Penske

[McBiggity]

my one mod (Penske) was more than I paid for the bike.
that was tough to rationalize

[Pittenger5]

Haha yah, Ive been looking for one on ebay, especially Ive been dragging hard parts in more than just 9. Spending all this money has been pretty tough to rationalize, but fuck it. This summer has been the most fun Ive ever had on 2 wheels.

[RyanNicholson]

you light weight guys are an interesting crowd

[OreoGaborio]

dragging parts in 9? bah... get off the bike. Clayton's doing 24's on a stock shock and I don't think he's dragging in 9... think he's even got stock footpegs.

[Honclfibr]

Last weekend clayton came in complaining about dragging his *fork leg* in 9. Yeah, I think he's dragging a bit through there.

[OreoGaborio]

was that 9 or 1?

Dragging exhaust was cool till i raised the ride height closer to where it should be.

[Pittenger5]

Well I got stock shock and stock footpegs. I tend to drag exhaust in 9, and last weekend at various times I dragged exhaust in 2, 3, 6 and 9. I bet its mostly body position though, especially in 3 and 9, mainly cause my right side body position is utter garbage.

hahah its good to hear that from someone else. My body positioning has progressing nicely on left hand corners, but right handers i feel extremely weird (similiar to the first time trying to hang off the bike).

[RyanNicholson]

i think its funny how 90% of riders have a harder time turning right.... i've never really had any issues with it, but most of the people i ride on the street with do. i favor turning left though.

"and all he had to do was turn left.....i'm not an ambiturner"

[TheIglu]

I do have stock footpegs and exhaust.

And yes, I did indeed drag something VERY badly in 9 two weekends ago putting down mostly 25's and a 24. I dragged it BAD. Just can't see to figure out what it was, but I know my front end was gone momentarily.

It sure did work to slow the bike a little after getting into 9 too hot....you can just call me Jeff Wood.

[Pittenger5]

The funniest thing is, my most favorite 3 turns on the street are all rights, but on the track my right side form is just bad. My lefts feel fine, still probably not good, but my rights just feel awkward and just arent right.
Its not so much dragging the exhaust canister, but the suspension bottoming out and dragging the exhaust pipe under the bike. I know its that cause of all the scraping under there. I should check if I can raise the bike up a bit.

Wow that's funny, I'm the same way.

You can even look at my back tire and see it.

What's with that?
