Never been a fan of drag/stretched bikes. But if it's what our into, have at it! Nice times though!

i LOOOOVE straight line acceleration. dont get me wrong, i love carving corners also, but there is no way i would take this bike on a track and risk dropping it. i know myself, the adrenaline would kick in and i would go way over my skill level and screw up.
eventually i plan on getting a cheap 600 to take to track days and get my skills up without ******* up an expensive bike.

Track days are a great way to improve your skills. If you don't try and run at 100% you shouldn't worry about putting the bike down. You can learn a ton just running at 75 to 90%.

i understand, but i know myself, once the adrenaline kicks in i tend to do dumb stuff, so i know its better not to even try it with an expensive bike.

i know my limits
