I have had my 1290 on the track 2x already, I ride in the expert group and have put many riders to shame with it!!! I adjusted the bars and suspention to track settings..Really starting to get the feel for it...Nice vid

This has me pining to go do a trackday out there before the season's over.

The last time I rode a bike at HPR was my 990 just before I sold it, having separated my left shoulder the week before thinking that doing a trackday would still be a good idea.

Where is this place, HPR?

Been considering possible relocation to Co. but have been hesitant due to lack of knowledge about tracks available to ride. I know there is Thunder Valley to get my dirt kicks on but wasn't sure about asphalt.

About an hour east of Denver. There's also a relatively big kart\sumo track about 30m north of Denver called IMI which is fun for smaller bikes and it's only $40, show up anytime.

There are also two to the south which I haven't been to, Pikes Peak International Raceway (PPIR), which I've heard less than great things about, and Pueblo Motorsports Park (PMP), which is supposed to be pretty good.

You didn't tape up your brake light. I'm so used to NOT seeing them on bikes on the track... that's distracting.

We're actually planning a half day at PMP this upcoming weekend. I haven't yet had the chance to get my ST out on the track, so I'm taking both it and the 1290 down there. Excited to see how much of a difference the Motohooligan pegs and adjusters make.

That looks like a fun track...and on April 6th. My buddy in Denver says they are expecting at least one more snow but with weather like that in April...looks doable.
