@@jerrymorales6501 due to some friends in area MSRH came first on the list, definitely not the last track I'll hit in Texas though!! Compared to other tracks I've seen around the country the pavement patches do make it a little interesting, but all in all a great track with plenty of grip to go around! Eagles canyon is definitely next on my list for tracks I want to try!!

@@BazingaTrainz umm yes

@@carlossheppard1983 the price is definitely a little up there, I just found that after multiple changes this does save my knees. That and after I got the hang of it my time was shortened a lot.

Front/rear stand, tire stand, bike stand. I've heard a lot of different names but when I googled this it came up with the right options so I stuck with it.

@ right on I’ve always heard bike stand Front and rear

@kevinraabe8643 yeah I think most my buddies default to "stands" to keep it easy

@ yeah exactly. 👍🏻👍🏻

I can definitely get behind that reasoning!!

Pitbull definitely seems to have the highest quality!! The price tag reflects that though

@JKMotoEntertainment buy once, cry once, sir. Nice thing is they'll outlast your grandkids.

Fair point!

@@patrickstevens3721 that's what I'm talking about!! It'll be a freedom you didn't know you were missing out on! Motorcycles are an amazing addiction! Thank you!

Good tips, thank you!! I honestly usually just let mine sit or pull them out on a sunny day and do some neighborhood laps to ensure their up to temp!

Thanks for the input!!

With the trickle, I've always left it on when the bike is not in use. I'm definitely no battery expert, but the trickle chargers are usually good about only charging when there is a need for it.

@NHlocal Full it to the top. This prevents the inside of the tank from sweating as temperatures go up and down during off season. It prevents rust on tank walls and gas with rusty water in come spring.

Agree with what else was said, should have mentioned that in the video good catch!! Snowboard season is starting for some (lucky you) for me sadly I just get colder and more wet lol

@@peytonhibdon7659 That was my thinking based on what I've heard and my own experience. Thanks and keep yourself safe! 😎👊❤🏍

@@JKMotoEntertainment No snow??? That is sad..... great way to keep in shape during the winter for sure. 😎👊

Definitely miss living in an area with the snow, snowboarding was a big hobby of mine before!!

Lol, this one is focused on the bikes we'll have to put out a "rider winter lay up" video later on to cover these topics you mentioned. 🤣

@JKMotoEntertainment That was for the 🏍. They are addicted to the shindig too. The Red Rocker gets grouchy when not properly thrashed on a regular basis 🤪🤪🤪

Fair enough, do you have any good tips for helping the bikes through the long off season?

@JKMotoEntertainment If you choose to start the bike in the cold be sure to let it get warm and heat sink for 25 or 20 minutes. Then restart the bike and let it come up to full temperature and idle several minutes. If it is truly warm throughout it will sweat internally which is detrimental to the oil ability to protect the internals.

@peytonhibdon7659 good to know, thanks for that info!!

Thank you! Definitely a little bit of a learning curve, especially without watching the Rabaconda tutorial first. After some good practice, and all the tips from these comments use has gotten much better!

@@garrysimmons111 nothing wrong with that!! I definitely prefer the opposite, and I'll add that it does change a little if you start pursuing racing. But I'll always respect differences in opinion thanks for the comment!

I wasn't aware of that, but it does make sense and the timeline you mentioned definitely holds true. My opinion would be that a manufacturer would continue to make updates no matter who the new riders are, but I'll have to do some more research on that now, because now you've got me thinking.

@ yeah. What makes it worse is that Jorge will be hoping on essentially a 2 year old bike but since they are doing so horrible this year I think it puts them in a lower tier allowing to test more

I really hope for Jorge's sake they can get a good package out there! He's definitely got talent and it'll make next season a lot more fun if there's some other brands riding in the front also!

Thanks for this feedback! I don't remember mentioning a friend winning a race but I'll have to rewatch the video and see where that was. I do believe that I also mentioned all the things that you mentioned here in your comment, but it's nice to hear it again. I definitely don't know everything, in fact I know quite a little which is why I usually start the video (as in this one) with stating that these are my opinions. But once again thank you for the feedback and for watching the entire video to see all the points. I'll take this onboard moving forward.

@@adammartinez1509 I don't know of any stores that carry them yet, but they're available on the rabaconda website.

@@512460 I think you do have a small change in wheelbase and therefore a small change in handling. The bike is designed for that though, chains will stretch over time, so there does have to be some wiggle room for adjustment.

@@512460 when you place the wheel all the way forward you obviously shorten the wheelbase but it also helps the bikes change of direction. It will be a bit nervous feeling though. In opposite, when you put it all the back in the drop outs (bmx guy at heart) you give the bike stability in the turns although it’s not as agile from side to side. Hope that helps

@@vr46nh69bs11 haha yes my friend you spotted the bmx terminology haha.. Yes my fellow bmxr haha. Appreciate that you noticed and the detailed insight

Tank grips are definitely a good addition!! The tire warmers I would argue don't fall in the Modification category, but I agree definitely a good thing to have whether on streets or slicks!! Thanks for the input!

@@zx10prang lol good to know!

100% agree! Had it on my mind but it didn't quite make the top 5, definitely something that hinders your ability to ride and is unnecessary though!!

As all of his bikes have tinted windscreens, lol. Nice bikes and good points!

Can't resist the blue lol

Hit me up on Instagram @jkmotopodcast

Lol, the spiked bolts help keep the mosquitos away 🤣 I do agree with the non visible windscreens though, that one almost made my list!!

What is wrong with blacked out windscreens?

@ I know they are for looks but it makes life hard when you show up to the track with one not realizing you need to see through it going down any straight or pretty much anytime your fully tucked in! It’s worse than riding at night with a tinted shield on your helmet

@vr46nh69bs11 I completely agree with you! Probably not something that many people think of either since it's rare to be in a full tuck on the road.

