Oh man, that looks like a perfect track for my SV. The track map I posted is of Thunderhill Raceway. I think next year I'm going to do Sears Point/Infineon, only. It's 20 minutes from my house and suits the SV well. Thunderhill is way to fast of a track for me now.

Sears Point eats motorcycles for breakfast. Sure you might get off without a spiral tib /fib break but your bike will hate you.

i know its across the water but a trip to the isle of mann is something that should be on any motorcyclists bucket list.

Ive been to many gp and superbike races in the uk and europe but they dont compare to the lads doing 180mph+ around a road circut

Eh, only if you ride a Ducati.

Isle of Man would be sweet. They've been showing it on HTV the last couple months.

Low air box height, drive chain on the wrong side. Nope. If it helps I did see a 510 get drown last week though. Luckly the guy right behind him on the DR 650 was able to go upstrean around him.

Really? Sounds like it would suck for off roading.... Nothing worse than forging a creek and sucking in water halfway across. Only ever happened to me once, along time ago.

My anchor back then was a KD-80
