If you’re a fan of track days but you’re short on cash, what do you do? Is a budget track challenge really possible? That’s what Zack Courts and Ari Henning try to answer.

The guys do a track day on $1,000 motorcycles.

They end up with a 2009 Kawasaki Versys 650 and a 2015 Honda CBR300R and then head to the track.

Despite having some seriously questionable machines, they had a good day at the track and managed to pass the safety inspection, surprisingly.

The guys got out there and made it happen, and if nothing else, it’s a lot of fun to watch. It’s also a reminder that you don’t need to spend tens of thousands of dollars on a track bike.
