    Yeah, I got spoiled on the EX250 where I could fill up in the morning and still have a 1/4 of a tank left at the end of the day. This refueling during the day thing is still new to me! (Although I did refuel at lunch time, I just mis-guessed how much I needed )

    On the bright side, I did get to watch most of a session from a great vantage point: the inside of the bowl!

    That was a VERY cool perspective to see the fast guys flying around you. I enjoyed it.

    Dude! Sweet! I can't wait to see it next week. We missed you in NJ, but it sounds like you had the trip of a lifetime!

    I have been looking for a small track bike to get started with. What does a bike like that cost to get racing?

    Hey John, it was well worth skipping a few track days for an incredible trip to Antarctica. Will definitely be seeing you next week. Heck, you'll probably end up pitting your wing next to my 125 again!

    If you are looking specifically at the Honda RS125, they can be had used and are typically ready to race for around 3-4k and up. The classified section of the USGPRU forum is a good place to look. http://www.usgpru.net/forum/

    If you are looking for a new 125, this is the last year they are being made so hurry up and grab one from Rising Sun! http://www.rscycles.com/

    If you are not sure what you want, it might be cheaper to get started on an EX500 or SV650, but you'd better ask others for more advice. Don't be fooled by the previous owner's race number on the bike, I don't race (Yet!)
