I was scared at first but towards the end I wasnt as much. It was the way I was launching that was killing me. Before I leave for Canada I am going to try and make it to Sunshine try launching the way I was told

Send me those logs!

I rode an R1 yesterday with full LeoVince (titanium header, full exhaust). A lot of people put the R1 throttle tube on GSXR's and CBR's. It's a lot shorter stroke/pull. The R1 was very quick. Much quicker than my bike. So this got me thinking. I choked up on the throttle on my bike. Wow. What a difference. This whole time (including the track) I was not full throttle. Maybe 80%. I'm going to try hard to finish my appointments Wenesday and make it out to Sunshine. If the track is there I should have no problem going faster than my previous 7.162
