Flying noob here, have no idea what I'm doing but I've always heard that domestic flying is expensive

I'm aware that it's very risky, but I would like to take a laptop with me during multi day trips.

Has anyone done it before?

Have currently got a protaper 7/8 SE Carmichael bars but unfortunately got bent a fair bit on the left side. Wondering if there's any other ones people would recommend. I'm doing more high speed stuff on gravel, less single track type stuff atm

Looking at getting just a grounds pass for the 3 days as the grandstand tickets are pricy for me atm, but worried what the view will be like on the ground around the track

Looking online it's hard to find one and being able to tell if it's good quality or cheap materials is difficult as well. I'm in AUS

On a drz400e (higher than the drz400s) and I'm having trouble with slow sharp turns but only on the left side.

Slow sharp right hand turns from starting off with almost lock on handle bars is smooth, can lean the bike a tad, put my tippy toes down and generally feel balanced. This doesn't happen in the situation for left hand turns I think because my left leg is my off leg and it feels very awkward to manage the bike and maintain balance. I have already dropped it twice when starting off on the left side, none on the right.

This is my second bike, with the first being a drz250 which I've had for about 10 years. It's much shorter and didn't have any issues like this with it.

Anyone have an tips or drills I could do to get better?

What are the main differences between them and which one should I get?

The safari is cheaper by a fair bit than the acerbis where I am. Planning on doing long day trips and overnighters. I would still like the narrow feel of the stock tank, how much wider are they? How do they affect the handling of the bike?
