NEW MOTORCYCLE DAY!

IS HERE!!!!!

Here we go, trackday season. I'll be painting it, and getting new tires... but that's really about it. Maybe a quickie screw-on gas cap. Oh, and stomp grip. The thing's a beast. ECU's been re-flashed, 520 chain geared -1/+2, back end raised just a little, GPR damper, really nice rear-sets, only 2900 miles.

Looks great, and good luck on the track, but are you going to replace the seat? Maybe I don't have the eyes for it, but it looks kind of thin

It's an '05 600. I think I'll be leaving the exhaust alone.... I'm certainly not fast enough to be exploring those kinds of lean angles. Yet.

On the track, you're never really on the seat, if you're doing it right. See below.








Even if you do it wrong, you're still not on the seat....

Very, VERY nice!! You're causing me to commit the sin of coveting...

Post track pics when you get them.
