If any of you need a bike to ride, I'll have either a 600 or 650 ready to roll by then....hopefully a yz250 too, but I don't think that will work too well on the big track.



Hopefully,I'll have that 650 sorted out soon for ya !

@NinjaDoc. I think at N2 days you can go out for the first session or two without prepping your bike in a pre-novice group.  Can regular N2 participants confirm that?  Bring the new duc out!

This free trial group is for the street rider who’s unsure about signing up for a full day of riding. The Intro group attends a Novice classroom session and gets on the track for two 15-20 minute Novice riding sessions in the morning rotation. There is no bike preparation requirement; however, participants are required to pass technical inspection.

 

This is what I found on the Intro group.

I'd imagine that intro group is led(towed) by an instructor at a pretty mild pace.....cannot speak from experience tho.

I'll just use this instead of buying a rear tire. :) 

Either that or I've got a few takesoffs.  I had a blast on Jeff's 650, think it would be a great option to reduce the tire cost(vs 600 & 750) while still pushing and learning.  Only time will tell.

I have a good front, I just don't think either rear I have will make it a day.

GPA pros from CJ.....debating with myself about picking up Brian's tires he has listed up, but I already have 5 or 6 rears that need to be used up lol

You ever mix the dunlops with Pirelli?

yeah, I've run Dunlop front with Pirelli rear and it was the best of both, planted/stable front under braking with amazing rear feel & confidence under drive, even when laying rubber down all over the place.

Pirelli front with Dunlop rear shouldn't change much geometry wise.....don't think it is playing into the strengths of either tire, but I wouldn't have a problem riding on it.

I like the pirelli front. I may have to try some dunlops one of these days.

Toss one on that extra bike of yours and I'll help you out with this, brother.

I loved the pirelli front (and rear, really), but it does take some getting used to.  First time I rode it I thought I had a flat tire or my handle bars were loose or something! Haha

Currently a pile of parts in a pallet rack lol never put it together after the 750 swap.  Just bolted the subframe on and got the electronics in place yesterday, 

Tank is OEM and in good shape, fairings will be interesting, I have my rashed set that will need repair and a back up I bought a long time ago that I never mounted up.

I spoke with some guys at N2 and they said that they only have 5 intro spots but none of them are claimed yet for these dates. Also if you do sign up for the full day it would be at a discounted rate.

 

So depending on where you live you are getting a free trip to and from the track, 2 sessions free to try it out and if you want to sign up for the rest of the day its at a discounted rate. Doesnt seem like we have a whole lot of interest yet for first timers.

I'm about ready to hit the track pipe again, boys.

Does this mean you're sitting for the bar exam as I type this?  Ohio kicked off this morning at 8:00.  Done Thursday at noon.
