How to Race Your Street Motorcycle

Now you own one of the fastest things on two wheels, where are you going to open that baby up? Street racing is highly illegal, you face losing your license, hundreds of dollars in fines and consequently giving other riders a bad name.

Be safe and check with your local dealership for open track days. Make sure your bike is in tip top condition.

Waiting.

The city decided to repave the road in and around my housing area. This has obviously forced me to be stay put as far as two wheels go for sometime now.

And on the weekend of the fourth of July.

Aftermarket parts, it's not a sin.

Summer Daze

So, I made it to the shop and got the new rear tire. Hopefully I'll be able to get it tomorrow or Friday, weather permitting of course. I try avoid the rain at all costs. It's not the greater risk factor influencing my decision, it's the hours of cleaning involved, after!

I decided to Stick with the Dunlop Sportmax for the new rear tire.
Man, I'm itching for summer.

Sticks and stones...


...I can handle, but getting a nail in my rear tire!? No way!





Unbelievably the weather is holding me back from getting the bike in the shop and I have to keep checking the tire to keep it inflated. If it comes off the rim I'm screwed.

Mt St Helens Ride 2009

(1st Attempt this year) I may have just gotten a little too excited and gone a little early.

Along with my wife on the back, we took off despite the inclimate weather. Sad to say, we had to turn around one mile from the final turnoff due to ice hitting my visor.

I wish I had taken the time to snap some shots but I was already freezing cold, and had to consider others safety.

I guess I'll give it another month.

Read what others had to say about the R6.

"Accompanied by an insane howl from the wildest production 600cc engine to ever get its neck wrung by this humble scribbler
..."

"All-new, light, powerful and bristling with knowledge gained from years of racing, the YZF-R6 is the most advanced production motorcycle Yamaha—or anybody else—has ever built."
