First Track Day

[ToddACimer]

I spent Wednesday at Blackhawk Farms for my first trackday on the S1000RR. What a blast. I'd never been on a race track before so I started in Novice group and focused on throttle control and riding techniques. I caught on pretty quick and later in the day began lapping the entire Novice group. I got bumped up to intermediate and was very comfortable at the front of the intermediate group. The bike worked awesome. Late in the day I noticed a bit of front brake fade but with almost 4000 miles on the bike my pads are worn more than 50% so I'm going to try replacing them.

Here's a few pics

Second track day.

Great shot, but I need to tuck my head down a bit more and get my upper body off the bike. Work for next time


Same thing but right turn... I need to scoot my butt over. I'm feeling at lot more comfortable with the lean angle and my toe/knee sliders are taking a beating because I dont move my butt
