If they are teaching you trail braking after informing them that you are a new rider, you’re at the wrong track day. Make sure the focus is on smooth braking, accelerating, and proper lines for the street while turning.

The original 9 o’clock boy!

Knock $100 off that bike, plate it, ride it like you stole it. You should be vintage MX legal with that bike too. Of all my motorcycles, I’ve had more fun/ride on my $400 vintage MX bike than any other bike I’ve owned:

Precisely!

You must live in my neighborhood! that Lotus is usually parked at the apartment complex across the Greenway from the tennis courts. I’v seen most of the other cars and know where most of the pictures have been taken. There is a Ferrari repair shop next to the whole foods that had anot MM in it. There’s a number of…

The fun doesn’t stop when the sun goes down either!

When you mentioned junkyard parts, I was wondering if you were pulling turbo systems off old Saabs. The turbo, knock detect controller, piping, and intercooler can all be had for relatively cheap. You need to know what mods to make to the controller to make the knock detect work on a different engine but other than…

You underestimate the power and speed of image based control systems. The issue here is that the development costs and costs associated with errors of the system, say a situation the programmers didn’t account for, far outweigh the cost of the people.

As the temperatures get more extreme, you lose the ability to stay cool while moving. Your sweat response is not cooling off your body fast enough to counteract the energy you’re getting from the hot air moving past you. That is why it is recommended to cover up when riding in extreme heat. You body can regulate the…

Even for these events $250 is too much.

Water cooled motor would make wheel mounting more challenging. Doable, but nor worth it for the tradeoffs.
