I only did about 4 trAck days on mine. I had almost worn the muffler away and te pegs off it.
Reckon with a few bouncy bit mods, mid 40s would be easy.
Yes but what would you do on it considering the times you are doing in FX now

- AND bouncy bit mods as well

I'd say 42's would have to be on the cards

But who's going to lend him a well set up Z for a heavier set rider (according to AMCN, sumo proportions

) to thrash around the creak to see?
I have to agree that low 40's would be on the cards for the Watt-man but I'd say your pegs would get to know the track intimately in the process. The ones that came off his old Z were half missing and he's a lot faster and has a greater lean angle these days so even with the suspension set up well I think they would get a workout on the tar.
