Not mine, but this would be perfect for all of you who have even casually mentioned not wanting to risk your street rides at the track:

$1800!!!!

 

 

2001 F4i with track plastics, woodcraft rearsets and clip-ons.

 

Somebody needs to race the shit out of this thing with MotoSeries next year.  I bet it's capable of 1:13's in its current condition.  Are you?

Dammit!  I really want to get into track days next year for a season...  This would be freakin sweet!

[Bad324]

if the vfr was sold I think I'd have no choice but to pick this up and street it

[MidgetTodd]

Naw, I prefer 1000+cc. So I can smoke everyone down the straits and jam the brakes at the turn to test your patients and make you all pissy and shit

If I wouldn't have just bought the SV i'd be all over that!

Someone does it every track day

I can't afford a full race season on a big bike.  I might make it out for a couple rounds next year, but not enough to warrant a designated (full-sized) race bike. I have to rationalize the cost by being able to commute on it every so often.  I live on the West side and work out near your place...

 

I plan to run the full OMRL calendar, and I'll race whatever street bike I pick up when my schedule allows.  There's usually a couple of 5-7 week breaks in their season that will provide ample time to goof off at Nelson.

 

Will Todd let an SV650 run with 600 Superbike?  (novice)  

[jbot]

is there a particular reason you want to run the SV in the 600SBK? the SV class is pretty competitive.  but yeah, i'm sure he'd let you.

[CleaveTheGreat]

This is incredibly tempting

Just to race against people I know, but I guess most of them have white plates now anyway...

 

I'll have to see how things shake-down at the track day first anyway.

 

But really, an F4i is probably the perfect middle-ground for anyone who has ever wanted to own 1 track bike for their entire riding career...  It's a really forgiving chassis, but enough power to keep you in-touch with much newer bikes on the straights.

Oh man, this would be perfect... Too bad I'm looking at buying a condo in the next month or so... Hold on to it til Spring for me

 

Seriously though... Depending on how everything works out, I may be interested in the next month or two if it's not sold by then, but I need to close first then evaluate.
