vivekjayasheel Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Hi guys! Is this forum exclusively for supersport and hypersport riders, or are supermotard riders welcome too? 36/m from India who recently got his hands on a 2009 Husqvarana SM-610. THIS THING CAN CORNER like NOTHING ELSE i've ever owned!!! Recently the superbike school had some sessions in India but unfortunately i wasn't able to attend them. I hope to change that next time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Rutter Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 We've got a regular on here who rides a Goldwing, so you're certainly not on the least track-oriented machine here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vivekjayasheel Posted August 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 That's awesome! I see you like spicy food, Steve? Been to India yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Rutter Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Not been, but I'd love to go, got a few Indian friends and they sometimes have us over for a night of proper Indian food, so much better than the stuff you get in any curry house here!

vivekjayasheel Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 I guess that's the same in any country... I used to think American food could be had at the local McDonalds, KFC, and Hard Rock Cafe, but the first time a dear friend invited me home for a southern-style dinner in Charlotte, i was completely blown away. And I know a lot of americans cringe when i tell them this but I also love GRITS! You ride an S1000RR? Isn't that a handful even around some of the fastest tracks? Especially in Race mode? I got to ride one only once and I came away terrified and shivering, LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Rutter Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Yeah the authentic home-cooked food is always the best, just a shame that so few visitors to a country never get to experience it properly and spend the whole time eating in restaurants. The S1000RR is a bit of a beast, I've actually mentioned in other threads on here that I prefer Sport mode, The throttle in race mode just seems a bit too digital and like turning on a light-switch, it requires a bit more finesse than I currently possess. I have yet to experiment with slick mode, but I get the feeling that I'll need to recalibrate a few of my senses if I do. The bike's great for masking how slow I actually am though, I can hang with the faster riders purely down to how quick the bike is Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
