jbot Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 i'll be leeching off of trmn8tr in his F150 with a enclosed trailer. i don't remember details like color.just look for a obnoxious blue (and bits of yellow) 600rr with the number "99" haphazardly placed around the bike. Brandon has a pretty white daytona 675 with actual neato stickers and stuff, and his number is "11". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blue03636 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Am I cool enough to hang with the OR crowd? If so, block off a space for a van and pop up camper please.Shouldn't be an issue Marty. I should be there by 7 and will have orange flagging marking off spots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 This is shaping up to be a good outing! We should have about 8-10 riders, so you better mark off a bunch of spots! LOL! Steve and I should be there around 7am on Sat.And Jinu....don't forget my box of zipties!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RVTPilot Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 Question...might anyone have a spare back protector that is going? Kev has extolled the virtues of them, and while I do have a CE back pad in my welder's suit, I'd like to try one. Plus, I am a little barrel chested, and I am told it has some girdle-like slimming features. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Photos by Marty Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 I'm still bringing my gear, but will be severely limited in mobility since I'm doing the crash truck. Primarily doing some marketing shots for Todd. But once the track festivities end, I'm willing to do group shots and individual non-track riding shots.Shefftucky Lake R1? I'm off of Moore just south of Electric. We'll have to hit QSL this season. Tonight's out since I have to go pick up the camper and get my stuff ready to go.

Though you are bit more svelt and in shape compared to myself. Maybe Motoseries has rentals or something at the track. Regardless, its my own fault for not being prepared.

Regardless, its my own fault for not being prepared. as long as your current protector is CE rated (which you said it is), it's fine and it'll meet requirements for open group. but yeah, if you want more "peace of mind", then a dedicated back protector is hard to beat. a chest protector is very good too... i don't have one of those yet cause i'm a cheap bastard but i plan on getting one shortly.

redkow97 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 i bet mine would fit. it's this model in Large, I believe. Not really a fully-on race oriented model, actually... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is that a back protector or a catcher's chest pad? Looks uber protective, though. I likes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redkow97 Posted June 23, 2011 Report Share Posted June 23, 2011 $40 on closeout from Irony Pony in either late 2007, or early 2008. I use the little bag that came with it to carry my ratchet straps and bungies for the trailer now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Well, new pads got installed last night. Some CL59's since getting RJL's was not an option. I'm not expecting them to be as good as the RJL's I had on the gixxer but we'll see. Since I'll be towing Steve around for a couple laps it'll help me bed them in a little.Will be packing up today and heading to Steve's place to get his pile loaded up for the drive tomorrow morning.

madcat6183 Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 Agreed with what he said. CL's are the best pads I've had, naturally only used EBCs and CLs but I love them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
r1crusher Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 My problem will be getting them hot enough to work at their best. I'm a slow fat turd out there unlike the rest of you goons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJC1000rr Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 I heart my Vesrah SRJL's over the RJL's anyday of the week. Made a big difference in braking and my confidence in late braking if needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 are the "race" brake pads like THAT much better than something like the CL SBK5 or whatever street/track pads?I can't say if the XBK5s are better or worse. These were recommended to me as a substitute since Vesrah doesn't make an RJL for my ZX. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darud35 Posted June 24, 2011 Report Share Posted June 24, 2011 I will be there for my first track day! Just registered today. I will be on my 1098 with race replica skins and my buddy will be on his white 600rr. Come say Hi! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
