Getting started at CCS - Bike advice/New Racer advice

[CHIRINOM]

The 250 does sound fun, I know I will probably outgrow it eventually... but I have to get there first.  The Kaw has 70hp and the Triumph is like 55. I think the SV650 does around 80hp stock and is a probably 50lbs lighter than the Kaw... Don't look down on the Dyna either, its got 108ft/lbs max torque and pretty nimble on the corners (I keep hitting my damn pegs). Riding windy country roads and a racetrack are different animals though.

When you are talking about race prepping the bikes, what all does that entail, what sort of mods am I looking at?

Thanks guys

Right now most of us 250 riders are running under a gents agreement to keep the engines bone stock. So safety wire, belly pan, tires, and go!

A set of DOT race tires, race brake pads and jetting are recommended. You can go with springs, exhaust and controls but some of the Florida riders I have raced with have proven that they are not necessary.

But whatever you do.......dont listen to me (14 years racing experience), Bruce (dude raced with Jesus, so lots of years racing experience!), & Miguel (15 years racing experience)......

All 3 of us, with lots of experience on lots of machinery......& all 3 of us will say that the Ninja 250 class is the most fun racing we've ever had!

I don't race another bike, but if it helped Bruce go faster on his SV (& he flys on that thing!!!), it says something for making a guy who's been an Expert for longer than I've been racing suddenly drop times!
