Default 2x CBR from Nor Cal

My name is Mark, I'm 43 and I reside in Rocklin, CA. I have two CBR's now so I figured I better join this forum.

I bought my '97 CBR900RR in 7/98 and have held on to it. When I bought a new R1, I decided to turn the 900 into a streetfighter.


Then this year, I retired my R6 and bought an '07 CBR600RR. This is the corkscrew at Laguna Seca.

I've been doing trackdays for over 10 years now.

I also like to ride dirt, mostly mountain single track and some high desert stuff. I have a KTM 200EXC two stroke for the dirt.

Thank you, glad to be here.

letsride, where are you located? Have you been on Wentworth Springs road? It's awesome! It's smoother than most racetracks! We'll have to wait until spring though.
