Nice pic Fab, it's funny how racing does that to ya. Since I jumped back into racing a few years ago, my street bikes just kinda sit there. Might as well sell 'em & get a few closeout Huskys, hahaha. From 12/15 HS#6, a little endurocross action. A couple more on the way....
Thanks! That is exactly what I am doing now! My Buell is on the market. It is a bad time of year to sell a bike, but I am going to do everything in my power to own a TXC310R.
I got passed by a guy in my class and thought Id just chill and hang with him for a lap then Jap him before the finish, I look up and there's the checkered flap. It's a Polish thing I got going.
The Mrs. Said the reason guys can't have kids is because we'd sell them on the side of the road like puppies lol
Bryar Park/Loudon - 1983 AAMRR Mod Prod. 600 - '82 GPz 550 w/Moriwaki, Kerker, Dymag, Keihin CR, Metzeler, Auto Meter, Buell Rotors, Grimeca and a few custom bits. Same bike but first build w/Mikuni 29mm smooth bores which were too big, stock front brakes not up to the task. Was testing an 18" wheel up front compared to the 19" stock. Lost the easy stability from stock and just never handled as well. Taught me to early on carefully assess many mods. Increasing engine compression meant more engine braking and more critical braking/accelerating.
You must know my good buddy I taught to ride a bike literally, Jeff Heino. Went to college in Henniker, NH and I took him under my wing as a little kid. He went to the top pretty quick. Still good buddies.
Got to love the interweb... http://www.riderfiles.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/04/Heino-Jeff-1988-GNF.jpg
For a real treat you need to ask him about the sponsor for the race. Geisha girls ring a bell? I taught him well trust me. He hung with us as a kid at college parties and he always had my girl friends on his lap. Movie star looks and a personality to go with it, he and I, LOL. He made a few mistakes but got his life straightened out and is a good man to this day.
