TRMN8TR Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'm coming Saturday and bringing a track newb with me. Since Jinu can't make it I had to find a new 675 buddy to bring with me. Also I'll be helping coach novice Saturday, I guess a lot of the regulars aren't gonna make it so Todd needs help. Racing the 600 sprints and the 20, possibly the 750 if all you guys are doing it just so I can hang with the cool kids. Anyone up for some food at Seans or whatever it's called? I'm in.

ama146 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 If the above is true, this is the way mine sits right now: 7mm of additional fork showing over the triple (means front end should be sitting 3mm higher than stock). 10mm of ride height added to rear shock (means rear of bike should be sitting 10mm higher than stock). So basically I'v added 7mm of ass end height over what was the stock geometry. I hope this is close. 7mm of fork tube showing above the triple means you LOWERED the front 7mm, not raised it.

TRMN8TR Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 (edited) 7mm of fork tube showing above the triple means you LOWERED the front 7mm, not raised it. But because of the internals he has the forks are now 10mm longer than stock, so he is still up 3mm higher overall.

nk140 Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 The GP Suspension 25mm cartridges increased my front fork length by 12mm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

r1crusher Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 In for whatever...just finished signing up for Sat. and the 20 on Sun. Might also run the 750 for giggles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
APCh8r Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 HAHA I kinda do wonder how many Ron can run through this season. I mean he is pretty on par with Biaggi, or I think he is?you know you are only suppose to charge it every three months if you aren't using it.

RHill Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 So far I think I'm the only one who was considering the 40 min? This is disappointing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue03636 Posted July 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'm up in the air on the 40 since Ron isn't running it, well that and I'm way out of shape. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RHill Posted July 26, 2013 Report Share Posted July 26, 2013 I'm a shape....round.I was exhausted after the 20 min, but at the same time my second fastest lap was the last one. It probably isn't a great idea, but I was planning on running it. I'm going to bring my wheel chock, because I guarantee I wont have the energy to put the bike on a rear stand after 40 minutes straight track time.

I'm going to bring my wheel chock, because I guarantee I wont have the energy to put the bike on a rear stand after 40 minutes straight track time.Thats how I always am in the 20. My fastest laps are usually towards the end. I think because I know I've rode well enough to push it harder and I do. Then usually have a few slides in 12/13/front straight on the front or rear and am like oh maybe I shouldn't push quite that hard. I mean I've seen 1-2 second differences lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
