You sound hard on your helmets, LMAO! I should be at NJMP that day!

They're the best! I've bough all my helmets from them for the past 20 years. Custom fit at no extra charge.

Do you need a part? Maybe something you could fix? Check with The Service Pavilion. They are an Arai dealer. They have replacement parts. Not sure if they do repairs. theservicepavilion.com

Even some hypersport street tires like the Bridgestone S23 will work pretty well unless there is standing water, and when it dries out, you don't have to change back to something else. But yeah, unless you have an elite membership, you can't cancel this close and get any credit/refund. Page 5...

I'll be there for the July and August events. Hope to see you there! Riding on the track is addicting and you'll learn a lot more than you would just riding on it street. Everyone is super helpful. The Control Riders are there to help!

By standard, I meant what we used to call "UJMs". A naked upright bike that's still fun on the track, but easier on your back if you're also going to ride it on the street. Something like a Yamaha MT09 or MT07. Agree with Dominick re: displacement. Those minigp young kids on their Moriwakis...

You'll see all types in all groups. I personally would steer away from a 1000 when starting out track riding. A 600 would be fine. Do you have a bike to use now? Hell, I don't want a 1000 now, happy with my R6. LOL. If you have a bike, bring it for now. If you're looking to buy a dedicated...

^^^^^^ this None of them will recommend flipping, Pirelli included. I've flipped Pirelli slicks and DOT races with fine results. Never the front, however.

Also, if you want some online instruction prior, the Yamaha Champions Riding School has a series of courses called ChampU. There is one specific to track riding, and another that is their core curriculum. The code N2ROCKS will get you a 20% discount. Of course, their in-person instruction is...

Looks like it as of now. Probably best to sign up sooner than later. I don't know how soon RA sells out.

Glad your first day went well! ATP is an excellent choice for addtional instruction! Nope, don't need a new set of tires for each track day. As long as there is about 50% tread left, you're fine. For coaching, a set of hypersport street tires will last me a season, not sure how many days that...

yup, that's the fear, it either vibrates loose, or wasn't properly torqued and falls out. Then oil dumps and it takes hours for clean up, depending on if the rider notices and gets off the track and/or is black flagged quickly.

I think the concern is more about the drain plug coming loose and falling out, rather than something hitting it. I guess it would depend on the location of the drain plug. Some of my bikes have them coming out the side, some the bottom...

When you signed up, did you select the highlighted below: If so, you should be fine. The race school is a separate charge on top of the track day. It's not sold out, you have to be in intermediate or advanced to sign up for that. Are you the Daniel signed up, bike 211, member number #82631? If...

If you're asking if it'll pass tech, yes. Assuming of course, there is no crash damage. We don't check, but it's good to replace your helmet every 5 years from date of manufacture. Welcome! Also, moving from classified section to paddock section
