  • I took my BMW S1000RR to the racetrack for the first time and here's what I learned. Get tips and advice when riding a motorcycle on the track
    Do you want to improve your riding skills on the street or track?
    Are you tired of all the hype from Yammie or others about street riders not skillful enough for the track?
    Does a street rider with two decades of experience have what it takes to compete on the track?
    You decide...
    It was a members-only day so we had the entire motorcycle track to ourselves. It costs thousands to be a member at this track so I want to thank ​⁠@Theshayman for hosting.

      Well done! You did awesome, especially for your first time. I'm impressed. I'm pretty sure I caught one of your most recent videos, early in the day. When I went to watch it and it was no where to be found & I went thru all of your vids. It showed your bike what looked like up on a wooden trailer.???

    Good tip on weighting the pegs.
    If you use your leg's to lift you up and off the seat those transitions start looking cleaner instead of looking like hopping.great video.

    Shits 10x harder then ppl think… never did it with bikes but used to have customers who ran auto cross… they had really fast cars and could drive but the old guys in their Miata’s would wear them out cause they actually raced often… lol

    Great vid BRO! It looked like you had a blast! I'm sure it was a little intimidating riding with a legit track guy. He looked EXTREMELY comfortable out there and had his tuck/form nailed. My question is, how did it feel to run hard rip those turns and not have to worry about cars and you know whos? I'm sure it helped with your focus.

      The BRO doesn’t get intimated. But yes he’s fast and a little boring with no cars to slice. 😎

    Dragging the knee (especially for the first time) Is fun.. elbow.. awesome, until moments later you drag shoulder and the asphalt pulls you off the bike.
    Good tips! Going to come out and catch the CMRA races at the end of the month? Going to do more track days? (found you through the link in AK's channel)

      What’s up bro thanks for stopping by. No shoulder dragging here. IDK it’s alright but $9500 + a bike is why 99% of people don’t ride track. You guys can take me out whenever though 🫡😎

    5000 sounds like to be a member at MSRH. You can do trackdays at Ridesmart which is $200 a day. Also, you can do mini bike racing at kart tracks. TmGP is one we ride on. Groms and 65s race there its good fun
