Default Admitted I'm powerless over track...

Hi guys, I turned my 2005 F4i into a track bike this year. It seems like I'll be needing some good advice on various mechanical issues, andthis must be the place!

ummk, got the pics ready. I've been riding 8 years, started trackdays last year. This is our first trackday at Thunderhill, practically stock. The suspension was a little scary on T'hills vertical features

No my turn signal isnt on. I inactivated the lights by pulling fuses, but the left running lights are in circuit with the speedo so I left that one in.

After a winter spent exploded all over my garage, the old girl emerged with a new dress and makeup. Here she's getting ready to stretch her legs at Buttonwillow.






Speed is in her DNA, the F4i is a great 600 trackbike. She found her way round Sears Point in no time.
