The title says it all. After my first track day I had so much fun I decided to turn my bike into a track only bike. I don't plan on racing just doing track days. I'll update this thread as things progress.
I'm about to do this..waiting for my bodywork...I'm still not sure if I wanna sell my stock stuff yet just in case...I might not be able to handle riding on the track only....We'll see though.
Yea I had that thought cross my mind. But after riding on the track the street just seems boring. And as odd as it may sound to some. Th track is just way way safer.

Exhaust has been installed along with the vortex exhaust hanger:toocool:
Please excuse the dirty bike. Since it is under construction I have not been keeping her squeeky clean as usual. Also excuse the background as I do not have my own garage for now.
And just an idea of the kind of quality and attention t detail you get with Akrapovic check out the springs!
I'm not sure. It won't be getting paint for a couple months since I'm moving next month and starting a new job. Luckily my new job will make it possible for me to get it painted sooner then I would with my old job.
The install went great. As far as fitment goes the upper leaves a bit to be desired but that's because the lower is absolutely perfect. So comparitavely the upper needed a bit of massaging to fit correctly. All in all though I am very happy with them.
So after my crash at Streets of Willow I decided to rattle can my race bike. All in all I think it came out ok. I left my upper fairing for last and it shows that learned how to handle the rattle can way better at the end. Now I'll add some decals from my favorite companies and call it done. Later on when after my wedding the bike will be getting a lot of track mods but for now this things limits are way above my skill level...for now. Oh and check out my cool michelin man key chain lol.
You know I've been around compettition my whole life and this is not something I'm interested in doing in a compettitive setting. When I'm riding I like running with my buddies dualing with them but real racin doesn't excite me. I've got other things I would like to do.
