Just signed up today for my first Track Day of the season on 5/24/11 at NHIS. Will be riding my Speed Triple and a GSXR-750 on both the Intermediate and Advanced Class.

When I saw the Speed Triple, I figured you were breaking in some new tires for the track!

Is that an all-day thing over there?

Too late to read this beforehand, so I'll put it in the past tense - hope you had a great ride, the weather held and you had a great day! I bet you had a great time on the GSXR but that you won't give up the triple.

I only rode the Speed Triple at the Track yesterday, the first session it very slippery and wet, almost fell twice, the second session the sun came out and re gain confidence, the third and fourth session I was lapping other bikes. Awesome Track Day and I got the tires all chewed up! Ran 30psi front and 28psi rear.

I do need a lighter track only bike the Speed Triple is too heavy. It takes a lot of finesse too while accelerating out of corners and spinning the rear tire. Oh Yeah! It's all good!
