Mike, great to see you jumped into the track foray! Congrats and I hope you had a blast!
As far as the Wife letting you do it, that's awesome. Eventually she'll be telling you she wants to go with you and it will cost you twice as much like it costs me! Adding the Wifey to the equation...

Suspension on CRF150R
I worked on the suspension on the CRF150R the other day. Billy and I did the rear shock and I did the forks. Changed the springs to match my weight and new fork oil after the first break in rides.
It honestly is way faster than the KLX. I'm kind of a dinosaur and used to all the 2 strokes as well. What they've done is amazing with this little motor.
Having owned one of the original YZ400Fs and raced a CRF450 way back in 2003 I was familiar with the new 4 strokes, but for a 150cc bike I...
