Hi,

Triumph will be holding a track day and I hope to be attending. Its going to take place in our F1 track in Brazil. I've read that many of you have track experience on this bike so I ask for help on tips for track riding. I've been riding the S.Triple on the road for 1 year but never on a track. Are there any particularities? Maybe tire pressure, suspension setting, body position, etc.

Thanks.

Used to run 30 psi in my tyres on the track,helps them stay warm and sticky.Body position is forward to keep weight over the front wheel in corners.Best thing to do is just ask someone at the track with experience,we all have to start somewhere.I used to pick out the people i could notice that seemed quicker and smoother and follow there lines,believe me it helps.Just remember there is a lot of wankers out there and it is all about fun,doesn't matter if you come last as long as you enjoy yourself :hammer:

I took mine to JenningsGP in Florida, I ran 28 lbs.-rear and 30 lbs.-front.
Had no problems with traction... Have fun :upthumb:
