Time for a second bike I guess.

don't go looking all new gen and stuff...at least not for a couple years

when the kinks are worked out with the 1k, I may sell the 750 and pick up a 300 or SV,,,,but I'm afraid if I ride that R6, I'll end up going a different route.

Poor Stoppable

Should have never sent him the link to the 750.....really did start all this

Just wait till the leader bike is 100%....then you are going to need to really build that R6 to stay in the draft, Dan.

hope one of the "things" is a new clutch

hey, you should be completely healed up by then, no?

call them up, see if you could buy the 12 day at regular price and use two of the days this year?!?!  You would have to work out the numbers to see if it is worth it, seeing that the package "normally" goes on sale before/around Christmas

I have 1 day left in this years package and already purchased the 12 day for next year....so I'm going to see if using a day is possible

As usual....in

Me either, but something has to generate money for more track time

Setting my personal best at Main....see a few spots that could be improved upon, but it will take a lot of work to get into the teens.

Guess I can no longer say "I haven't had a good, issue free, day at Summit"

after I saw it again, has way too much top end to be a 100....just looked small at first glance....still a lot of closing speed on the front straight

slow outlap because I didn't turn on the tire warmers...

Had an experience with the tall grass at the end.  Was shifting from the right turn (7) to the left (8) and my foot slipped off the right foot peg.  Bike went crazy and I had to stand it up and ride it out like a dirt bike!  The poor corner worker probably thought I was aiming at him.

 

holy shit....beyond lucky on that one. Was that an XR-100 out there in intermediate @ 12:10?

Nice footage guys! I think I only ran my gopro one session this entire weekend. 

The thing is worthless if it is off or in the pit.  Even the first session on a bike and track I didn't know was recorded.  I OK never watching it, but at least it is there if I needed to learn something from it.....at least that is why I'm running at least 1 camera every session.

I want to do this event on Sunday (novice class, and first time) but don't have a truck or trailer hitch to get my bike over to Indiana. 

Anyone headed that way from Dublin with extra space or a tow hitch? I could pay for trailer rental and gas!

Wish I could help you out, but the event became very doubtful for me after this weekend.....need to work on the new bike and save a little $ for suspension work and a new front tire.

Nice video!  and nice riding Tim!  Wish N2 wasn't so structured and we could bump between groups....would love to play around with you guys in intermediate for a session.

Couple videos from Summit, first one was from my bike with @Jester_ chasing me down; second one is on the back of @RonStopable fighting off @TRMN8TR and I show up for the last few minutes. 

Thanks for the great trip guys!  More video to come...

Those will likely be my next pair of boots.

Only thing I'm not crazy about, the zipper and flap cover being on the inside could potentially add snag points with the bike.

"I'd give the R6 a big two thumbs up, but I can't leave go of the throttle"

Started during lunch that day; had to make a decision between continuing to baby it in the wet(on a rear slick) or drinking heavily....

Wow, never realized that Ron now has an annual walk of shame at Road Atlanta.

Then there was the whole giant diesel truck knocking at the porta-john door incident....

For how shitty the weather was, that was still a fun trip

Don't forget the walk of shame before more drinking!

Im sure we will tell the story at NCBike Friday night. Everyone should stop down. 

Agree, Ron can get a hazy first hand account of the ejection and all.....that along with liquor drinks will make it much more vivid then typing/reading it

So glad Brandon told me this story.

it is the stuff of legends!

You couldn't make that shit up

Think that is how it is looking currently.

Then the me and Brandon following in his rig with his 675, my 1k and John's/Jinu's 675.

If Ron annoys you too much on the trip (like trying to instigate a burnout), you can always toss him from the vehicle, just let us know where and we can run...errr...I mean pick him up.

I told you not to feather the clutch when doing burnouts!

Possibly...wasn't planning on selling to till the spring, but thought I might give you a jump start on getting it cleaned up for next year lol

If everything goes as planned I'll be making the decision next weekend.

Jeff, how would you like to get back on a 7fiddy?

If I ever get a dedicated track bike, my street bike will not be a super sport lol.

well that seems sell fulfilling.....buy a comfy street bike and you have a track bike
