I just bought A Twist of the Wrist 2 and it has a bonus section that Keith Code does a very good walkthrough with some tips on how to adjust and tune SAG. Also a very good DVD for anyone wanting to learn some tips to cornering. Check it out!
I've been too Daytona 200 race, very cool experience I'm happy it found someone to keep race going. My fav spot was the pit, very cool to watch bikes get prepped and riders and can't forget umbrella girls!!! Lol
very good advice, i was wondering if this hot weather affects braking? i've noticed the past couple hot days i locked up easier but i was braking a little stronger but nothing out of the ordinary. also the flat spot on worn 180 or 190 tires in the middle probably increases tire contact but how is braking affected? mine are worn in the middle and it feels like sliding right on it wearing the middle down more. what compound tires are made out of have better braking power? i have a medium compound that have good mileage use on them. 2 yrs. and the middle is just getting worn down.
the tires are a big part in stopping so good tires good stopping power. i know guys who ride with belts in the tire showing and still stop a little. some tires flatten out and the front tire flattens but thats wear and tire companies know this.
same thing happened to me. my bike was under a truck that was lifted when it was all over. this guy though def stopped too soon but one look at my back tire and everyone would have said it was my almost bald tire. anyways i don't even look at my speed anymore my eyes are up front and always scanning the road. ride safe or ride safer anything could happen at anytime
i was at taco bell 2hrs before he crashed. we all were talking and laughing and talking about the recnet body damage he got from a crash before. its crazy how life does it thing and you have to keep going to move on. sam was a good dude and im very sorry too hear of his passing. may he rest in peace.
i was looking into the future of going to this event in florida. i was wondering if any OR peeps might be thinking as well of going or are already going. i have my way down and taking the bike in a pickup bed (sportbike:biker:). i would like to maybe get in touch with some people so i'm not riding alone so much:(. i'm staying the whole time the event is there so looking forward to some good times. holla if you wanna ride whenever if anyone makes it.PEACE:)
