this is something i probably wont pick up for atleast a year.

but... what is a nice track bike to pick up

my plan is to pick up a salvaged title bike..

with cosmetic damages.

and go from there.

the more i ride the twisties the more i enjoy it.

and id rather get out on the track and be safe then get hit by a car or run into a guard rail or something.

not really, i picked up my R6 last season due to it being highly recommend as the best pick for a track bike. Highly used in the racing circuit so plenty of parts, great power on the top end and handle well.

most people seem to say a 600 or 750 is the way to go on the track and is probably user preference because the minor differences in power and agility will be lost on even the "average" track rider. everyone says to check out the WERA boards for good deals on track/wrecked bikes.

I went with a GSX-R750 for the track. I'd recomend looking through the classifieds on the WERA board to get an idea of what people are tracking. Also a good place to find a track bike (salvage title and maybe already with race parts).

if you get an r6 make sure it comes with at least 2 spare motors.

gixxer = teh track bike

/thread

+1

Plenty of spare blown motors out there in Ohio and MI

And +1 for a 650 to really learn on. Even my 03 600 power caught me a few times.
