Compete at the Pit Stop Challenge!
GEICO Motorcycle AMA Pro Road Racing is proud to sponsor the Pit Stop Challenge, a fast paced simulation of a Daytona 200 pit stop where you race against the clock to compete for great prizes, including an exclusive all expenses paid VIP trip to the 2013 Daytona 200. The way it works is simple – once the clock starts, swap out the rear tire as fast as you can and get back across the pit wall. We’ve set it up so that anyone can compete, setting you up with a power wrench and taking some of the mess out of the process. There are other great prizes up for grabs like Pit Bull Moto Stands, $100 gas cards, and much more, so make sure you sign up to compete. If you’re lucky, you might even catch AMA Pro Road Racer Tyler O’Hara take on one of the instructors from the Yamaha Champions Rider School.

So, what's your interest in these? Get a buck every time someone uses the code?

If so, I'd use it to get you that. Seems like there's something going on here though.

Triumph, BMW, Ducati, etc. have all been at the MN show both last year and this year. This years show was good, though they didn't have the new D675 there. They said the new Daytona will make its first appearance at the NY Show.

I'll be at the NY show and will snap some pics of the Daytona. Not that my photography skills will make it look better, but I'll try to capture something better than Triumph's horrid studio shots.

I'm eager to see what it looks like in person. My guess is that it will look good but still not as good as the old one. I'm also curious if the ergos are discernably different.
