Hey! My name's Grant, and I'm from Dayton Ohio.
Currently, I ride track days on my Suzuki SV650 in the advanced group at Mid-Ohio sports car course, but would like to make it down to Maxton at some point (not on an SV). I joined this forum to get as much information as possible on building an LSR bike. I would have gone about the whole trackday thing differently, had I gotten more information before hand, and would not like to make the same mistake in this venture.
My intent is not to break any records (as I have nowhere near the kind of funding or mechanical know-how I would imagine one would need to do that), but rather to see what it's like to go 200 MPH. This is a life goal of mine (as was making it to A-group). My fastest so far is 150 (on an '03 ZR7S), but I know that next 50 Mph is a big, big step.
I would imaging this isn't something you just go out and do, but given today's motorcycle technology, I would think someone could come pretty close to my goal, without going too crazy with modifying the bike.
That's it for now, I'm off to go post in other threads, and see if I can get some advice from the bike guys/gals here. Thanks for reading....................
