Track Day tomorrow! 1st one in 14 years!
So excited. Fixen to take the SuperHawk to The Motorsports Ranch in Cresson Tx tomorrow. Haven't been on the track myself since the '98 racing season, on my RZ350. Bringing an old friend and his BMW R1100S. Should be a blast. He is taking the Rider's Course they are putting on, so hopefully he will do well. Wish me luck and no boneheaded moves! Keeping the rubber side down!

Had a blast. Took my time to get up to speed, but wore off all my rear tire's chicken strips. 
After a couple hours though, I was beat, quads were barking, and my wrists were swelling and becoming painful. (I had forgotten to take ibuprofen before riding out) Really impressed with the SuperHawk. Was very stable and trustworthy, even stock. I don't have a steering dampener on it, and it would wiggle the bars a bit, over bumps while hard on the throttle out of a corner, but nothing bad. Now I'm trying to keep my eyes open. Have to go unload the motorhome, lol.
