Nah - one track day in the last 5 years! Was hoping to do more this year but that's not happening now. I used to race years ago and toy with the idea of getting back into it periodically. Frankly I'm put off by the ferocious expenses and a decided lack of bottle on my part these days.. I only got this one as it was super cheap and I couldn't resist it as a track toy I could use a couple of times a year and not care about.
If I was back in the UK, I'd have a 600 as a track bike all day long over a thou. They are way less tiring to ride. The 750 is a happy medium. If you're sensible, I suppose you could just short shift a thou at 9-10K all day and get the same effect but the old eyeball roll straight line grunt is pretty addictive once you get out there.

How have you been getting on with the bike, had much track time? Went down a rabbit hole of looking at GSXR750/1000 for track duties and haven't really gone off the idea, especially since my track day now is cancelled. Fair point about saving the money on tyres.
