I am new to this and just a question for the future. What class would a 1999 CBR 900 RR run in? No motor mods, just exhaust, stage one jets in the carbs, brake rotors (front-to accomidate the 17inch front wheel conversion). Thought I would ask some experienced riders here. If I read it right, it would be Unlimited Supersport for amateur/expert. Thanks a lot.

The only two that I can think of is Unlimited SS and Unlimited GP. I think 900cc is too big for the Heavyweight class...

For a starter race bike, it wouldn't be a great choice.

It won't equate to faster lap times, as it will be a handful for even and expert racer.

And let's talk about a tire bill, the thing that will cost as much as a bike, but you end up with a pile of rubber.

I noticed that you're looking at a carb kit, but you're not talking about an aftermarket rear shock or fork work, let alone having correct rate springs installed.

That will really make the difference.

Do you have the bike yet? Or is it all just an idea?

Carb kit...yes, looks like from your above post you've got a "stage 1" jet kit. Same difference.

Ok, so you've got the bike, so it's paid for.

Have you done any suspension work?
