Yamaha R1 Motorcycle Track Day @ Buttonwillow: How not to Ride

Hey guys, this video is of my first real riding of my 2016 R1 since I fixed the engine. What a great day of riding, but wow I don't think I hit an apex all day. What I did do is get a lot of video of me blocking better riders and it is kinda funny.
My Stuff:
2016 Yamaha R1, FlashTune ECU (Bikeside Harness), Graves Performance Carbon Fiber SlipOns w/MJS mid-pipe and some other cool stuff. Most HP Gain came from Red R1 Brake Res. Cover
LS2 Helmet
Drift Ghost S Helmet Cam w/the Drift wired mic
Alpinestar Perforated Jacket (red and white)
Alpinestar Boots (white leather), with those strapy things
Alpinestar Gloves, with those strapy things
Premier Pro Editig software
Badass Gaming PC (Windows 10)
and of course Dees
BF4 Gamer tag I_am_la11 (oh and BF1 sucks)
"WALL" clan cuz this World is made of WALLS and those WALLS need to be defended by men with guns.
Oh, and don't forget to New Jack Swing on Dees

So everyone knows this is group B. And for anyone that I slowed down this day I apologize. I am actually a better rider than this video depicts, but I spent most of the day not focusing on anything and u can see that in my shitting lines... LoL.

[@peteatthebeach4838]

I did that track for the 1st time last weekend! Really fun day. Your lines will improve. I sucked the first couple of sessions LOL

[@IamLaR1]

Yeah...I wasn't even thinking about lines and hitting the apex and all the stuff one should be thinking about...hahaha. But I still had a blast. Have a blessed one my friend, and thank you for watching and commenting on my vids.

[@IamLaR1]

Hey man, thanks for visiting my channel and commenting. Much love bro.

[@SouthernSportbikes]

I am La good luck with the channel. I gave you a sub.

[@jasontom6642]

Sweet, thanks for sharing. Enjoyed it.

[@IamLaR1]

Glad you enjoyed it

Lol I can relate to bad lines and self aware jackass moment; I was there yesterday in C group since been years since last time. I was sort of aggressive but not trying to pass until straight away; went off track two times; once at last long sweeper into S ones but barely (too fast for my skill set), horrible lines and second run off was I 5 to turn 3. I didn’t have anyone in front of me so pinned throttle too much, shift rod snagged on fairing (I take %95 fault though) so had to brake hard n locked back up for split second but decided to coast in dirt instead of risk taking out another rider. Kept bike up and eventually called it a day since was in late afternoon. I look forward to going back again but less aggressive .

[@IamLaR1]

Damn bro, that made me nervous just reading that. Glad you kept her up on two. Hopefully you videoed everything, so you can go back and enjoy all your moments. Thanks for commenting on my video (it helps a lot). Be good and be kind...La

[@Encyphix]

This coming Monday will be my 1st TD ever - at Buttonwillow. I am LESS nervous after watching this vid. Arigato. Spasibo. Sukran. Thanks!

[@IamLaR1]

Sorry I missed this comment. I hope your TD went perfectly. Please tell me how things went for you...La

[@Encyphix]

@@IamLaR1 Ha! It was awesome! I'm addicted. I was consistently running sub 3's on a stock Hayabusa with Michelin touring tires. I'm told that's not bad for a noob's first day - on a Busa. Wanna buy a '14 Gen 2? (kzbin.info/www/bejne/rYWpZ6d7g7V9eNU)

[@supervenom54]

@@IamLaR1 yes same to you men be safe out there dont want to lose other rider who's a good men

[@outsidethewirevet]

But La...that's how you learn and get better! Making mistakes and getting past them the next time. You know that... I thought you also did some good riding and kept some good lines, besides how much more practice do those other riders have over you on that track? You're riding with the big DAWGs now... ;) Loved it!!!

[@IamLaR1]

Thank you brada
