After one trackday last year, I bought an SV specifically for the track this year. Due to the longest fork rebuild in history, I've had my Monster at the track 5 times so far. Two of those were riding classes. It will do amazing things for your riding and confidence. It's also made me slow down in the canyons as I can now get my speed addiction fixed at the track.

Also, be careful if you're on a 695. The sidestand and pipes hit the ground pretty quick. If you have big feet like me, you really need to put your inside foot really high on the peg to keep your toes from dragging. I wore out a set of toe sliders in one day.
