    My New TrackBike!.......Need Help!

    I just got this new trackbike from a member of the former (Team 14K the Movie)...Suzuki....It's all set up but I don't want the quick Change axle in the front.......I need a stock axle/bushing setup if anyone has one for sale.??...It would be greatly appreciated.

    Check E-bay or even a salvage yard for one. I would guess they wouldn't go for over $100.

    I forgot to ask you why you don't a quick change axle? You would think it would be easier to take off the front wheel, and if you are running race tires you will be doing that a lot.

    The front left bushing was machined down for the marchesini wheels...I have the stock wheels on and need the regular bushing. I don't mind the extra 30 seconds to pull the axle,so~ i would rather have the stock axle in. Plus...It looks kinda funky with the roller wheel on the axle end.

    Oh....and, congrats on the lap times you posted last weekend..."practiceMan"

    I know who i'm following(or trying atleast) around that place the next time you're there.

    I have no problem showing you the lines I take, but I will give you a little advice that I had to learned the hard way. Don't try and follow someone who is a lot faster then you are (I high sided last year after trying to follow someone who was a lot faster then I was. I lasted 10 laps before I went flying). I'm not saying I'm a lot faster then you are, but I'm sure I'm faster then you are, and I should be because I have had more time on the track then you have. If I'm not faster then you and you do 1:18's only after being at the track once before you might be riding a factory AMA bike by the end of the year.

    PS- I don't see any frame siders on the bike? If it doesn't have them I would buy them if I was you. Also two things that will help you go fast:
    1. Good tires
    2. Good suspension set up
