Curious to see if anyone else is taking their Buell to the track. Been there myself 6 times and have had a blast each time ( track is Grattan in Michigan).
 
Yup, before I was even a Buell owner, I took an XB9 to our local track, which happens to have a front straight of over 1 mile! Not the best track track for any V-twin, let alone a little 9, no matter how well it handled the twisty sections it just got eaten! :(
 
I am trying! I have summit point an hour from my house. I am only off on tuesdays and sundays and every track day on those days this year has been snow, thunderstorms, or I was broke. I haven't given up hope yet though!
 
Summit point was a very mentally and physically exhausting track for me.
It's great that some of you guys live so close
I wish I lived an hour away from it so I could ride it often and master it
 
Grattan is a very technical track, 14 turns, 12 of which are blind. Tons of fun! I find my bike dominates in the turns, but lags in the straightaways.
 
Here's my old CR.
