[Kham]

lay it down. dont care if im not fast. just as fun. is this wrong way of looking at at? think i'll need new rear set though. im afraid to dig the peg in pavement.

this anyone here?

[seth399]

yes, that is Kham on this board.

[OreoGaborio]

Well ya better start doin a lotta track days then

[TheIglu]

Racetires + racebike + racer = lean angle

Plleassse next time I'm at Loudon I'll show you how it's done, on my Z. Don't worry about lifting the front wheel coming out of corners, it's all about corner speed, you'll get there some day.

[Kham]

dont look like a race tire.

[Paul_E_D]

but it is. Just stop with these threads and come ride with us at the track. Ten or 15 years of practice later and you might be able to do this:

what is it? but we were told tire traction is not the limit. skill is the limit.

[seth399]

[Awesome]

yeah, just get rearsets then you can do that no problem.

[BMFR6]

You're far too literal/static minded for this sport. Of course there are limits: traction, ground clearance. But on the very same bike, how much traction and clearance you have Vs. how much traction and clearance anther rider might have in the same corner are very different.

[Kham]

i know... it's a matter of $$. it just looks easy.

[Awesome]

More money you put into the bike the fast your lap times and the greater your lean angle, everyone knows that.

[Doc]

Don't feed the troll.

yup, I had a busa and did 1.11s or so...now I ride a crf and am in the 1.25s

oh fuck you dick! money on bike, instructional, track day, and practice time which is also money. now eveyrone knows that.

just answer this. is it true that you can lean that far in parking lot speed? i honestly dont know.

[Kham]

Don't feed the troll.

why am i the troll?

[Awesome]

Of course. No need for a racetrack, you can ride like that at the local Walmart.

[Paul_E_D]

[Kham]

thanks i'll go try that. walmart here i come.

[seth399]

Let me know which one you are going to!!
