Default SBR trackday Nov 8

Anyone going? http://www.sbrtrackday.com/ Ken and Santiago run a great show. I was there for the first one they put on. From that experience I'd definitely recommend them. I'm going to try and be at this one. Will be the first time on the F4 after fixing it up from the turn 8 crash (so I'll be testing it to make sure it's not doing anything funky) and will also be the first time back at the big track.....will be interesting going through 8 the first few times.

Wish I could, but I have to work on wednesdays now. If something changes, and a bunch of $$ fall into my lap, I'll let you know.

Yea figure I'll use that to test the bike and see if it's freaking out....and start getting over my uneasiness of going through 8 again.

Tell you what, I'll let you follow me around for a bit so we can peak that uneasiness again after you get comfortable :lmao .

What did you have to fix on it to get it up to par?

Umm...still getting parts.

Full akro exhaust
MC
Brake lever
Brake lines
All Bodywork
clutch cover
throttle tube
fairing stay (on back order....so I may not have that before the 8th....which will prevent me from going)
frame slider
Windshield

The forks don't look bent...so I'm going to try them out....we'll see. That's why I want to test it out.
