    Uwharrie Motorsports Park

    From what I've heard from organizers, car guys drop a lot more cash in general, so that's not surprising

    Motard Exclusion

    But I bet you're back on them every time by the time you hit 4/5 or 7 for sure :laugh: I always like to get a tow off the smaller bikes if I'm new to a track or need some refreshers. They usually have solid lines and corner speed. I don't have it as bad on a sv650, but watching some of the...

    2013 Street Triple R

    Damn, that's a nice bike and a nice garage. And two triumph listings in one day?? I have to remind myself I have too many bikes as it is. Good luck with the sale

    GoPro mounts and locations

    Yeah, I know that fear, lol. I try not to think about it. I got a 360 cam this year I put basically where the mirror would be, secondary safety tether to the fairing stay. Don't have to worry about framing, and I can look at inputs as well as body position all with one cam. I have a bad habit...

    April 29, NJMP

    Some of the turns did get a bit more room, 1 did for sure, but I forget the specifics. I was following the progress on socials where it was mentioned. It'll be weird without that bump I'm so used to, and that patch, but I'm really glad they're gone. Nice though, looking forward to being there a...

    Ken Hill Mastery Class

    Sounds awesome, I'm jealous. That 2up experience sounds wild. It's one thing to hear or watch or read how the fast guys handle brakes and throttle input, feeling it has got to be something else.

    April 29, NJMP

    Seems we skipped right past spring and straight into summer this year. I usually bring a couple jugs of pedialyte to help with hydration, along with water, but when it's hot it's HOT. How was the new pavement at NJMP?

    First timer 5/11 - Summit Point

    Not much else to add here... Seriously though, a bug exploded like a gallon of guts onto my visor I had to pit in and clean it to see. Definitely talk to a control rider early, have them show you the line and get you comfortable so you have a good time. The novice group looked huge on Monday...

    Track Day / Racing Checklist

    I keep a laminated checklist in my toolbox. But, I also have torque labels and drilled bolts for safety wire all over my bike... having all those labels and drilled bolts makes it hard to put anything on incorrectly, with them staring me in the face. Torque it, then wire/paint it. Like someone...

    Best solution for two sports bikes in truck bed?

    I used to do this, and honestly it's enough of an asspain I'd just get a trailer. But if you're determined, it'll fit, though I had an 8 ft bed and a short bed may need the tailgate down. Any decent ramp is fine, but I had to take the belly pan off to clear the apex where the ramp met the...

    2006 Triumph 675 Daytona $3800 OBO

    I might text you once I'm off work, need to see if I can find the space. I have two motorcycles I'm thinking of selling for room. Always a fan of the daytona, my old one was this year as well.

    Tire warmers and generator

    Agree, also good warmers probably save money in the long run, especially if you're fast enough to need them. A lightly used pair of a good brand can be had for a reasonable price. My cheap mj moto pair came with a bike, and work well enough, but if I was serious I'd try to find a good used pair.

    Motor Rebuild Question

    No need to rebuild unless the engine has problems, I've seen bikes with 15k+ track only miles. I've never needed to rebuild a street bike engine, even an older rsv4 which were supposed to be fragile. I check the valves more frequently is about it. If you're worried you can check compression...

    Tire warmers and generator

    I have a predator 2000 watt inverter, had it close to 10 years now and it does the job. I have cheap mj moto tire warmers but I've run my buddy's woodcraft warmers without issue. I haven't seen over 900W for either of those warmers.
