    Track day only bro?

    :D Anyone here only do track days? Done about 10 so far and I am completely obsessed. Riding around town almost getting plastered by cars just isn't fun anymore. Not to mention Ohio has no real good "twisties". I could see if you were out in Cali or the fun mountain roads in Italy where i...

    Dyno Day Results

    The dealership I work for had our 19th anniversary open house and we brought in a mobile dyno so anyone could get in line and have a go. Being the employee who made the sign-up sheet, my name just happened to be at the top. :D I still had the rear-wheel sensor connected but had turned off all...

    To turn off our headlight on the 1299S is it better to just pull the fuse or disconnect the headlight?

    First track day on the 1199

    I had two days this past weekend at Buttonwillow (both directions) and I am so impressed by this bike. I'm coming off of a 2011 1198sp dedicated track bike. For the longest time I did not want to admit to myself that the 1199 was a better bike - especially after everything I invested into the...

    1299s what fast road and track day brake pads?

    I'm due to replace my front pads now I'm approaching 4k miles on my 1299s. Considering whether to stay OEM as happy with performance and life of these but wondering if there is a good aftermarket upgrade available? Out and out braking performance is priority but they have to last more than a...

    USA / West Coast Memorial day 28-30, Sequoia park?? Roads are so good there...!

    Hi, A friend of mine and me are planing on heading to Sequoia national park for a three day ride. There is another moto event at the park during this time (so there got to be a lot of bikes). But you will have to pay around $250 + We figured that, we may just crash in any random hotel near by...

    First Track Day Laguna Seca

    Just finished my first track day at Laguna Seca (and first track day ever). To speak to the capabilities of the bike (not myself), I ran a 1:43 (have to confirm on GoPro but that's what the headlight timer said), which I am rather thrilled about. Lots to work on of course. Will post...

    My close call at CMP Desmo day

    This was Desmo Track day at CMP on 9/12/15. I was on my 1199 and my buddy was on his Buell 1125R riding the advanced session. This was one of the last sessions of the day and by now our tires were starting to fail and we were both tired lol. We decided to go out and pace each other so we could...

    Second Track Day!!

    Second time ever on the on the track. I had a blast. I'm keeping my Pani in track mode, no longer riding in the street. I think I may purchase another more "street friendly, ie comfy" Ducati for the streets. I also put slicks on for the time on the track. I immediately felt the improvement...

    First track day on my 1199 :)

    Finally had my first track day, ever. Took an ART course beforehand and read through Keith Code's books too and that prepped me enough to not dump my bike on turn 1 (a decreasing radius off-camber turn). Ran 32/32 for my tire pressure (Supercorsa SPs) off of what the tire tech recommended...
