First trackday after 5 years...

Was it that obvious? LOL It's the whole 4-stroke thing that was killing me there. I've been used to a 2-stroke mini for years now. I couldn't downshift and get the bike under control well enough. Now that I know how to mod the clutch to make the slipper clutch actually WORK...I expect that to be a lot better and finally brake where I know I can. My mid corner speed was horrible, the suspension is just not working right there. However, I think I know what's wrong and expect to drop at least 3 or 4 seconds next time I go back.

There were probably about 20ish people there. It's run by the track itself and we share the day with cars. Just one motorcycle group and 3 car groups.

Troy...you should do the turn1 trackday the week before. No stupid membership fees. I plan on going the 13th with a better clutch and fixed suspension!
