Alright, lets see your race bikes (F2's Only)

I want to see pictures, track pictures if you have them, a list of your racing goodies, stories of you kicking the pants off of riders on newer badder bikes, etc etc.

This winter my bike is being transformed into a race bike for next season, here's my list of goodies:
[ul][*]Hindle slip-on exhaust[*]DynoJet jetted[*]+2 Rear sprocket[*]98' F3 Rear shock[*]RaceTech springs, 15w fork oil[*]Pazzo Shorty levers[*]Brembo Stainless brake lines (junction eliminating)[*]EBC Kevlar clutch discs/heavy duty springs[*]Vortex Rearsets[*]APE CCT[*]ProGrip hand grips[/ul]
Here is my bike before the upgrades, the only new part on in this picture is the +2 sprocket. I'll get updated pictures soon.




When I get my race bodywork I'm going to paint it to look like this, and all of my goodies are red in color:

 

Just been tracking but considering racing.

91 F2 w/ 3100miles, running this for the first time after more then 8 years.

Mods:
Two Brothers Slip on
K&N Filter
Vortex Rear Sets
Stomps

Project list:
Have a 94 exhaust bracket so I can remove the 91 stock passenger peg brackets.
DynoJet Stage 3 or 7
Steering Dampener
Suspension upgrades
Sprocket upgrades
Would like to get rid of the CA emission crude but it is a job. Probably just inspect it.
...then the race prep should I decide to go down that road

You should add braking upgrades to your list, what a difference...


edit: It looks like you do have braided lines in the front?

 

Oh ya, I forgot. I have Goodrich stainless lines front and rear.

When you say brake upgrade, you talking about more then just EBC pads. Probably Calibers and rotors too?

 

Calipers and rotors are limited for the F2 (I've found anyway)

I was just talking about brake lines and pads, and fresh fluid if you havent done that, new fluid alone makes a huge difference.

 

I rebuilt the calibers back in April and fresh fluild. I'm currently doing a F2 Front Mod on the 88 Hawk NT650 and put EBC pads on those calibers. Working on it today in fact. I looked over at the CBR, gee I should put EBCs on it.

What differnece did the RaceTech springs, 15w fork oil make with the front suspension?

 

Racetech's and 15w make it very stiff, the 10w is mush for bigger riders even for the street and me being 6'2 neededit(you're a lady I think? You may be able to live without it)

But with the new springs and 15w it's much too stiff for street riding, but great on the track.

TheNT650 is one of my all time favorites, you have great taste. I've always wanted one, in fact, I've always wanted this one:

Yes, I'm a lady and only 5'4". Won't state weight .

A suspension tuning guy is generally at the track days I frequent. Charges $75 to tune the suspension to your build. I was thinking of possible giving that a try.

Thanks, the Hawk is a fun little bike. It is being prepped for track as well. Pic is the Hawk on my Xmas present this year.
Interesting color on that Hawk. Hmm, I need to do an exhaust mod too I see.
