The tires are BT012Rs... The rear has tons of meat left on the edges and not much left down the center. The front is actually on my 636 at the moment, I forgot thats the wheel/tire I threw on there while waiting for a replacement BT014... Not really worth it without the matching set.

Was that on the SV650? The same day he crashed because he tried squeezing just a little more life out of tires that had nothing left?

Hi everyone,
I met a lot of you there (I'm the big guy...) It was a pleasure! I can't believe that the season is almost over... I had a great weekend & a blast dicing it up with cakes on Sunday.

I thought I was the big guy there I think I saw you buy that guys CBR who had the hole in the case after his get off. I know a few of the guys finally figured out who I was after seeing each other at a bunch of track days

All in all I had a good time albeit a short one due to my knees crapping out, guess its time for a couple of knee replacements so I can ride longer

Hey folks, I am glad Beaver had such rideable weather this weekend. Might be my last run for the season, but it was a great time.
Glad so many people made it out there.

Good times folks - Glad everyone made the trip out.
We ended up very lucky with the weather, with wet
mornings drying up before lunch each day.
Can't wait for the next one, but it may not be till next season...

Great weekend for all, well maybe not for Mack(sorry). Beyond that, a little a.m. rain kept most people sane and smooth. Then rocked it in the afternoon dryness! I don't go out much on the Blue group but I did a lot od blue sessions this weekend. Once I got past the 'politeness' I usually use on the track I got my times down pretty good again. All in all I rode almost 450 track miles
Glad to see most of the old group there and some new faces at the Beev. Chris, way to go!

BOB it's all good. I had a great time on Saturday and was running fairly well with decent times. Was hoping to have a better day on Sunday especially when the rain clear. But hey shit happens I'm alive....my bike well that's another story. Still thinking about what I want to do. I have a whole winter to figure it out. I'm already looking forward to next track season.

Thanks Bob.

It was great to finally see everyone together in one big group instead of seeing different people at different days and it definintly made the trip well worth it!

I'll definintly being going back to Beaver first thing next season. The track just flows so well. For the first time ever there I started off rather slow as I expected and all over the place for the couple of sessions in the morning but eventually by the end of my first day I was running a decent pace (not what I had hoped to run).

But by the end of the second day I accomplished my set goals and went even further thanks to Stiff I was able to run a couple of 1:04.90's. Next time there my goal is to run that consistantly.

First time at the Beav was great and I can't fucking wait to do it again. I kinda wished they ran a sat/sun/mon cause I would have jumped all over that.

(Yea I know I missed my apex )
