Good news is that I got the seat pad yesterday, I will try to mount her up this evening and hopefully get her to the track this week. We shall see. I also got some Klucky Pucks for knee dragging, should be fun.
In honor of Mitch's work, here is how she sits, the last picture is where I "finished" her. Haven't decided if I will paint it or not. Jury is still out.
Good stuff. Did you even wear out those street tires? Whatcha gonna do with them?
A few laps at Cresson should wear them out pretty quick. You get to practice your sliding skills when they get greasy.
Nice.Woo Hoo! Mr. UPS brought me some Med/Med Slicks
Nice.
What's a pair of Dunlop slicks run these days? $400 or so?
Awesome bike and I love the Rossi-esque "OldTLSDoug" sticker on the windshield! 808... BOB... Get it? Ahhhh... I crack myself up sometimes.

Just say "No" Mitch. Between the bike, the leathers, the track fee, and $400 in tires every 4 track days until you get fast and then every other track day after, it burns retirement money fast.What kind of track bike should I get?

Mitch says I'm a crack dealer. He may be right....Ha! @2WheelNut got me sucked into it... he must like you more.
We've found that the GSXR750 is a pretty capable platform for us men "of a certain age". Good combination of performance on the tight & twisty tracks and the long and flowing tracks.
Hmm. You'd be better off putting super moto wheels on that KTM 500. That could he lots of fun.I've been reading stuff on the internet
How about this one?
