Re: Speaking of Cadwell...

Hi. I want to know which exhaust will give me the best performance gains. Do you know? Also, which oil should I use? Do FRAM air filters really increase HP by 15%? Which steering dampener is best?

Re: Speaking of Cadwell...

Great pics.

Mind you, just about anybody can get at least one wheel off the ground over the so called Mountain, even me My second ever trackday. Crapping myself. Nearly flipped it first time up there. Calmed down a bit after that but must admit I was disappointed with my efforts in this photo

The guy that flogs the pics at trackdays has a sequence of photos of some geezer on a TL1000S. First pic is pretty good, front wheel nicely up. 2nd pic is even more impressive. 3rd is looking a little worrying as bike is vertical and the rider is trailing behind superman stylee. 4th pic the bike is upsidedown and the rider has become detached.
