I see alot of nice T-bird Cafe Racers but I never see any videos of any of them on the track. I see Thruxtons but no T-birds.
Anyone have any vids to share?

I think it would be a blast to go on the track. But, since these aren't made anymore, and there is that chance of dumping it on the track... That's probably why most don't take them on track days.

Never was passed the whole day my 1st time at Streets of willow on BT-023 tire in the slow people group. The bike did fine just pushed the front end a bunch if I trail braked to much.

TurboDerek: Ouch, did you drag those triple deckers on the right side? I've done several track days with my 01 Turbo ST, which has Race Teck Emulators in front, and an Ohlins in the back, but I've never done a track day on the TBS. However, I've had both bikes at the Ozark Rat Raid, and the TBS is the quicker of the 2 in the twisties! Tommyturbo2

after a few drags I changed my body position to reduce the lean angle.
