I think it's a stick-on helmet ponytail..

Ok, here's my take,

I have heard that some of the best race training starts on something like a XR100, in the dirt, then on something small on the track in order to learn the roots of cornering and technique before managing power. Those guys look like they are having a blast and I assume training on those little bikes and track.

I think I am an OK rider but know I could not handle and emergency in a corner when I am pushing it near my limits, I have been riding 10 years, but I can't drag a knee either. I would really like to learn more technique and control. Should a guy get a beat up honda CBR125 and go nuts, practicing somewhere and getting the feel of having a knee down and maybe losing it somewhere in a safe area with lots of gear?

I have never wiped out and I never want to, especially on my Kat, or something else in the future if I ever upgrade.

After seeing that I would be really inspired to find something to train on. I have no where to go locally for some training and I don't want to trash my ride by pushing it on a track and having an oops.

What do you guys think?

I also really like the full size Aprilla? 125 race bike, but for $7000, too much for me to ever afford for a play bike.

i go to a mini-track. i got my knee down on my second night.
i ride a wee little yami 125, and it is fantastic!

the skills are totally transferable to the big track too (woot!)
