All joking aside though, what are you doing to your bike thats any different from any other use ? All thats necessary is for it to be in a good roadworthy condition, especially on your first trackday. Its not like you're Jorge Lorenzo. I've been on loads of tracks, and never felt the need to do anything special to the bike to ' prep ' it. Just usual stuff, make sure all is how it should be, same as any other day.

Bought another one...
In several boxes, the front end & tank & a few other bits missing as have been sold, front pot has bad CCT-itus.
It's a breaker TBH.

Bike put on my home made abba stand and removed the rear wheel. Unbolted the swing arm and detached it from the bottom of the shock.
Ah well thats enough for one day, have rugby to watch.

Don't forget to take the gaffa tape to hold the bike together & band aids to hold you together...Oh no forget the band aids, I'm sure the medical center will have some.
Only joking Will, have fun but please don't bin it, because we all will be upset if you hurt your Storm.
