What improvements can I put on my bike for track days?
I'm just starting to race my Kawasaki ZX6R 2000 the runway. I want to upgrade the engine a bit but I do not know what all I can do to mine, because she is older and I'm having more difficulty to find stuff about it. I know I can rebuild the carbs, but is it worth it? So what are the other precautions to take to the track day. I read that I need caps for my son? Anything will help.
Well, in all reality, engine improvements are worthless. They do the top speed and maybe do a little faster on the line. Moral of the story, they arent WORTH the money spent! Most motorcycle riders; including myself, want to make them more powerful engine and upgraded, but think on the track how many times have you been surpassed in fifth? The answer is almost never even professionals do not use the bike to its potential at full speed on track. If you were to desert racing I would say to upgrade the engine, but the way you should not waste money. If your going to upgrade your bike, I strongly suggest updated suspension. Suspension makes all the difference on your bike, or if you do not want to pay for the upgrade suspension, at least, to take down the store and get the suspension adjusted to your height and weight. Itll cost about $ 200, but believe me it will make a huge difference in your walk. Precautions to take to track days, I would check all of your gear, simple things like gas and the son of candles, and the bolts is necessary. Believe it or not a very common problem is people who lose bolts in a race. Regarding the actual race, keep a high spatial awareness. Watch out for other riders to avoid collisions and do climb above your head, sometimes slower is faster. Be safe and Good luck! Hope this helps.
