RE: Can I just say...

I can speak up here a little bit, if its the guy i'm thinking of he is an o.k. rider but not great, Bob can definately out ride him by a lot. I'm sure that had a little to do with it. I also know Bob's bike was geared, wella couple diff times, so i am sure with experience on his side and he was prolly -1 +2 he had a good edge outa the gate. I'm sure Bob can chime in and correct me though. From a general perspective i think the 54 prolly should pull a zx10 to 100mph or so, even though we are out powered. I have no probs jumping out on newer liter bikes, they are so hard to keep down, mine i can roll in and hammer it much sooner.

ya you got it.. flyboy ya he couldn't launch that zx10.. when i had my 600rr and he had his r6 he could beat me but i practiced my launchs and took r1's zx10's.. at the start.. and stayed in front as long as taht motor would let me .. also i had it -1 +2 when i first put it back together.. and after i ate of my rear sprocket i bought a new setup.. -1 +5
