I really don't have a huge budget, as I'm in college and always had issues maintaining a steady job and getting good grades. It's really hard for me to get out on track frequently. In all honesty my only track time this year will be the WERA races at NOLA and the GNF. If I'm lucky I'll get to do the CMRA round of NOLA over the summer. That's why I was asking what can I do to have my bike in its best condition so I can focus on my riding the few chances I get.
I bought my current set of used TZ250 bodywork for about $220.00. The reason that I like bodywork as a solution is that once installed, it doesn't wear out, yet it can provide a distinct performance advantage. Unless of course you crash. But the risk for that is virtually the same no matter what bodywork you choose.
