    @motojobobo this comes into play when cornering, be it street or track.

    same as when we do a u-turn on the street, we try to keep our body upright while the bike leans over and turn, on the track, at high speeds, it's the opposite where we try to keep the weight of everything closer to the ground.

                @Denimhead-0 I had found,over the years,that when riding on really hot days, a long sleeve t-shirt,that would keep the heat off my arms,would keep me cooler. The guys that test ride Harleys in the desert,actually wear wool to insulate them from the heat.

                      @goosehd I haven’t posted a picture,of this bike,in years,but with so many new people frequenting this thread I thought I’d post it. Wish I still had it.

                          @Denimhead-0 The fishtails have a tendency to drag when you lean,and that’s also what most people were doing with this bike. I love a 2-1 exhaust system as it gives you the most power upgrade in the mid range where we tend to do most of our riding.
