Do sportbikes bring out the punk in you?
A few months ago the city repaved out little street racetrack so now it feels like its grated and very rough. Well...come to find out we are now running only 5-10mph slower, just letting the bike move all around (it feels like riding on dirt, but no slip). The road is absolutely shreading my race tires tho...tires look 2x as bad as the last track day I've done. This is def. an awesome learning experience with the front and rear moving all around...getting used to it like it's just typical riding.
Cops thought we wouldn't ride it fast...little do they know.

They take hot tar, dump it all over the road, and then they dump small stones all over it.

the common backroad that I almost always take home when on the bike had that done spring of '09. I had never seen that before and there were no signs of the loose gravel till like 50 feet after you were already on it. I was into a nice gradual turn and started to hit that shit and almost lost the front end. That shit sucked, and all it does now that the loose shit is gone is make a lot of road noise. Whats the point of it?
