Track day

[Skid Mark]

Hi lads,
I’m getting into classic racing. There are some track days coming up in the spring and as the race bike is a H***a ( that is pretty much the only bike that is readily available here and qualifies) I want to get one of the kawkers on the track a few times at least. I currently have a Gpz1170 and a turbo that are running pretty well. Turbo would be my choice for the track day. Question is. Without mods and work am I foolish the the bike on the track. Am I likely to incur break downs etc with a stock motor and end up with a lot of work to put right? I know some of you are racing modified bikes in race mode etc. but I get the impression you have beefed up oil lines and pumps etc.
the only mod I would plan to do is change fork seals ( as they are leaking on the breaks at the minute) and an oil change and check shims.
Any advice welcome.

I did Silverstone then Brands just race mode for the first then uprated front spring for the second should have fitted radials. Had no trouble on the straight, cornering is a different matter I was the oldest there on the oldest bike still came in the middle of all the riders that day at Brands great fun.

Thanks for the reply Young blood.
I was afraid I was at risk of trashing the engine( what ever about the bike).
I’m really showing my ignorance here, but how do you activate race mode?
