Took me a while to get used to the bike. No knee draggin this time, still getting my suspension dialed in. I had a problem with REALLY REALLY hard late braking, I kept bottoming out the front end. My F4i was an easier machine to track, Ill tell ya that right now. But man if that TL doesnt pull something fierce. Once I got the suspension setup correctly it was MUCH easier, and the learning curve was way smoother. I'm hopin to get back again next month, if employment (rather pay) allows. Here is another pic in AFM turn. My GF got better photos with some 400x zoom on her Rebel XSI slr gnar cam lol. I'll post hers up later tonight.

There were a couple out there like that. The club has gotten much less lax in their requirements I guess, they no longer require the swap from antifreeze to engine ice/water wetter anymore as well...odd. Everyone in street trim or no tape had fuses removed to stop lights and the like so it wasnt major. Only one bad accident too, the rest were just runoffs.
