What did you do to your Race/Track Bike today - 2014

I assume if a shop is installing a new chain and sprockets they inspect the chain guide right? lol.

I got tired of running around in 2nd gear all the time, figured I'd exercise my gearbox a little more. Top speed with -2/+5 is 270kph so not likely to hit that speed at my skill level on any track :)

There is no way yout top speed is 270 with -2+5, im going to guess closer to 200
 
Just had a look. Its 229. I dont think there is a track you wouldnt be hitting redline in 6th in ontario before the end of the straight.
 
I actually like to choose gearing so I DON'T have to "exercise my gear box".

But whatever, that's none of my business.

No kidding. Nothing worse than a tibialis cramp. LOL... (adjusting my shifter down 1/2" fixed that problem for now)

You guys are so funny! lol. Is the stock rev limiter on a 2007 R1 12,500? Didn`t think so. Am I running the stock 190/50 tires? No. hahaha. So funny. Flashed to +500 rpm over stock limiter (14,250RPM) with 190/55 tires. With -2/+5 don`t even try telling me it won`t hit redline in 6th gear.

You can run 10/80 for all I care, I was just adding to the conversation.

Yeah I am running -2/0 and it seems to be correct for that particular layout.

I would've liked to try -2/+1 but don't have a 48. I have two 51s though
 
N3WMAN said:
48 is stock. If you're running a 14/47 you're -2/-1. I brought a 49 but didn't use it as the 48 was perfect.

Well I'll be. I was -2/+1 all weekend then. So I did want to be -2/0. Not sure why I had it in my head 47 was stock. Pro racer right here folks.

Replaced my battery and diagnosed a bad reg/rec that ruined my track day on Monday. I can't believe it failed with 3500km on it.

Maybe because you dropped it.

Definitly possible but I would hope they're more durable being encased in resin. The drop was from 2ft (mounting location) onto my lift table.

Oh well, I'll work with a piece of foam under the bike from now on.
 
Installed my new R/R, adjusted some settings in my ecu, and downloaded my PCV map created by Z1.
