A couple of you asked for some tips. So I thought about it and tried to figure out where to start. So I thought the best place to start would be the beginning!!! In other words, how to prep your own bike for the track. I know lots of people describe it in words, but I thought pictures would be better. Now here is the disclaimer: If you should cause any damage to your bike, I am not responsible nor is SBN. The following is just a guideline that happens to work for me. You will need to verify the chemicals in my example are appropriate for your make, model and year of bike.
I used my bike for all the pictures, so remember all reference points are on a 2004 Yamaha R6, your bike may or may not be the same. So make sure you use common sense when using the following tips.
With that being said, why did I decide to start with bike prep? Well it seems intimidating to those that don't know what it entails. Reality is that it is quite simple and any of you (us women) can do it. Remember that not all tracks have the same requirements and you will need to verify any additional requirements for the track you will be riding on.
Now, on to the fun stuff!!!! Getting your bike ready to rail on the track!!!!
Note: This is going to be long!!!
