    Cylinder Misfiring

    Add another vote for moisture. Maybe a small amount of dry gas to see what happens. If the bike sat for any amount of time without a full tank, and if the right conditions permit, condensation could very well have formed and collected somewhere in the system.

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    That figure of $1000 was my my estimated cost alone and there's a little more to it....like how I didn't use my truck for 4 days once we were there. Didn't need to, afterall, we had everything we needed and the 8 of us just packed into RV if we were going offsite somewhere. $600 for 2 days at...

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    Come to NH and you can stay at my place for free. I'm $1.25 in tolls and 45 minutes south of NHMS. FWIW, my first TD was at VIR. I drove from 14 hrs from NH to Alton, VA possessing only aggressive street riding skills at that point in time. You want to talk about cost? It was a total of...

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    Track days are a riot! What seems like alot of money up front really isn't considering what you, the rider, takes home. The skills you can learn one cannot put value on, IMO. Furthermore, every single person I talk to after they have completed their first TD always says "Damn! I shoulda done...

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    Grattan (MI), Pocono (PA), Thunderbolt (NJ), NHMS (NH), Calabogie (Canada), Mid-Ohio... I'm sure there are more. Those are ones off the top of my head.

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    Possibly. They very well may give you a new respect for what safe street riding is all about......aaaaaaaand you might actually learn something about riding other than speeding tickets and pucker moments with on coming vehicles. Hard sayin' not knowin'. Only one way to find out, right?

    Who was draggin' a bag on the Dragon?

    I'm gonna let you all in on a little secret.....please keep it just between us, okay? There are these things called "race tracks"......sometimes you can ride a motorcycle on them.......free from endangering others and I hear there's plenty of open tarmac to get your jollies out on.

    Loudon Road Racing Series at NHMS

    "Will I be there" is a loaded question. I had a minor "disagreement" with turn 1 and have some work to do on my bike. I'm not sure if I'll be racing, but I'll certainly be in the Zip-Tie Alley garage, at the very least. There's usually plenty of camping space. Just pick a spot for your tent...

    Loudon Road Racing Series at NHMS

    You might be confusing said "races" with the Loudon Classic (which runs around the time of Laconia Bike Week). This is a CCS event that's held on a number of weekends during the summer months. Last LRRS race weekend of this year is Sept 27th and 28th. Keep it in mind.

    Loudon Road Racing Series at NHMS

    bump If anyone's planning on heading up Sunday, let me know before Friday so I can get you $10-off coupons or, at the very least, a way to contact me so I can get you the coupons at the gate. It's looking like the weather's going to be perfect this weekend! :yahoo:

    Litre Bikes

    I don't get these tests. 180? I mean, anyone can hammer it in a straight line until top speed is reached. What is the purpose supposed to prove? Gimme my leathers and set me free on the race track.....those are the numbers that matter, IMO.

    Sub-secret ride to Maine

    CJ, I'm comitted to the times posted. There is a small group of riders meeting me at the mall and I'd rather not go changing times on them just in case some people don't get the information. I can tolerate a medium pace with your wi......uhhh....I can't say it....LOL Honestly, the pace in...
