Our sleep set up for next weekend’s Father’s Day track day.
I’m surprised that we actually fit comfortably in the short bed thanks to the tent utilizing the tailgate area.
Ali will be sleeping in the cab, with her new air mattress designed for the truck. We’ll have to wait and see if she makes it the entire night in there all by herself.
Thank you for bringing so much happiness to so many fans.
Loving the race skins, had them all off in under five minutes. Putting the fat boy springs in the forks and then I’m finally ready for the track.
Loving these new levers from FP Racing.
Here’s the front of my FP Racing Sport levers in Suzuki blue, matches the paint perfectly. Customized just for me.
Damn, is it time to track yet?
Thanks again Mike!
Loving these new Kabuto Helmets.
Incredible fit and finish, one for street, and one for track.
Bring it on summer!
Say hello to my new riding buddy!
Old Yeller is officially retired… Hello Juicy Gixxer!
Temps were HOT, but on the track everything was cool. I had a little hiccup after the first session as I noticed my back tire was going flat. Took the bike over to Jason at Dunlop Race Tire Services but unfortunately he didn’t have a tire to fit my aging 18 year old bike.
While I was contemplating my options of calling it a day, or making the drive to Bakersfield to pick up a new tire and try to salvage the rest of the day, Jason came through and somehow found a replacement tire for Ol’ Yeller. It was even the same make and model tire that had gone flat.
Thankfully, the rest of the day went smoothly and without any more drama and it was fun enjoying the track with good friends and family. Thank you Jason, you really saved the day!
Dave Moss had Ol’ Yeller dialed in and after a few sessions had me glued to the track. If you haven’t use his service at the track, I highly suggest spending the $40 for a full day of adjustments. Dave has incredible knowledge and won’t make you feel like an idiot when you ask him stupid questions.
I’m thinking I may have to retire Ol’ Yeller from future track days as I think maybe it’s time to bring out a more modern bike even though the Repsol is over 11 years old.
Let’s Ride Trackdays runs a great event and I’m looking forward to our next track day together.
Picked up these from Moto Mummy. They had an incredible sale on the Battlax Hypersport S21 tires.
I’ve been running the BT-S20 on Ol’ Yeller for a while now, and love how they perform on both the street and track. So I figured the updated triple compound rear might be just what I’m looking for when it comes to good street performance for the Repsol.
Well, the wait is over, Moto Mummy had these delivered to my door in just a few days.
Looks like it’s time to give the Repsol some much needed TLC and get it ready to thoroughly enjoy the new riding season.
