yeah, im gonna attend a track school when i get enough money.

but for now, i'll practice and practice.

i actually found that rose bowl stadium is great. the parking lot is huge and i just have to check if there's no events then i'll be able to practice there. i'll feel more confident inside the suit.

just have to be careful too since newbie cagers are practicing there as well.

Hmm. change the leathers to blue and the bike to team suzuki colors and you could look almost like Aaron yates.

Yates wears that same style of Teknic leathers, just in blue, with sponsor patches all over it. He rides a Gixxer 1k too

i seriously doubt aaron wears a violator.

i bet he wears a custom teknic suit or teknic's top of the line suit, the speedstar model.

also, i don't like to copy other's style.

i hope im the only one w/ the kind of bike/riding gear combo around here. or else... im gonna have to bring out the scarf. :laughing:

I think he wears the speedstar.

Still the suit looks good.

Just keep up the practice and you will be doing track days before you know it

Nice suit, matches the bike perfectly. Also glad to see you're letting the light-hearted insults slide.

I've got some new gear arriving this week too, including a 1-piece mostly black AGV SP4. Kinda feels like Christmas as a kid!

LoL, you do know it is impossible not to copy somebody's style. Do you think you are the first to want to get a red motorcycle and matching leathers??? Anyway, it looks nice. If you want to save some money, why not just leave the racing bodywork unpainted or just get the plainest job you can. Unless you care how you look THAT much.

nope, i don't think im the 1st one to match colors but i hope i don't see anybody else w/ the exact same bike and exact same gear as mine.

and nah... i know what paint scheme i want and i don't think im gonna see a lot of the same idea on others.

Heh, if you could have waited I saw some company selling the Teknic Chicane 1 piece leather suit (5 or 6 of 'em) on ebay for $199. I'd jump on it but they only come in size 38, I'll wear at LEAST a 44 (tall & slinder doesn't bode well for motorcycling)...

2006 Suzuki SV650S (Stolen 4/08, recovered 12/08, sold 3/09)

Being bikeless SUCKS!!!
