Our company had 11 trucks hit.

I will be putting my cabin cruiser & jetski on Lake Erie on to our marina dock start of next month.

Welp, it was a good run lol. JK Cool merger.

Hmmmm, I feel like this is my kind of guy. Let's go... I'll try to keep up.

I'm sorry, I still has your boots that you lent dude the other weekend... Need to get those back to you sometime.

Please RTV your oil drain, filter and fill cap. I believe it's required, but regardless, it's cheap insurance knowing you hopefully won't dump oil all over the track and ruin not only your day, but everyone elses as well.

Yes, we run G&J quite frequently. As snot just mentioned, we just had a night race and day sprint race there this past weekend.

Never heard of this? What track is it? We are always entertaining the idea of new tracks -

Sept 5 @ Circleville - 4 hour endurance race Sept 6 @ Circleville - Spring Races Sept 19/20 - Circleville - Practice Saturday Sprint Races Sunday Oct 4/5 - Circleville - Practice Saturday Sprint Races Sunday

Welcome to Ohio! Very few of us ride Harley's, but we always welcome any bike to come and ride! Southeastern Ohio has so many phenomenal roads to ride! You'll love it!

Are you running hypersmooth stabilization? Not sure which GoPro you have, but it's possible you are recording at too high resolution/FPS and they are shutting down hypersmooth stabilization. Run 1080/60 and the camera stabilization is phenomenal. This could be your issue.

Yea, I saw the article yesterday on Facebook. Always a terrible thing to read, especially to hear it happened on his birthday. Rest in Peace @LINK and my thoughts are with all his friends and family.

derekclouser@gmail.com --- thanks man

Thank you! Do you think my boot is repairable? (Pic above)

I bought Supertech R's this offseason because I was tired of replacing my boots every year (between Mini crashing and sole replacement). I wanted a set that could be sent back to A* and have them repaired. Well after 3 months of mini racing and big bike track days, because the outer zipper is on the outside of the boot, I've rubbed the zipper against the asphalt and it needs replaced. I've also crashed a few too many times and there's some other damage I'd like to have them fix. Has anyone does this before? Do I just contact their support on their website for more info? How much am I looking at spending (ballpark)? How long should I expect to be without boots. I've already purchased another set of boots to keep me going in the meantime. Just curious what others experiences were. TIA.

Relax, this isn't meant to be a pissing contest. Andy, You were 6 seconds off the pace from Farkas who rides almost an identical bike to you (1.11.8 vs 1.17.6). Yes, you have a weight disadvantage, but there is lots of time to be made up in places. Maybe his suggestions will help or maybe you have the best line, but I will admit the bike does look pointed in the wrong direction. No sense in having a pissing contest to prove you being right or him being wrong. Just take it with a grain of salt and see if it helps. If it doesn't, congratulations. None of us are going pro, so no sense in not just listening and trying to improve. Prime example for me was seeing this photo I realize I wasn't getting the bike turned even though I thought I had the best line. Made some adjustments and cut a good amount of time off my laps from last year. The community is small and we all need to support everyone in getting better.

Some photos from Mid-O last track day.

How new are the rims? I'm assuming the rear is OEM, but the front was purchased when? Was it new or was it a used one? If used, what year? Edit (some more questions: Looks like it still has the standard rear spring correct? Any updates to the front springs or still OEM? What main/pilot jets are in the carb? Do you still have the OEM front?

The market in the short term is very unpredictable. The market in the long term is very predictable. Ride it out and if you have money to invest, buying when it's low is always a great strategy.

Dustin May is a 230lb guy who finished 2nd in stockmoto expert championship last year! Weight is a disadvantage, but it certainly won't hold you back from competing, especially in novice.

Always flicking off the photographer... Camera takes good photos though.
