nice going bryce....i bet with those leathers on you'll be in the 12's at 2nd creek..... :D

spidey those are real sharp looking suits. i've always looked down on agv's but those are incredible looking. and you'll prolly get killer deals on them from their pricing history.... :guns:

It's even got a full race-hump on the back! Apparently, the MSRP on it is $699.
Motorcycle-Superstore.com has it for $630.
Kneedraggers.com has it for $560.
AccWhse.com has it for $508.
MotorcycleMart.com (www.MotorcycleMart.com) has it for $467.

Guess where I ordered it from? :D I guess it pays to shop around!
Actually, I've ordered from MotorcycleMart before - I bought almost all my new gear from them last year (I would have bought my helmet from them too, but it was backorder and I didn't want to wait). I found them last year when I was shopping for gear. If their website doesn't list it, call them - they can usually get it & they'll beat anyone's price on most stuff.

nice leathers! It's about time you ditched that fieldsheer suit. 10's hunh? That is 70 seconds for 1.7 miles or an avg speed of almost 90 m.p.h. That's pretty ambitious! You can do it!

last year i did high 1:09'sclockwise and mid 1:10's counter clockwise on my 600.I only use DOT tires.Lap times are not really all that important. most people will tell you what their fastest lap time is,but they usually cant do that lap time consistantly!I only record my race lap times,practice is only practice you dont need to ride 100%! Besides you only need to go fast enough to win right?? Mike Hard Core Racing #25

I fully agree Mike but watching where I consistantly lap helps me see how I am progressing in my riding and if changes I make to lines/bike setup improve or hurt my laptimes

What do you racer guys think of working to put in consistent lap times? Is it worth the effort to work on being able to run the same speed for race distance and then work on improving times?
