Daium this makes me want to ride so bad! But its about freezing here T_T Look so good! Jealous of the weather :) FYI should have gotten into second when braking for turn 7. :)
@@JacobJorgs Have you successfully completed ANY formal rider training? What proper safety gear have you purchased? PLEASE listen to the instructors, stay in the slow group, hold your line, follow all instructions, and don't hurt any other track day participants.
Sir, I appreciate you looking out for me. I have all of the proper gear that is needed for the track and more. I will obviously be in the novice group as it is my first track day. With that being said I am fully capable of holding my own and knowing my limits.
My choice of a 20 year old bike was what I could afford sir. It is not a rebuilt bike. It is old but still runs. I do not mind the criticism but you have to understand situations my brother. Not all fortunate. I'm just a dude enjoying his life lol
That was the most cringe video I've seen in a while. You need to get yourself some proper safety gear and get some formal rider training, so that you can actually learn how to ride. The "excitement" that you're experiencing, is just you scaring yourself by operating beyond your skill set. And because you have no riding skills, that happens at an incredibly low threshold. If you actually do a track day, I'm hoping that you don't hurt any other track day participants. Please- get some proper safety gear, and get some formal rider training.
I understand your comment, the excitement is that I am on my motorcycle after a long cold winter. Doing small turns like that is not what got my excited. It was more of just having the ability to ride my "Crasher" again. With that being said I appreciate you looking out for safety of others and myself. I have a full 1 piece leather suit boots ect.
@JacobJorgs So you have zero formal rider training. PLEASE download Keith Code's "Twist Of The Wrist 2" and spend every waking moment between now and Friday reading it. I have a background as an expert-licensed motorcycle road racer and motorcycle road racing instructor. I have turned expert-level lap times during track days with my young bikini model wife on the back. I have ridden the Snaefel Mountain Course on the Isle of Man during the TT at triple-digit speeds on a big-bore Ducati, both solo and two-up. I have been over 200 mph on my open-class superbike. One of the most stressful experiences I've ever had in my life, was sending her out for her sessions on track during track days before her novice road racing school, knowing that squids like you were going to be on track at the same time.
@JacobJorgs You don't "got" anything. Take advantage of the classroom sessions at your track day. Buy an instructor lunch- realize that we are out there for free, buying our own tires, for our own motorcycle, burning our own gas, to help people like you.
Never said you weren’t . The normal motorcycle safety class does not really teach you anything. Which is why i am going to the track to learn some more skills. I would rather do it on a track then on the street you know
2005 and older arent desirable like the 06 and up had a 05 and it was ok but fuel injection system was stupidly designed and coils always went bad the voltage regulator had to be relocated under the battery tray instead of on the front because it would get to hot and melt had one melt on me at about 140 and CEL came on and bike barely made it home.
When i said 180 i was kind of just talking about 600s in general. My old bike does not go 180 but most people are not going to get an 03 r6 now a days. But you are 100% correct
I had an older R6 but I upgraded to a 1098S Ducati Tricolore. The R6 was okay. I think GSX’s are better made. R series have oil pressure issues when you pull wheelies. They never seemed to fix that problem. A buddy of mine has an R with same oil pressure issues. Anyway, Be safe out there brother…. That’s a nice bike you got there… enjoy it responsibly. Stay alive bro ❤
I think within the next year or so i am going to give Honda or gxsr a chance on a 1000. I love my r6 but i am going to transform it into a track bike within the next year or so . It’s getting too old to keep taking trips on reliably
This was a short clip from my latest video. If you want to see the full thing see it here ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-uarl0t4uFtQ.html
What year R6 is yours and how many miles did it have when you bought it? And last question what do you reckon is a good amount of mileage on an R6 to buy one second hand?
It was a 2003 R6. Had basically 50k miles on it. I’ve put over 3k on it so far and have had 0 issues . It’s not really based on the miles it’s more of how well it was taken care of
@JacobJorgs I got it July 5th. It was either the 2023 GSXR600 or 2023 Kawasaki Ninja ZX-6R. I remembered my buddy told me to get the bike that I want so I got the ZX-6R.
Really good video well said. Turned down an R6 a month ago got my RR 600 instead dream bike for me. Everything said regarding new riders on a 600cc is spot on. Just take your time there's no rush enjoy it. I got left for dead last Sunday on a small group ride and that's fine just ride your ride and get home safe.
