just nice to see pics of monsters on the track on the monster forum.   Grin    practicality will eventually take over with something that would likely crash better, but I think it will allways be fun doing things on the streetbike there that I can't do on the street.     Hell, wrestling around a big tourer on the track would be a hoot.

Not sure I'd like trying to flick 500-800 pounds through some esses.   laughingdp

Once again, proof that it is usually more the rider than the bike. 

Chris, I am probably going to be selling my Daytona before too long.

Nice trail braking!! I think he had those brakes on a little deep in some of those corners though. Does a Goldwing have ABS?

the bike in the foreground here ridden by 1 buddy of mine and belonging to another buddy of mine is an ABSOLUTE BEAST!!!  a very rare and freakishly cool bike...a Superhawk 996 (dubbed the Super Chicken) heavily modified by Moriwaki Racing with lots of frame strengenthing welds and titanium hardware and Dymag carbon fiber wheels and all kinds of stuff done to it.

BTW...FWIW.... on a Monster track bike IMHO, I think less is more...my old 900 Monster with the CC rearsets and sorted out suspension gives me the allowances to be able to use more of the motor and get more and more out of the bike helping me learn more and work a lil harder....all depends on you though...

Dudes, Monsters rock on the track. You've just got to set them up right.  waytogo So yes, it can be the right tool for the job. My job is to win races and my Monster has taken me to several class championships. It may be going bigger next season to beat up on SVs...anyone got a 900 motor to get rid of? Evil

I can tell by the fence in the backround that you are in 5 there....good body position!

the Milona I am betting was Courtney's....he picked it up recently and it is a SUUUHHWEEET machine!

Thanks, Spidey.

I have to figure out something for the right side, as my boot is melted pretty bad....too bad VIR is so right-sided.


I don't know if you remember my comments after I rode your RS, but the big one was that you don't have any room for your heal on the right side when you try to turn your foot out.

The pipes are in the way.

So. . . underbike exhaust or do what I said you should do back then.
