haha. Will do :) You goin to TMP on Thurs?!?! I got so much electric ish wired into my bike it's retarded. I'm just hoping it doesn't burst into flames, etc. Whenever I go to a meet everyone seeks me out so they can fast charge their iPhones and iPads (who the F carries their ipad with them? seriously). Good thing my Shorai still starts my bike after a few hours of fast charging 4 phones at the same time :(

Hahaha, now I know who to talk to to charge my phone and gps unit! ;) Don't worry, I also have a 12v socket coming directly from the battery. See you on Thursday! I actually pre-registered already.
 
new springs, 1.05's in the front and hopefully add some skill with FAST school this year
 
New tires.... Battleax S20s.... not near fast enough to require warmers or slicks as of yet...

Nice choice :) They warm up super fast, 1 easy lap of TMP in cold air temps and I'm ready to push em as hard as a noob can!

Please make sure you have at least 4 cameras covering different angles.

Found the piece I was looking for, bike is all ready to go with the exception of the water/water wetter.
Looks like my first track day is coming up quick, starting to get nervous and excited, should be an awesome year!

I got front and rear. Stupid china cam doesn't have the normal tripod thread. I'm going to have one under the tail facing at the rear shock, and one on the side of the bodywork looking out the front with the left shock visible.

Ever consider one of these TAFB?

A little bulky at the moment, but pretty darn cool...

Wow, that's amazing!! Never ever heard of anything like that camera before! I tried out the demo video, super freaky, it's nice being able to watch the action that interests you most! It ran pretty jerky for me but I'm encoding video in Primere CS6 right now and it's using 100% of my CPU so it's probably that :)

No price announced yet?

Nobody was keeping up with me on the ride today so other than the starts, there isn't really much showing in my rear cam video feed :( It'll probably look a lot better at the track.

Bled my brakes and swapped the coolant out for water wetter. Ready for Thursday!

Yes, I have one of the PB restraints, they are wonderful. You could fit two bikes but it would be tight, I will have it set up so the bike is tight to the right side and all my other stuff on the left.

I did that the last time I set up a trailer, will do it again this time.

Corsara said:
If you don't mind me asking, how much a used trailer like that run for (price range is good enough)?
Click to expand...

It can vary. I got this one for $1700, it's a 2011 and has seen very little use and is in excellent condition. I have seen some 5x8s go for as little as $1000 but they tend to be older and show their age, that also means that tires, bearings, electrical, rust and roof seals may be an issue. I was looking at another one on Kijiji that I likely could have got for $1200 but I decided to spend the extra money on this one and take care of it. I'll get that extra money back when I go to sell it.
