Do they have the option of renting tire warmers? If not, buy some.

He will be fine if he takes it easy on them, he just has to know he has to take it easy on those tires. Especially in the morning.

thats what im tryin to say. they are designed for the track, just not for a novice rider. so long as he is cautious and isnt trying to break lap records he'll have a blast on em.

If he tries breaking lap records AFTER the initial 3-4 laps, he'll be fine.

yea.....



dont try to break any track records, though... tires arent everything, i hear rider experience, track familiarity, and many other factors contribute to laps times. Just a rumor i've heard.

Plus the only shiny trophy you get at a track day is hopefully your bike in one piece at the end of the day.
