Pretty Awesome to come back to this post years later and see a man's dream come true. I saw the "maybe one day a track bike..." then peaked over to the left and noticed you have your road bike and track bike listed in your bio. You did it brotha! haha

The biggest difference is that I own the bike... and it's not a track bike, which is a bit of a concern I must admit.
The plan is:
- Get the basic equipment together (suit, proper armor, trailer hitch for the car, supplies/parts to prep the bike).
- Pay off the bike before going to the track.
- Do the first few track days with the bike as it is.
- Get addicted, make the next investment... bodywork because factory fairings are EXPENSIVE
- Upgrade gear as money allows (suit and boots)
- Eventually/maybe: Get a track bike so I can stop worrying about my main squeeze. That's a tough one. Wife would NOT be happy about two bikes.
