NEXT TRACK DAY SUNDAY MAY 8th 2100

The barrier has been removed to becoming a better rider and finding out what your bike can “really do”……….SAFELY! There is a new track day organization available to the riding public through Eagles Canyon Raceway in partnership with Komodo Gear and Island Racing Services. We are not interested in “certifying” you, turning you into a “racer” or intimidating you because you have never ridden on “a race track”. What we are interested in doing, is showing you how much fun a Sportbike can be! But, I must warn you; you will probably learn a hell of a lot as well!!

It’s all about having FUN! You can now get your sport bike on a real race track and ride alongside your friends in a safe and friendly environment. Classes will be smaller than other track day providers, so you will receive real, personal attention from the instructors who are industry experts. You will also benefit from discussions on track essentials, defensive riding and the incredible technology that has gone into your bike. It all amounts to being a better rider and having a really good time.

6 Steps to Prepare Your Sportbike for a Day at the Track

April 3, 2011
By

Because the track is not the street, we have come up with a several recommendations for making your track day more successful.

We would love to hear your raceday bike tips

Motorcycle Technical and Preparation:

Headlight and Blinkers – Tape over your headlight, tail light, turn signal lenses and any reflectors.  Remove your mirros.   We also recommend taping over your speedometer; it will only distract you. Painters tape works best.

Bodywork:

Tighten down all the bits; double check the bolts and screws.  This means check everything before flight!  So don’t overlook your mirrors, turn signals, horn, etc.  It’ll make the bike safer for everyone on the track.

Lights:

Before you get on the track you’ll need to disconnect the headlight and the brake light.  The heat generated from the bulbs could “bake” the tape on – ugh…

Tires:

The facts are simple when it comes to tires.  Street tire pressures will be fine if you’re running street tires and not riding beyond their engineered purpose.  Consult with your dealer on the type tire you are using for accurate pressures.  Tires really make a difference on the track; we recommend the Michelin Power One for track day use

Apparel – Safety and Protection:
Wear a quality leather riding suit, full gauntlet leather gloves and sport riding boots.  Two-pieces leathers that zip together and one piece leather suits are perfect.  No mesh products (gloves, jackets or pants) as they present too much liability.

Helmet:

Full face helmets are the way to go; certifications such as D.O.T. and Snell are good.

Spine:

Highly overlooked by all riders; use a back protector, they are worth their weight in gold.
