        Video now......

        Here is the 1st video I made. In keeping with the theme of messing with Russell, this one was done for him.... The footage was all from Doug's camera since they were riding in a different group than I was.... Except the one from the side of the track. I took that with my other video cam...

          sweet vid, and the choice of music was...well... interesting to say the least.

          However, I've considered taking the wife's 675 as opposed to my R1 on friday... would you reccomend the middle-weight over the liter for a first trackday? I can conceivably go slow as to not kill myself first time out on my R1, but just a consideration of the 675 seems like a good idea...

          Other than expense to replace if I do go down, I can think of not many other reasons why I shouldn't take out her $10k baby.... (where as mine was only $4K)

            I would NEVER recommend a 1000 for a first track day to anyone, but really, it's your call.

            Music? As I said, it was in keeping with the theme of messing with Russell. I have another version for him with a different song.

                  Thanks Ron.

                  your advice may help me convince the wife to actually let me use her bike....
