Wait Ananda, you forgot to mention my super slide in turn 7. I mean come on, were you really waiting on me to post about it? Nah Im too busy looking for parts to get my bike to 90% asap. Acutally the levers will be done in about 5 mins, but as I pound this wendys to the face Im ordering barends, and most likey a new half exhaust system if I can find that link..... Already got oil and a filter and antifreeze so I ll be doing all that tomorrow night along with checking the bike over. I rode it around the block got up to 35ish in 3rd just to swap gears. I ll be reording the GP shift kit again, but thats ight. Okay now for hte WRECK!!! I had drug knee in turn 7 today and toe in turn 6 yesterday and was getting more and more comfy. Got bumped up today a group and was riding real well, but then just lost focus I think. Passed a dude on the back straight at the top speed I had hit in the 2 days, no idea what but Id say 145ish, I had hit 137 yday and earlier in the day, but I hit another gear before the wreck. Came into 6 a little hot, but held my line, but then 7 got me. Came over the hill wide, leaned a tad more and rolled into the throttle after a quick desell after the lean, just to havce the rear slide a bit, rolled into the throttle, stood it back up saving the turn, but then the rear shimmyed, the front started to shimmey, and then I was on my ass slidding as my bike was sliding in front of me. The exhaust on the left is rashed, BUT not all the way through. Im replacing that with a new one on order tonight, the front fearing is a little worn, the bar end is shaved 1/3 off which will be orderd in a minute, the shifter is a little worn but works, the side fearing needs some love too, and the footped took a little beating. Overall my friend looked at it, and was pretty surprised how it ended up as he totalled his CBR a month ago. I realized alot of things, first off, going down isnt that bad so long as you are GEARED correctly. My face mask is scrapped to hell, but my helmet is not scraped(most likely replacing it anyways), my leather jacket held up ok, tore on 2 seams BUT did not leave anything exposed and the armor did its job, my hip hurts like hell but the pants held up awesome. Gloves sucked, and ripped at the seam, BUT the padding was perfectly placed below it and my hand is fine. I was able to hold two thumbs in the air as I slid down into 8, right behind my bike. It stayed in 8 dropped a little fluid, anit and either oil or gas, Id say oil, but it started right up and is running fine. Glad Im ok, planning to hit those other track days and worry about cosmetics this winter. Good times, learned so much and had so much fun!
