Only bad thing about having a DRZ, when I went to ride the CBR hard the first time this season, I thought something was wrong with the bike. Suspension felt like shit, the bike handled like shit, the damn thing wouldn't turn. Then I remembered I wasn't on the DRZ and the thing doesn't have a 12" travel. It's definitely strange getting on the sportbike for the first time in the season.

Also, since the last time I had this thing on a track it has: new clutch plates and springs added a damper new shock serviced forks and resprung and revalved new chain and new gearing new brake pads and fluid other stuff that shouldn't affect performance/handling completely different machine... need to get this thing dialed in. I've documented all my settings and I'm going to make myself a little worksheet to keep track of all that stuff and changes i make, temp and conditions, etc...
