Hey Peanut is there any more lean you think you could get out of your bike by further mods?
You look damn good, I must say.....

Actually he's Czech and I did end up beating him in that race. He crashed trying to keep up when I passed him on the last turn of the last lap. It's on youtube.

If the rearsets were to be raised even higher than racing rearsets, would more lean angle be available, or would we run out of tire thread before being able to use it?

Nope. I'm really short so I already have the rearsets all the way up and I still come off of them sometimes.

What about raising the rear of the bike up an inch?
I know it effects the handling, but maybe you can gain some lean angle.

That's already done. Check out the other two pictures I posted with that one. I do lean more. This pic doesn't represent my limit. It's just a good shot.

Thanks Richard. How have you been? You missed a great race at Chuckwalla in November. A few of us from Colorado went down for a 30+bike grid.

Trying to recover from a torn arm muscle from the Harley race at Indy last August. Almost back to 100% and planning on some Willow Springs racing next year, along with the XR1200 races. Maybe I'll see you guys again next summer.

When you have "chi" you feel the track so you don't need to look.

Nice! Mid 90s? The XR1200 is probably not much better. The thing tries to tie itself into a knot whenever you change direction. And, I just can't get over how tall and heavy it is. But still a lot of fun.

1984. Zero suspension, zero brakes, no top end but exciting in a dangerous way. If you were used to Jap bikes it was like riding around pulling an anchor. I got a fifth at Daytona, 11th overall for the year.

This is before another endurance race at Daytona, Jerry Wood (Woodcraft) was my co-rider on the FZ750. I had Freddy Spencer's number for good luck. Jerry crashed in the chicane and I rode the last 3 hours by myself for a 6 place finish.

I was a fence monkey back then, watching guys like you race! My only cool story is that I used to race with Kocinski at Willow Springs. He gave me his **** tires for my TZ250. We used to sleep on some guy's floor at the Air Force base because we were too broke for motels. Hell, I couldn't even afford a set of new tires.

Public road and semi-blind corner. Not big on gettin brained by oncoming traffic. I do my best to keep it between the lines anyway, just like they taught me in preschool.
