Full disclosure: I have not been to a track day, nor have I raced. I've thought about a track day to learn more about the handling limits of my bikes, but not really interested in all out speed. Seems like it would be a good experience and nice knowledge to have.
I used to race a Yamaha 250 back in the day, took a break from '69 until '09 when I got a CBR1000RR. Did a few track days just to clear the cobwebs out, then traded it for the CB1100 because my wife wouldn't ride on the CBR. Soooo, I'm making the 1100 into a cafe wannabe and seriously eyeing the '14 Buell RX for the serious work.
But I will remove the limiter on the 1100, I just don't like the idea of it being there. On the other hand I haven't checked the tires on the 1100 to see what speed rating they have and its mighty windy above 100 on the 1100.
