  1. Good morning all, I purchased an 08 R6 last summer and it is a complete change from the last bike I owned back in 1996 (Suzuki Katana). I took a twelve year layoff from riding, due to more responsibilities ie...kids. Now that I have some free time and they are little more self sufficient I decided to purchase a new bike. I am in the military and one of the hot topics is "safety". I have been researching the correct riding styles for these high performance machines. I have purchased both TOW I and II, great books by the way. I am going to retake the MSF course for refresher this Spring and enjoy the spring/summer days when they get here. One of my big problems so far since I have been riding is twistie roads. Everything else I am comfortable with ie...highways and such. I just seem to not fully trust that the bike will not slip out from beneath me and the limits the bike can be pushed. I know that my posture on the bike is garbage and this is why I am on the forum. Looking for great tips and hopefully in time the confidence will get better. I have never been to a trackday and don't know that I will quite yet. For me, I enjoy just riding on the roads. Thanks
