    Thanks for the bump starts

    My bike's starter decided to fail at Summit Point on Monday, so I had to get my bike bump-started all day. I want to give a shout out to all my pit neighbors who gave me pushes to help me participate all day! I put in a new starter today and the bike should get going under its own power next time.

    Anything to prep for race school

    Hi, I'm signed up for the race school at NCBike May 1. Anything I ought to do to prepare? I'm planning on going ahead with all the safety wire required by WERA, and am running just water + water wetter for coolant. That will be my first time back on the track since last year, so I am prepared to...

    Congrats to Xavier

    After the bike trouble yesterday, great job getting 4th in the rain! I guess you fixed whatever was making it overheat?

    Anybody with AIM SOLO lap timer data for NJMP Thunderbolt?

    Hey, I just got one of the AIM SOLO 2 lap timers, used it for the first time yesterday at NJMP. Trying to figure out how to use the race studio software that comes with it. I think the most helpful thing is comparing speed vs location on track, so with each lap you compare, you can see which...

    Tips for R1 on track

    Hi, this will be my second full season on the track with N2. Last year, I used my street Yamaha FZ1; it was reasonably fast and I think a great bike to learn on. I picked up a 2010 R1 over the winter and plan on using it this season. I wanted an R6, but I got a good deal on a race-ready track...

    NJMP 9/4/17 I group crash in the grass

    I don't know who this was, couldn't make out the bike numbers, but there was a off-in-the-grass low-speed crash that I saw looking back through some old video from last season. It was off in the grass out of turn 1, I think used front brake and turned dead sideways and did a low-speed high...

    How to evaluate life left in used slicks?

    I recently bought a track bike for next season, and the seller gave me 5 sets of used race slicks (Dunlop) and a set of race rain tires. Some are smooth, some are rough, some have the blue on the outside and some don't, but I know the outside appearance changes pretty quick and can go from...

    Quickshifter and side stand?

    Just bought an R1 that came equipped with a dynojet quickshifter and no kickstand. Looks like the quickshifter is attached to one of the side stand mounting points. I am a little uncomfortable trying to hold the bike with one hand while reaching around for a rear stand, so I would prefer to...

    Who has just one glove in a set?

    After a crash earlier this year, my right glove was destroyed (fingers ripped, hole in palm). The left glove has some light scuffing but is just fine. It pains me to throw away a serviceable glove when they cost so much, so out of curiosity I'm wondering if this happens to many people...

    Novice group 5/1/17 - did you go off track?

    I have some video footage of somebody going off track if whoever it is would like to see it for educational purposes. White bike, yellow tire trim, black jacket with yellow helmet; couldn't see the bike number. PM me and I'll find some way to share.

    Aluminum/magnetic oil drain plug?

    I was looking at buying a pre-drilled oil drain plug to save the trouble of drilling myself for safety wire. There are a bunch of pre-drilled magnetic drain plugs on ebay and performance shops, but they all seem to be made of aluminum and on some of them, the top of the bolt head is mostly...

    First N2 track day, NJMP

    Hi all, Rider from MD, new to N2. Going to my first track day at NJMP Thunderbolt. My only track experience to date is taking the 2-day YCRS course at Thunderbolt earlier this summer; wanted to return to a familiar track and practice what I learned. This is the first time I'll be taking my...
