Went to California Speedway with a friend of mine. Other than the extreme heat, it was a great day at the track. This was my first time taking the Aprilia to the track for a track day. I rode my friend's R6 for a session and was amazed at how much more comfortable I am on the Aprilia. We also felt that the Aprilia changes direction faster than the R6, which is insane for a 1000cc bike. Anyway here are a few pics.

Great Pics!! Looks like fun... Glad to see you putting the toy to good use! I couldn't even imagine wearing full leathers in this weather, that is a feat on its own...

Ya, it was really hot. Track temp was around 145 degrees. At least there is a lot of garage space at Cal Speedway.

Savage shots Ara! You look significantly more relaxed in this set as opposed to the last round of pics that you posted.

The Ape is looking sweet as well. Loving that bit of bluing on the Austin.

Thanks guys. I'm definitely getting more comfortable on the bike. Can't wait to put in more track time. The exhaust is made by Austin Racing out of England.
