  1. Considering it ... but... Lot of variables to take care of
  2. Thinking about riding around the good roads of north east again this Saturday. Been riding long miles to south and east for couple of weeks and its quite tiring. So planning on doing a moderate distance ride around most of the good roads in north east itself. Weather looks okay for now. Will update details later based on interest . Wont be a hyper sport pace, will be moderate pace. Edit: new info We can meet here by 9:30 am 625 East Lincolnway Minerva‎ OH‎ 44657 United States Will try to ride around 4 hours and end in Lisbon If others are okay will grab a bite from infamous std Never did this kind of relaxed ride this season, all were no stop mega milers Pace will be moderate, last few times we ended up pushing a bit Good roads , good weather??? , just enjoy The day As always IT'S NO RACE JUST PACE
  3. u mean make it stiffer to rebound quick? sorry about silly question, like i said i have no idea about suspension adjustment
  4. went to ride the streets today after my first track day. Maaan, for sure that session made a lot of difference. I was no longer apprehensive about some problem left handers and some other random stuff. I was more confident as i knew my bike could handle if needed to push it harder. I was not afraid to lean into the curve and many many other positives which i cannot describe in words. I never thought this much improvement could be gained from one session, definitely want to do couple more novice days to keep improving. I think its the repetitive tackling curves that helps develop sort of muscle memory. I suggest hitting the streets as soon you done with a track day to feel the difference. So if becoming better on street is ur aim definitely few track days, no need to go intermediate etc just go do it blue, u think the rebound is more ? keith stone suggest something to make my ride smooth
  5. yep, i will be riding sat for sure, planning on a tour or NE itself, been doing mega miles down south and east etc for some weeks, kinda getting beat up with those ride, half the distance will be better i guess for a relaxed ride for next couple of weekends Today was a nice day to ride, we put around 100 miles, wish there were more guys in and around here to come out and join for quick rides.
  6. ah now, u have to come to canfeild to join our group ride
  7. today was awesome weather, got stuck with work bikerboy might be joining tomorrow, we can meet at were 9 meets 30 and go from there
  8. Possibly no one around since its a working day, i might be able to get off work by 12ish and wish to go for a ride afterwards. If any one around having a free day or afternoon-evening wants to ride we can work out some thing. Planning on riding routes in neo region itself, like 9, 646, 152, 164, 524 etc not in that order.
  9. Hey I was thinking kinda same, how could you Say that from the picture? I know pretty much jack crap about suspension
  10. yea am scared to carry my speed to the corner, i slow down too early when approaching a turn i guess. had a good time flinging heavy to me vfr around, since it was clockwise track the right side of the tire got chewed up hope it wont cause much problem on track
  11. thx guys, yea need to do some more get more used to taking the corners easy, definitely feel very comfortable now. But i am sure about one thing, not going to try to go up to intermediate advanced etc. Just want to stick to the streets. my bad old school, u get 7 20 min session like blue said, very good experience.
  12. Thank you guys, wish there was some access to record corners at least for one video Couple more novice classes will definitely help with problem areas, may be Nelson ledges will help to overcome my fear of broken roads
  13. 26 is pretty broken up too, 800 looks good. 148 seems like new pavement, 152 new pavement. 9 looks alright south ways. 78 on east side is just big sweepers boring but good condition
  14. sorry link , nothing from the tracks since i dont have nay access or angle to get good views from spectator stands
  15. u mean to prep? or buying the bike? this is my street vfr, just blue tapped it thats all ...2$ i just wanted to learn to be comfy with corners thats all, i did not even rip it open in the straights.
  16. Yesterday at PIRC i had my track day, awesome experience. Thx to all the staff and other racers that helped out esp Jinu Made a very short video from the minimal footage i shot. Spent most days in class and on bike hence could not shoot what i had in mind. May be some other time. The on board footage is next to none since it will be boring for you guys to see me "put putting" around track in a snail pace. I promise next video will be even better if at all i make it back to the tracks. There were many beautiful people and machines there at track and since it was my first day didnt get around to meet and record them. Next time for sure. any ways enuf of the blabbering. Wish i had access to shoot some clips of people carving up corners which is the most beautiful thing from a track day http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eDpmcCcsJxs
  17. Thx Got some footage, enuf to make decent track day video if not a track video
  18. Its not gonna rain..... Just....Hail storms next weekend?
  19. haha nice one jerry, how much should i low ball him? As grapesmuggler puts it ... slightly used left testicle? did the track on this awesome track bike
  20. Back home, and zillion thx to jbot for the helping me with the dream of one track day atleast. Nice day, learned a lot about my bike, also realized i am no racer. prolly will be doing few more novice session to learn and never try anything above it. I prefer paced touring with my bike i guess and going to far and new destinations Nice to meet active OR fellows like link and R1, plus lot of other nice fellas. Started off with so much ideas for video and in the end didnt get any time at all, it was pretty much on the bike or in the class all the time.
