I did 1.49s on mine. As it rolled off the showroom floor.

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.

Doing a few things to her today new rocker cover gasket, plugs ngk iridium, injector seals while it's off and clean up the pc wiring whoever did it made a mess (even though it's only a couple of wires). Also while I was at it did valve clearances and change coolant. Valves were spot on so I'm pretty happy with it

Yes but what would you do on it considering the times you are doing in FX now ;) - AND bouncy bit mods as well :shock: :kuda: 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 :shock: :lol: ) to thrash around the creak to see? dontknow.gif

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.

Totally agree mine drags like a bitch. I've ordered rearsets which should show up soon. But still trying to find some zx6 forks and possibly a new shock with a bit more adjustability

The first photo was at the top of lukey heights straightening up for the turn and the second shot was the little straight out of turn 5 before the sweeper
