Re: Change Of Pace
So you're picking up a TZ?

Re: Change Of Pace
Lets just say I'm active in the market for something different. Yes, looking for a dedicated track day bike. I've got enough street stuff and to be honest, I ride the Motards 90% of the time on the roads anyhow. Still keeping the rz's thoughT.RexRacing wrote:So you're picking up a TZ?

T, my buddys 98 Tz is very, very nice. Some really trick kit parts on there including the CF self supporting seat unit. I've NEVER seen one of those on a tz.

Pete, you've got to stop spending so much on the bikes and buy a new pair of jeans.

Definitely not the bike I would want to see sliding away from me through the runoff and into the air fence. The bank account would sound like a slot machine paying out... LolT.RexRacing wrote:Hmmmmmmm...........................make a nice track bike.
Re: Change Of Pace
Those thing with good rubber stick like $h!t to a blanket. Chances of sliding it down the track are much slimmer than any street shod bike...unless you encounter rain while on your slicks.

Re: Change Of Pace
Simple solution, race, don't ride with squids. The F2 class needs to come back.

Re: Change Of Pace
Your choice! The things you have to do to have fun.
I'm drooling all over my keyboard looking at that TZ.

Re: Change Of Pace
I rather wear tattered jeans and ride than new ones sitting in front of the idiot box.
And the idiots are why I cannot do track days. I get yelled at for sliding,wheelies coming out of slow corners and pushing toads out of the way. My brain cannot differentiate between track day and race day. Hell I got yelled at when racing for the same shit.
On September some guy with a new KTM RC390 is supposed to show me how slow and outdated my RZ is at Summit Point Shenandoah circuit. I will get banned for life on that one.....................if he shows. It is the internet after all.
I need to drop some tonnage to fit into the leathers too.
