you made me look back at my records after I saw that laptime....this is VIR North course
1:32 flat on a Yamaha R1 superbike :D
1:34.5 on a Yamaha TZ 250cc GP bike
1:37.9 on a Yamaha TZ 125cc GP bike
The R1 was handling like crap that day, but I'm sure someone else could have flogged it around the track a couple seconds quicker.

* these were from different events from 2003 to 2005

Good Fun,
Steve
 
hows the leg now rufus?

What did he do, pin you into the bike with the bumper?

Im a fan of street bikes, and would buy one in a second if I had the cash...but Im scared to death of them at the same time..

If i had money, Id drop it on a Ninja 500 or 650...both seem to be good starting bikes.
 
Ninja 500 is an awesome starter bike, and good to keep as a track bike (a whole lot cheaper, tires every 5 weekends instead of 2 or 3 set per weekend with a modern sportbike). I have no idea at all on the Ninja 650.

I thought I made a good choice with a Hayabusa as my first bike...(yeah right)...

...I got a deal on it I couldn't pass up...

...never took that safety course...but did ride with some sense...

...then again...a Hayabusa is barely even a 'sport' bike...more a cruiser...but it goes sorta fast...

...get some frame sliders...it saved my bike when I dropped it at Bojangles...yeah I said it...I dropped it...after riding that thing though I feel like I could throw a R6 over my shoulder and take a run...

...ride with half a brain...
