Plus my bike is getting a dry slipper installed while I'm out of town [thumbsup]

No more need for the tambourine clutch mod...

With $$ you can do anything. ;D There is a DP dry slipper kit for the 848.

It was great [thumbsup] The rain scared most of the people off and we probably had less than 25 bikes in Level 2.  The sun came out and by the end of session 2, the track was dry.  It got hot and the tires stuck to the track very nice.  The wet first 2 sessions allowed us to slow down and learn the track before getting too crazy.  There were over 10 ducs there including a new street fighter.  Great day overall....

Yes, the track surface has a lot of patches, but if you just have a little confidence in the transitions of the surfaces, you will notice that there is great traction throughout.  They made mention that they are still going after the contractor....  But I don't know anything about cones blocking anything.  The only cones are apex and reference point cones....nothing "on" the track.  I'm never gonna complain about a track that allows me to come and ride for $100.00 [moto]
