Good job tho-EZ

cant argue with that !!!!!

100% true

need tires (take offs)? PM me
need a deal on a track day? PM me

disclaimer: I sell used tires (take-offs), these tires have been used at Jennings, Homestead, etc. (road courses for those that dont know) therefor these tires are more used up on the sides than in the middle,

there are a couple things that could attribute to the rear end feeling as if its kicking out. you should be barely putting any pressure on your knee. should have decent softer compound tires. dont over heat them. proper pressures. proper load of the suspension.

if your at the cloverleaf doing this, you're probably encountering over heating issues. my pilot powers would be good for 3-4 80-90mph laps and then it would feel a bit squirly.

also, not sure if you knew or not, but putting your knee out is only done for 2 reasons...recenter the bike, and give you a guage of your lean angle.

Kinetic is just off 19 in Hudson. Go north of 52 about 3/4 mile and look for Steve's World of Golf. Turn left at the median break and you'll see an "alley" leading to a set of buildings in the back. They're the first shop on the right. They upped their rates a couple of months ago, but its still the best $55 you'll spend for getting your shit dialed in.

Danny, like EZ said, check your tire pressure and body position.
welcome to the club!
