Yep the father over the front end the better, I can see myself sitting up but that's from standing it up in first gear and chopped the throttle to get it back down.

Well that sounds like a compliment to me, thank you. Btw, I noticed they had the seat taken off the Busa, I guess to lower the center of gravity, is that worth doing?

Yeah Tom is pretty good at getting a bike down the track. Pretty sure he could get my bike in the nines.

Johnny did that so he would not make a mess of my seat when it scared the crap out of him


... yes, the lower the center of gravity the better... thus strapping the front and slamming the rear.

3 tenths is a BUNCH of time to drop, I am not a lot better rider than you Nick, just a few inches shorter, and a bit lighter. It would be interesting to see what kind of time can be rolled out of that zx-9 though

also, I like anyone that races you and wins Nick. Its nice to hear that somene did it on something other than a Suzuki. I just love the 954's. I think they are a fantastic bike. Until very recently (since I laid my eyes on a very beautiful, and capable '06 ZX-10r) I thought they were the best all around bike
