  1. Hell no. I just don't want you to start crying and not come out to track days anymore.
  2. Keeping it simple, unloaded and fully extended and then with the rider on. You're looking to put the suspension in the sweet spot. Sometimes it can be done on stocker stuff sometimes it can't.
  3. it will take more than one other person to help you get it set. But I'm sure Steve and I can help you and we have chocks to do it as well.
  4. I can have them kidnapped for the weekend and returned first thing Monday morning for you.
  5. That's bullshit. You're going to need a better excuse than that. You can't even come out just for the track day at least!?!?
  6. That will work. I'm focused on making sure that if any part of the attachments fail, base, arm, screw backing out, etc. that I'm tethering to the body of the camera housing. You certainly did a good job though!
  7. Wow...so what Rossi and Mladin said was true! How did you get a picture of it!?!? PS - Pixies have ghetto booty!
  8. This explains why you are still in the Novice group. BOOM! Just like that! Brian style!
  9. Let's see...at a track day and it's raining. Options: 1- go out in the rain to be a better rider (but don't push it because after all we don't know our limits if we don't push things) and risk not just losing the cost of the track day but damaging your bike in the process thusly costing you more money. 2 - don't go out saving yourself the potential cost of repairing your bike because you went out unnecessarily and crashed and hope for some dry time later on and be a big ol' giant pussy. Hhhhmm....man that's a tough one.
  10. I read in an interview that both Rossi and Mladin use a lesser know version of pixie dust which makes them one with their bikes.
  11. I've been doing it for over 4 years but I'm also on an unlimited plan.
  12. All I can say is I've been on the track for 2 years not and I have yet to put knee to pavement. But that doesn't stop me from running a :19 a nelsons and a :09 at beaver. Mid-O is a whole other story for me though. More time there and I should get better.
  13. Root your phone and use the VZW hotspot/tether for free.
  14. Your tires circumference will def. play a roll in setting it up. I don't know if 2mm difference will be enough to cause you major concern but in the end yes, I believe you'd take that difference out of the shim at the top of the shock mount. It's all about keeping the geometry of the bike in it's "sweet spot". Brian can also verify this as well if he is able to get his geriatric ass to the keyboard.
  15. Drop the forks in the triples 5mm and add 10mm to the rear shock if you don't already have that done. Edit: you should recheck your sag after this also.
  16. Keep the gear and use it to track the 1098.
  17. That is exactly why one of us needs to hit the damn lottery and then build a nice new race track for just these types of occasions.
  18. Dude...you weren't supposed to tell anyone you asked to see my pierced "d" as you liked putting it.
  19. Interesting. Then that begs the question to Matt, have you done anything recently to the bike? Like adding a Bazzaz controller! Or did you let Craig stand or put his hands on it at any time recently?
