The Gixxer sure was different from the TLR. The front end wanted to lift coming out of the turns, making it a little hard to get used to. Suspension was dialed in good. Had a rider lowside right in front of me. Had to force myself not to look back at him...or I'd be joining him for sure. Just stay on line. Last lap, coming down the straight, speedo reading 155, and rain hit me in the face like a wall. Probably not that hard, but enough to spook you as you reach the brake markers. I just had to trust my tires and throw it in the turn. Bern from TLPlanet went down early in the day. He's posting so I guess he's okay. I ran new D208 GP-A tires. Great tires. I ran H2's the last time and they were not as predictable for me.

Time to go put the bike back for street riding. Street riding will suck for a few days :-)
