    Camera is a simple Olympus digital 1.3 megapixil. If you move with the object you get clearer pix. It shoot slow as molasses on highest quality. I was shooting all the pix on that page except the ones of the yellow 929 and the red TL ones doing wheelies on the straight. The person who shot those is in none of the pix. Her name is Connie.

    The buy with the glasses is Tim and he rides the other yellow and black 929 like mine. The other guy is Rob and he rides the red TL1000 as that was his first day at a track which explains the smile when he saw his tire wear and how far he had gotten over.

    By the way.. tire wear on a road bike is much diff then a tire bike or car. Unless you have seen tires that come off a indy car it is hard to explain but when the temp is right and tire is perfect temp you get the best grip which means that the tire isnt sliding and the road isnt giving in such a way that the tire simple breaks down and becomes hot little balls off rubber as it slides around the track. OK slides is a bad word. It is more like what keeps your ass to the pavement. And the harder you push it the more it balls up and gets goo-ee. I will go get a pix. BRB

    Tire wear... it is equal to smile size. The more your tire melts away the happier and bigger that smile gets [img]biggrin.gif[/img]

    It is one of those bike you spend more in tires for it then you do for the actual cost of the bike. [img]tongue.gif[/img] You know what I meant.
