Hoping someone here can help. I know too far back is just as bad (or worse) than too far forward. Bought a 6x12 V nose style single axle trailer and plan to mount two wheel chocks in it. (Pitbull or similiar aren't feasible right now). How far from the front of the trailer should I mount the...

Update: Cool seller. It arrived quickly and just in time for my Saturday track day. Thanks! Would do business with again.

PayPal sent! :D

I'll take it, accept PayPal?

Not much else going on in NY thanks to Mother Nature and Jack Frost having a festival out there in the frozen tundra I call home. Just slinging paint for customers and day dreaming of warm weather and open track ahead of me. :)

New lid (crashed my old one), buy chest protector and debating on laying down a fresh paintjob. Prettying up other peoples bikes now has me thinking mine looks shabby. :)

I know I'm SUPER late to this topic but I figured if someone else has troubles, I could maybe help them. I do paintwork for a living but don't post in here much since there are a few in here who already have active topics on this. My shop Is Not Just Paint and I can be found online at...

Thanks everyone, (un)fortunately I have a looooong off season here in NY to further my research but I think you guys gave me a great direction to go in. BTW, broken ribs suck sooooo much!

Havoc, I have this one http://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/alpinestars-track-protection-vest?utm_source=product&kwd=&gclid=Cj0KEQjwyrqgBRDepamt-LWA2oABEiQAV7nwwK4oOfbUf2lnlSgabJtDutBeI5ZElOhqAUR0j4c1VdwaAtS48P8HAQ While I can't say for certain as every impact is different, it did little for my...
