Re: Eleven Motorsports

I bought a 190 from these guys. They did a demo at a kart track down here in Houston and I made the mistake of going. Kart track memberships are cheap and these machines are no joke.

Re: MSRC July 21/22 1.7CCW/1.7CW

I rode off the track at lean because I turned in too early at Tombstone. The bike stopped pretty quick and I went up against it and over the top. Image

Re: MSRC June 24th(1.3), 25th(1.7)

Good to see your priorities are in order. Sometimes the only option is to move or get a new vehicle to secure room for storage and transport of motorcycles. I just got a new place with a 3rd car(motorcycle) bay and a Kendon trailer.

Re: MSRC July 21/22 1.7CCW/1.7CW

I have crashed running CW. Even with that I think I like it better. You don’t have the hard braking like you do CCW and it seems to flow better. I plan on doing the CW to get some extra practice. CMRA is racing CW the following weekend and then racing CCW in August. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Re: Sport Rider Coaching

I did a coaching day there with Ben Gooding. The surface was not as bad as I was expecting, but when you start building speed it is not smooth. It has a covered paddock area with power. If I was not moving I would join ECR for sure. They are relatively cheap and don’t have session fees. Sent from my...

I might have everything fixed by Sunday. Looks like it is going to be a sold out event.

CMRA Round 3 MSRC (CW)

Sunday looks like a good day for the races. I think it is 5 bucks to get in if you ride a motorcycle. I will be in 2 races after lunch (prov nov and modern classic). #803

I did the class with my Street Triple. Older crowd. Very laid back, 30 min sessions, and you are on your own for lunch. Looks a bit cool Monday.

Recalls

Never mind, a quick search and the brembo site had the answer. Aftermarket kits were not affected.

Re: Recalls

I put an RCS19 on my gsxr, I bet this falls under this recall too. That is what is stock on most of those bikes.

Re: 2018crf450r update:

Sounds like a learning experience. We have all been there. I once tangled my cars wiring harness around a drill bit while drilling a hole through the fire wall. So many little wires shredded.

Re: CMRA

47 is not too old. There are 250s for really cheap, ninja 300s are a bit more scarce, and I have not seen a reasonable r3. rc390s are all pricey. I have also seen a few cbr500s ready to race for 2900.

Yeah, I think him and Calvin are interested. I am looking for a CMRA prepped bike. I will probably spend all next season just trying to figure everything out.

CMRA

Are there any takers on splitting a race bike and doing some endurance races? I was thinking ultra lightweight or lightweight. I am not looking to be a fast team, just get more time on a track. I plan on getting my license during this next year on my gsxr or a yet to be acquired track bike. There se...
