Looks good Dave.

I had chicken strips for lunch...but when I got home, they were on my tires...

getting to the edge of the 190 might not happen

Get it to the track. I am like that on the street as well. Maybe because I don't ever really try and push it. But after one session at the track I was over on both sides and I am not comfortable on my left by any means.

Yeah Dave try track riding it is a lot of fun.

If your using all your tire on the street you are doing something wrong...

Remember, the farther you go down on the tire doesn't always mean your going "faster". It just means you are making the bike work really hard. On the track, I'll still have chicken strips on the front tire after a weekend of racing.

Nice vid btw!

Yeah, but we all know that you're not that fast, Casey...

love how you slow in the straights and accelerate through the corners. that's the way it should be done! nice video dave!

I plan on bringing the "Express" to the chicane day in June...I was riding at ~40% tops...although my right handers were a bit labored with a sprained ankle bothering me

I dunno man...the track intimidates me

its a big heavy bike...with the 180 on the rear, and me monkey-ing off the side, I'd be to the edge of the rear with a bit of strip left on the front, with the 190 in the rear, with similar pace/riding style, I've still got a bit left on the rear, and ~3/8" left on the front. but I run out of hard part clearance before tire with the center stand, pegs, etc. I'm not really worried about my "chicken strips", just being a smart a$$

its how I ride on the street...going fast in a straight line on a bike is pointless to me...
but also, without braking into the turn, I don't get as much front end compression, so the steering was a bit lazy for my liking

and...

the star of the video... the "Express"

thanks man...hopefully I can get some more footage this season...maybe with other riders and decent weather...at a more "spirited" pace


I need to put some music over it to cover up when I talk to myself
