Hi all from Georgia! I'm a new N2 member and just wanted to say hello and maybe get some feedback.
I'm not "new" to operating a motorcycle, but don't feel I have control of it yet. As such, I'm considering taking a track day to improve my skills, especially in the curves. One thing, though: I ride a 2013 Yamaha FJR. I would like to bring it to a track day just to get familiar with its capabilities. Not necessarily to race, but to develop the technique necessary to be in control. Right now, I don't get that sense at all when negotiating curves. What say the group? Am I making a mistake of even thinking about bringing a "big" sport-tourer to a track day, or should I save my pennies and buy an inexpensive track-ready sports bike before attempting such a venture?
