track day tool-do you think this idea will work??

[99morg99]

hi, running out of money for track days and thought of an idea to sweat my assets more, wondered what you thought-am i being a tight arse/scrooge???

I use an old 600 k2 as a track bike well set up
ohlins rear
ktec front
waveys and brembo masster cylinder
oz wheels
full system/PC111/K+N etc

and have a well set up 600srad too, will attach pics but is full track bike dyno'ed to 107 at rw.
ohlins rear
ktech front
pfm cast iron superbike front brakes and brembo m/c
akro full system
etc etc

you get the pic
so.......... my son uses second but hardly rides it due to finances (it is mine not his!), was wondering if peeps thought there would be an interest in someone using one of mine in exchange for paying for me to do track day too plus petrol for bike used. could only do weekends due to work commitments

good idea/bad idea? views and advice welcome. am aware and mulling over issues about liability insurance and a no cost way of addressing that

theres a big can of worms, in using someone elses bike that you are hiring out.... what about accidents? thats damage to the bike, and the rider, both riders fault and possibly bikes fault. ie chain snaps, rider falls off and want to sue you as he's off work injured for 6 months, and yo have no liability cover....

its one thing using a mates bike for a session or two, but personally, i wouldnt want to use someone elses bike, or have them use mine.

As above, loads of implications

sell the srad to fund your track day addiction :)

If your lad wants to do track days then offer him the bike 1st
