Wow, the sparks on that first picture are dope. I hope that's from a foot peg scraping and not your exhaust haha

[–] wxr@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Thanks. Yes it's the peg :)

Exhaust pipe is just a consumable

Awesome! Are those all your bikes? That's some pretty extreme riding you're doing. How often do you practice?

[–] wxr@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Thanks ☺ First one is my honda cbf 600 used for the street. The second one is a suzuki gsxr-600 i got really cheap. I just put a red racing fairing on it. It's the same bike as the second picture.

I got around 6 track days per year

[–] wxr@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

first is hockenheimring. The rest is anneau du rhin in france

maaaaaaaan i wanna get into track days. this ish looks so fkn fun

ive never gone knee down

[–] wxr@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It is! The first time getting a knee down was amazing 😁

You need the right bike though. Preferably a supersport. And the right suspension settings! It's crazy how much a good suspension can do for you on the track

i bet dude. looks sick thats for dang sure

i have only rode dirt bikes and dual sports, part of the KLR gang atm but ive been thinking of picking up one of those new Kawasaki 400s (either the zx4rr or ninja cuz its so dang cheap) and maybe get my toes wet at some point