@@danwinters3948 that definitely makes the balancing much easier in the end, but I wouldn't personally say it's absolutely necessary. Thanks for that input though, I agree!!

@@peytonhibdon7659 found that out the hard way, even under a rug stands don't cooperate well. That's some good input appreciate it!!

@workingclasscustoms Dig the channel and the effort put in. Just back from Tally and headed to NCM next weekend. Feeding the addiction proper every chance I get 🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑🤑

I think I'll be hitting NCM next season, looks like a fun track!! Thanks!

@@pabsocs googled "wiring diagram" for make model and year, found a photo on a reddit thread, verified that wires from other parts of the harness were correctly labeled by the drawing and hoped for the best after that.

It's definitely awesome to see all the different bike types out there enjoying the ride!! Glad to hear that happens all over, I'm a big believer in any bike being fun at a track day!!!

@@smus2845 wish I could've been there!! Any updates to the track yet?

I bought an Arai because I have a weird head shape and it’s the only one that doesn’t give me headaches

Definitely good info that I haven't heard before! I've been wearing this for track days and club racing with no comments from tech or any fellow racers yet, but I'll take a deeper look into that. Maybe just certain models? I definitely agree that your helmet should be your top priority, pretty hard to race motorcycles with no head.

Arai definitely offers great helmets!! Pricey but extremely high quality for sure!

@@JKMotoEntertainment you can always find deals! I only paid $600 for mine. Retail was like $850

Buying year-end closeouts has always been my go-to for deals like that! Definitely out there!!

Glad to help!! Thanks for the comment and feedback!

I'll be ready to take some good notes!!

@bittingermotorsports sorry man it is B.S. Gotta keep the motor behind the scenes running. I’ll get there eventually.

Money back, in route!

Thanks for that input!! Definitely agree with the 2 that you added, until you're on the world stage competing in the top 3 riders are you actually fast? Lol definitely safer in an area where everyone has similar goals and moves the same direction at relatively similar speeds.

That's a fair point! I'd still argue it's totally worth it

@@JKMotoEntertainment oh I don't disagree with that I believe it's a investment too. So I agree with that just saying that this may be a financial stumbling block for some which could deter them. I'd like to do some track time and I'd like to be taught how to ride as everything I've learnt is from videos so I haven't have anybody to tell me if I'm doing it correctly or not.

Doing a track day and getting some coaching is definitely a great way to learn quickly and fix "bad habits" before they become full muscle memory!!

That's a good one!! Just not being ready as a rider or not being fast enough have definitely been thrown around a lot!

This is so much great input!! Definitely all good points thank you for noting them!! I agree that we can only do so much, in the end it's up to the individual. But I have also gotten several people out to track days by inviting them just to spectate, that often gives them more want to try it out. I think it helps it feels more attainable when they're there witnessing you do it!!!

Good point!! Definitely agree with that, there are plenty of resources out there now to help you through whatever hurdles you must find!!

This list was based off the questions I've been asked the most. Surprisingly most people I've talked with haven't had any questions or worries about that. I agree that that's a good topic though, definitely safer to ride on a track than on the road!!! Enjoy your first!

@@JKMotoEntertainment really you don't get that question? I'm impressed, when I talk to people here in Mexico is usually either the cost or the safety of the event. I really enjoy your content so keep up

@@ricardomorales1039 most of the questions I get about safety come from non riders but the people with bikes usually don't bring that subject up. Thank you!!

Much safer to do trackdays and practice your technique than it is to practice the same things on the street. Everyone is going the same direction, no oncoming traffic, no oil/debris on the road (and if it shows up, they red flag the session, or they black flag the rider causing a potential hazard). Obviously, nothing is always 100% safe, but the risks are greatly reduced versus street riding.

@@jasonsarmiento3029 absolutely agree with that!! Also you're required to wear full safety gear, where on the street it's not always required and can be tempting on a hot day to ride unprotected.

Let's not forget where you are though!! Great advice, why wait?

I'm actually shopping for my first bike, and let's just say right now I wouldn't even be able to ride it if I had it in public that is 😂 but I can on the TRACK! So I'm going to try and get as much track time as possible before I even get out on the road...

@@JKMotoEntertainment why wait exactly. If I didn’t wait, maybe I’d be battling your boy for a MotoGP title right now 😂😂

@@ExcelleratedOG sounds like a great idea. I can tell you now that you’ll learn more in one or two Track days than you would and years of writing on the street.

@@anthonylugnutnorton2659 easy there, let's not get ahead of ourselves now lol

@@langhamp8912 it's definitely a culture, and the paddock is truly just a giant family!! Doing what we can over here to get more people out there!

That is a good point, I guess those of us that are still speed demons just get to have all the fun!!

I will definitely have to add that one to my list!! 7 hours isn't a short trip but not bad either if you're living in the Dakotas

Thanks for that input!! Definitely true that personal safety should be at the top of your list at all times!!

That's what I'm talking about!! I've even seen full baggers out there having a great time!

50mm or 48mm

Which bike are you asking about?

@@JKMotoEntertainmentk8 750

@@JKMotoEntertainmentthe bike with race fairings

48mm

I agree, thanks for the correction at the time I didn't see that as quite important enough to correct but you are right.

@@TimCovington-n8e appreciate that!! We'll definitely check it out! Always open to learning more!!

Hell yeah!! Definitely tons of options down there in SoCal! Lots of iconic tracks and tons of track day orgs to choose from!!!

@@TimCovington-n8e that is correct!

@@langhamp8912 that's a good point!! Dirt bikes are definitely taller and can help a person get used to that tiptoe feeling on a lighter option!
