Mmmh, getting tougher!
I guess the 16 or 17 is a cheap change to make.
But Shane/Gazza, I tend to be a bit like youselves in trying to get the max performance with the least changes.
I ran a 10.4 last season right at the end with stock gearing, std pipes, and std tyre pressure and no burn out. I had the back lowered 50mm. I've now got the TiForce fitted, and have just chewed out the airbox, so I'd like to see how far I can go with that. I must admit, I prefer taller gearing for the road and track as I can circulate Wanaroo quite happily and reasonably fast using 3rd and 4th right now. I'm certainly not the slowest in my group! (Not the fastest either but that's me not the bike). Soooo, std front and a new chain may be the order of the day. Just need to get a chain breaker now. <i></i>
