Yeah - at the start of the season I'm weird about wanting it to look good. By the end of the season I'll just be wanting it to pass tech inspection...

I think the GSXR looks good Will. Part of me wishes I was racing and then there is a part of me that knows that I have way more at stake than most of the people I would be racing against and I'm sure that I wouldn't be able to dial it back like I can at a track day event if I'm feeling a little less than spot on. I know I would get the "Red Mist" going and I'd be so competitive that I would have to run full out.

My wife and kids rely too heavily on me for me to assume that level of risk right now. Maybe later in life I can do some vintage racing. By the time I'm in a position to race, my 675 will be a vintage bike!
