I've enjoyed lightly pushing my Lightning on the streets and reading roadracing manuals (off the bike). Any instruction/learning to be had at an Inside Pass day - or mainly just an opportunity to demo different bikes and not eat up your own tires? Regardless,at $150, it still sounds like a good value! Would I be better off just saving the $$ for a Bargy or similar school? Don |

Do the Buell. There will be instructors there taking each group out on the track. Let them know you would like them to help you become a better rider and you will probably get more "help" than you wanted. PLUS... They feed you... T-Shirt.... Knee pucks.... Its all good! |

Yup, what Wolfie said. Bargy is a great school to attend, and if you already have a track day or two under ya it will be much more fun! |

Do you really get to spend much time on the demo bikes? My buddy has an R6. Undoubtedly if he attended, he'd leave the day dissatisfied with his Yammie - but would he be welcome too?

Anybody/Any bike is welcome. You could ride demo bikes for all but the 1st session. |

I think part of the goal of this program is to get people would would never walk into a Harley dealer, to ride a Buell. It works too. About 1/3 of the people at the event I went to last year were not Buell owners. |
