I love my R1, I mean I sing it to sleep at night. Recently I discovered the joy of track days, hence I am now addicted to track days. I thought about buying some one's used track bike because I can't stand the thought of not being able to ride my precious baby because she's only good on the track and I'm a little worried about dropping her. Also I don't see myself being able to buy anything close to what the R1 is capable of for the price I can afford. Then it hit me, why can't I make my R1 be both my track bike and street. I don't want to ruin the pretty street plastics because they're just too damn expensive to replace, so why not buy a set of track plastics and just switch out when I'm ready to go to the track. I realize it would be quite the process to remove all the stock plastics, headlight assembly, turn signals, and tail light one or two weekends a month, but it kinda seems worth it. Additionally I could have all the nifty and oh so expensive upgrades on my street bike with out having to shell out for the same parts for two different bikes. Am I just plain naive or does anyone else do this?
