**The OFFICIAL TEAM GIXXER smacktalk thread**

[Tiller]

You want it, you got it...

Rider passes me on my warmup lap - and I spend the rest of the entire session after him...was fun..

In my best "Trevor" doing "Rossi" voice: "I follow hiiim, and I watch hiiim, and I study hiiim; find out where he's fast, and where I'm faster...and theeen, I pass hiiim...."

These laps are around 1:42-1:40 times...watch in 720P mode..

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you!!! Now I haven't something to stare at for 4.5 more weeks!!! That session looks like it was super fun. I would love to be able to get some open track like that together. I think we could mix it up and have a ton of fun!

Couldn't ever make out what bike you were chasing, BMW??? He had some knarly power wheelies coming out of 5 . If it was a BMW, I don't see enough of a power difference between the $6k gixxer and $15k BMW to justify it

GREAT pass on the BMW at the outside of 16 there at the end. I am impressed. Previoulsy, you would be very courteous and wait until the straight, but you stayed on it and made a good clean outside pass

I dunno what kind of bike it was either, but not a BMW (Tail not right looks more like a Honda) - but I'll tell you what (and I have vid of it too) I spent some more time chasing another guy on a newer Gixxer 750 that I never COULD pass (until he let me by); he was two down in the front, and that bike would flat SQUIRT out of the turns)...I'll try to convert it tonight.

That was about the thinnest track and most polite, that I've ever seen in A; I think we only had 3 red flags entire weekend...what the vid doesn't show is just how HOT it was out there...my Slicks never complained ONCE...

Guess I'm going to have to go +8 on my gixxer sprocket

Nice smooth lines!
Good session!
You were reeling that guy in!

And THIS is how it feels to get smoked by a PRO...the entire bike was sliding toward the kitty litter, then it caught, and off he went....

Bullcrap, 'cause that's where you always pass me

??? I said I "FEEL" like that in turn 5, but actually look like a scared little chicken whose afraid to go in hot

I never asked you how you liked the clip-ons? You may not adjusted them to where it changed the riding position much?

 

[skydivr]

I didn't really notice the difference in the clip-ons....until I got on Charlie's bike, and thought "wow, my bike was tight like this"...so yes a big difference. I think it's a good thing that I really don't notice them when I'm riding...probably haven't explored what the additional range may give me yet...

Who you callin Chicken? You can call me all the names you want - after you come make a skydive with me

Well...this IS the SMACKTALK thread

True true!

So a new 12x12 canopy, huh? Is that because you actually need the extra space, or because you're like guys with 12" lifted trucks on 37" tires and overcompensating for something???

 

[skydivr]

That's MORE like it! I needed a larger canopy in order to keep my AWESOMENESS (since Jet Li isn't around) out of the sun

OR...

I dunno, why don't you ask Felix that question? lease:

SHINEY!!! Those look great! Love the side to side ankle protection to restrict too much side to side anke movement.

Are those just the new version of what you have or a different model? Linky please! These are going to have to go on the WANT list

 

[Twobrothersbusa]

They are the same Torque Out boot...just 4 years newer.
