Tell me why you are geting the pipe and other stuff?
I watched u run a totaly stock bike and place.  get wood over tons of people that had mods to their bikes.  I ran in dannys hip pocket and u were leading him for a while. he 's got all that stuff done to his bike.  U unlike me have natural skill. U ran a 23s and 22 on a completly stock bike and that was your first time or second time at summit!!!    I'm slow so I need all that other crap.  Yesterday I askedd danny to change my gearing to 520 so I could see if I could get better drive out of the corner he said don't worry about it it wwill not help ya. My jaw droped but anyway..... For real u have got natual talent.

Hey Smoke--
Thanks for pimping my first time at Summit so nicely!  Well done!! ;D ;D  Seriously though, I'm hoping to drop the times even further through some suspension work and maybe exhaust if I can get some funding.  Not to mention that my tires could benefit from the proper setup.  My biggest gain will be getting more laps in at these tracks on the right coast-- heck, I think I only put in maybe ~ 60 laps total so I'm looking forward to the FUSA practice day to start closing in on some competitive times.  Thanks again brother and Kim and I will see you guys in a few!!

Looking at the Arrow Exhaust web site they have a full system that is for "a tuned bike with a race radiator" ???  Anyone know what that means?  Lonewrench... do you know?

"Race Radiator" might allow for more room for an easier curve of the head pipes...clearance issues?

If you use an Arrow pipe you have to get a different overflow bottle as it will melt with that pipe. Otherwise it fits fine.

We have 7 600RRs with the Arrow competition (HRC) systems and use the stock overflow bottles without any issues.

Rob, it might be worth a look.

If 4&6 is saying it is so, it certainly should be worth looking at.  That's free info.

Few places can show AMA National wins...or lap records...as consistently as they do.

That is exactly what I did. When I saw the 4&6 post I went back and looked at the bikes since we have the bodywork off preparing for a race this weekend. None of the coolant bottles showed any signs of melting or fatigue of any kind that I can tell, they all look new. Just our experience.
