Going around the track, averaging 75mph (a friend timed a few laps for me), wasn't as adrenaline filled as I expected with three times the horsepower and tons more torque than the ninja. I'm thinking it is a combination of a relatively boring track (looooong curves that seemed to go forever), not being as comfortable with the Duc as the ninja, and not really pushing myself to the limit (crashing is bad <img src="images/smiles/icon_wink.gif" alt="Wink" border="0" /> ). I was going ~100mph around turn 8, and it just didn't feel very fast! It was still lots of fun, just not like I expected it to be. The weather was gorgeous, and I burned probably four gallons of gas for the 104 miles I went! Got some awesome pictures out of it though - <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/CLI_2222.jpg" border="0" /> <br />By caliphotography.com <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/CLI_0952.jpg" border="0" /> <br />By caliphotography.com <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4035.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4091.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4100.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4147.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4173.jpg" border="0" /> <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4178.jpg" border="0" /> <br />Look ma, no chicken strips! <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4181.jpg" border="0" /> <br />More right turns than left <br /> <br /><img src="http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a167/mattwood1221/IMG_4182.jpg" border="0" /> <br />So less junk on the left side</span> </td> </tr> </table></td> </tr> <tr> <td colspan="2" height="1" class="spaceRow"><img src="templates/ninja250rc/images/spacer.gif" alt="" width="1" height="1" /></td> </tr> </table>
