what caboose said is correct... man you have to check pressures, on an ordinary road tire inflated to 38-40 psi, can get to 48psi+ on the track, that plays major issues with traction and side wall flex.
Experienced Track Racers: How Not To Lowside?
Hi guys,
Yesterday, I went for my first track day. The track was a lil too bumpy at one of the corners... Anyways, at the very end of the track day, I lowsided at that corner. Thank god I had my frame sliders on and my A-Stars full suit on, or else I would be lying in bed for a week!
Now my question is how to avoid a lowside?? Especially, when you feel that you are about to lose control of the bike...
Are there any usefull parts that should be considered for the bike to help avoiding a lowside??? Plz advise.
Thanks in advance.
