Riding intermediate now at NYST. And not the slowest as I made a couple passes. When I was passed, (which was alot, Lol) I was able to keep pace with them for a little. I dragged knee twice, but my reaction was to move my knee up, so I have to work on that.... And I didn't crash, while many others did, so that's a plus! We were running the downtown direction, which is not the norm. 2 Craig Mapstone Upstate New York Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're getting faster yet keeping your safety margins in place as evidenced by not ending up on your head. Good for you. That is common when you first start touching knees. It kind of startles you and a natural reaction is to pick it up, which is actually fine. It's weird because you can hear your knee down and that "Schick" sound the pucks make is a new noise. Passing (or being passed) is exciting too. Also a natural progression as your speed comes up. Get comfortable with it. Hanging on to those riders for a bit is good to a point. Be careful you don't get in over your head on a really fast one trying to keep close for too long. Grab a couple quick pointers and drop them, then grab the next guy by and repeat. Soon you'll be the dude being chased and, Rossi willing, in the Advanced Group some day. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spatt Posted July 28, 2020 Share Posted July 28, 2020 I want a 250 so bad but the parts are getting ridiculously hard to come by. Get your MT07 & FZ07 racing parts at https://www.robemengineering.com/fz-07-products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
50Joe Posted July 30, 2020 Share Posted July 30, 2020 A TZ250 is the way to go versus an RS250. Better in every way including finding parts. Now if you want to go the 125 route the RS125 is the way to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
