I have first generation SV's that were geared "Stock" 15/45

For Road America last year I ran 16/44

Just over the top of the hill before the start/finish line I'm shifting into 6th gear.

Its nice to be able to carry 5th over the crest of the hill and shift into top gear.

Or smart enough, unlike myself to not tell his opponents what gearing he's running. I know how racers think, therefore I am :-X

Raced my first 2 years on a GSXR600 with the stock suspension, gears and chain. That's no lie. Right, Dawn?

Yep!

The only reason why Kevin's SV has an aftermarket shock on it is because it came with it when he bought it. He was going to ride with a spring that was too heavy for him, but fortunately we had one that was too light for Paul so the swap was made.

And why is it the fast guys like Lee need to ask gearing or tuning questions? You're a fast kid Lee and I know you're worried because it's your first year as an expert but don't worry you'll do fine. (Between us ;), try not to embarrass Junge this season!)

I'm sure Mr. Davis is sooooo worried, Crazy Bastard was passing almost all the Experts last year as an AM ::).

Try to keep the Stoppies to a minimum in traffic going into turn 1 OK?

It's all in fun, but don't worry about what game I'll bring.
'Cause it'll probably be the same game that got me around a white Beull last year with 247 on the side at Gingerman. ;D
I know who you are.

Oops, don't be hatin'

Yours truly,
Rookie!

Just make sure they're clean/safe passes....

We don't need any Rossi/Gibernau replays. Most of us have to go to work on Monday.
