Hey everyone, just signed some paperwork on the R3 in red/white color combo. Come from around twenty something bikes, currently have a 2015 zx10r street legal but set up for the track. I do a lot of coaching at a small track with local men, women, and kids who want to learn more.

Looking forward to the R3, picking her up Tues or Wed, little unexpected to sign all the papers today so I didn't have my gear with me to take her home. looking forward to changing up a few things and making her much more track capable.

Forgot to mention, picked up the Graves fender eliminator while at the dealership, just ordered the front blinkers through TST Industries to clean things up a bit before doing other parts. Installing TechSpecs soon as well.

Haven't even ridden her yet but know I will be going with Spieglers or CoreMoto lines, CL C60 pads if available, converting to GP Shift, tires will be swapped out, still deciding if a slip on will do or if a full exhaust will be worth it. Need to send off an email and see if Arrow will be producing something for the R3. Factory sliders will be ordered when I pick up the bike on Tues or Wed.

Thanks everyone... Both me and my girl will be using the bike, she will transition from her CBR250R once she has a little more experience, and use the bike in the street and at the track. I will use a combo of this bike and my other one for coaching at the track and occasional twisties up in the mountains.

BTW, going to pick up the bike in a few minutes.
