@rcouch358 Hit the track on the 250. It's a great learning tool.
The R6 is a beast, and going around the track on a slower bike before hand will give you a great appreciation for the supersport. Plus, you have a track-capable bike now. The track is just too damn fun to wait for. |

Through my friend's camera. Wheeeeeee
Horrible line and a terrible body position but I'll take my first knee drag. I'm not sure if I'm actually touching in this pic but i did it 3 times in a row in that corner. Now that's out of the way, I can actually focus on riding fast bwahahah.. jk jk |

Thanks guys.
Chris, yeah I'm way more comfortable but also definitely learning new things everytime I go out there. What I'm happy with most is after each sessions I can sit down and think and come up with what I'm doing wrong. One thing I gotta do for sure is lose some weight man.. I'm so friggin lazy on the bike. I don't get my body down. And that's mainly what's wrong with my body position in the photo. That bike should be a tad more straight up and I should be leaning my body a whole lot more. I'm definitely better first few sessions then I quickly get tired and stand my upper body up a bit.. Along with following better lines (comes first), if I can solve my bp, lazy steering (not leaning in quick enough aka flicking the bike) and gear problem (not being in the right gear for the right corner. r6 feels like a goddamn honda civic if i'm one gear up than i need be), I'll improve a ton. Then it'll all be about late break and early/hard throttle off corners to get a few more seconds down. Anyway. I sound more upset than I really am. I just know I can get way faster. Don't we all |

Get a bicycle. Or a pair of running shoes. Start slow and work your way up to 30+ minutes of vigorous excercise 4-5 times a week. It won't be an insane workout schedule, but the cardio will keep you in shape and you won't get tired as quickly.

Boredom + Free time = Painting the bike. It's a ****** rattle can job but who cares! If I ever get new set of fairings some day I'm getting those painted by a pro in the same color scheme though.
Next will be either orange rim tape OR getting rims powder coated orange. OR a combo of both. Black rear rim with orange rim tape and an orange front rim. I kinda like that uneven look. Dunno.. edit : oh yeah i couldn't resist photoshopping out the frame slider holes. I should repair those. Too lazy at the moment hehe. |
