  1. so if i crash it really wont matter besides i still am a provi? Thats not bad then! Being told all weekend not to crash is a seriouse mental block out there on the track. If crashing doesnt matter i will be able to ride normal again lol.
  2. guess we will be doing fasstrx then lol. With my race class out of the way can i race any race anytime? What happens if i do crash in 1st 2 races?
  3. I think we r only going to do wera races,but maybe some fasttrax races not sure???
  4. man u prob could get allot more bike for that $$$$$. U have that much cash? or u need to finance? Katana is a good bike,but very heavy.
  5. We are all going to race the endurance races once we get our official licence.
  6. welcome man! Im in beechmont so were sorta close. What r u going to pay for that 600?
  7. I recomend you go with some people that have been before just to help you learn the ropes! When are you guys going?
  8. wait till Sunday and come down to ky with us!
  9. i found on DmV.org this Lane Splitting Although lane splitting (the act of moving between cars to the front of traffic) sparks all types of ire from motorists, it is legal in many states. And considering motorcycles are extremely vulnerable on the road, it is not a bad idea to get in the clear. That is what the tactic is designed to do in the first place―remove obstacles from riders, not get them to a place any quicker than one of their four-wheeled brethren. Of course, you will want to use extra caution moving to the front of the pack. The best thing you can possibly do to improve your traffic skills is to sign up for a Motorcycle Safety Foundation course. They offer classes in each state for both the novice and experienced rider. It didnt say what states were legal though. I was searching under ohio though. Will keep looking!
  10. I think i will be at the wera race in tn this april! I will be wearing a fashonable orange shirt so please dont run me over lol!
  11. you deff will need to buy good gloves! Boots are not just for your foot they are for your ankle too! As for sizing a leather suit you really need to try some on b4 you buy if at all possible. Make sure you get leathers with built in protectors and buy a good back protector for under the leather(should be considerd when sizing the suit as well). if you buy leathers you want to only do it once if possible so make sure they are at least double stitched and have multiple layers of leather in the impact areas.
  12. it was $30!!!!!!! we didnt stay Sunday because of hail.
  13. it was a cold day on Sat,but it was Sunny and 45deg out. We all passed our race school with team chicago and now can go race with wera and fasttracs. It was so fun to hit the track again!
  14. it said she was wearing boots???? Anyone know what happend? That was sick!
  15. It did really suck when it happend to me. I had just detailed the whole bike with the plastics off and waxed the plastics. I even had fired it up before putting it back together and all was good. I got geared up and made it to the end of the driveway and boom! It was so stupid and I hope it doesnt happen to anyone else. At least i was still in the driveway!
  16. lol the kawi thing got to u didnt it. I just think that it can happen to anyone.
  17. ninja nick u calling me a douch. It happend to me and i am very very mechanically inclined and have changed oil in cars,bikes and boats at least 100 times. It happend to me and i learned the hard way. At least you got a heads up on here so it doesnt happen to you! U cant be perfect because you have a kawi lol
  18. lol i've done the oil filter thing with the extra o-ring and no wire would have helped that explosion!lol
  19. Its for track days and racing. Just depends on which track day organization its for. I recomend doing it if you plan on going to the track no matter what group your in just because once its done you dont have to worry about it.
  20. I am in the process of wire tieng 3 bikes. It was really not as bad as people made it out to be. Dewalt bits are 2nd best and the Rigid brand is the best by far! The drain plug is a easy buy at $12 and is worth it. get a K&N filter cause its pre-drilled. Yea i dont understand the reason these things have to be tied either,but Mine and my friends are almost done.
  21. thats a long ride! I dont think i will ever ride down to the gap because i'm scared i wont have a ride home when my bike gets slayed by the dragon lol
  22. I am a pipe fitter. This job is deff a do it yourself job. Dig up the pipe and find a good peice to hook onto. Most likely its a 2" Pvc pipe and has froze and broke. Once you know the size go to home depot buy a stick of that size pipe and buy ferncos(rubber peices about 4" long with 2 bands on them) Cut the bad peice out with hack saw and fit new pipe in and tighten ferncos. If there are bends in it you can also buy them at the depot,but you will need to buy the pvc cleaner and glue kit. Extreamly easy to do!
  23. WELCOME! better hurry up those projects summer is here!
