    So do you get the chance to ride it much?

    Nice to see some track riders amongst us... Was hoping to get out to highplains raceway this summer, but just never made it. Looks like I have all winter to get this beauty track ready for next year though..

    HPR throws a free trackday as a X-mas special sometime in December or January (weather permitting of course)... a way for them to say thank you. Nothing like stretching the legs off your bike in 40 degree weather, drifting turns on cold pavement... so fun

    Nice bikes! I have an '08 R1 Raven that's bone stock.

    Right now I have a buddy's '07 'Busa in my shop that I finished up a nitrous & air shifter install on. It also has an extended swingarm, strapped frontend, sprockets, built tranny, Shinko, filter, programmer, etc. With a weak 60' it went 9.80 @ 139 on the motor with a 250lb rider.

    A while back I gave my buddy a huuuuuge head start with his R6 and passed him as I clicked 4th gear @ ~130/140.....on one tire.

    After reading this thread, tomorrow I'll have to pull the Raven out and knock the dust off of it.

    I have always wanted to take my bike to the track but the thought of her going down scares me. Being my only bike and being so clean I just can't bring my self to do it. Previous bikes were 2003 R6, 2004 R1, 2005 ZX-10R, all in less than 6 months. I get rid of bikes like I do with guns

    My 87 VFR700F2 has about 70k miles on it now, and needs a bit of tlc, as some asshat backed into it in a parking lot and knocked it over. My 01 FZ1 is approaching 50K miles and is my daily transportation anytime there's not snowpack on the streets (and sometimes when there is and I'm not paying attention to the weather forecast).

    ignorance. Ever found a liberal that you can have a discussion with?
