CALLING GSXRboy...

you say you run a 16-42, and run 9.5's at 146-147..is this correct? my question is, are you on the rev limiter through the traps, or very close to it (assuming your still in 4th gear)? did you ever run a 16-41, and how much of a difference did it help. you now run the mcr2 which, i think, is slightly taller that the mcr or stock tire..did you run 16-42 before you went to the mcr2? did you get all those questions? how about a few more?!~

16/42 works great for the stock motor.

He should be just under red-line.

Also, I believe he's going a lot faster then 9.50's now?!!

I've never tried the 16/41 but I did try 16/40 which wasn't to bad but for a "stock" bike the 16/42 is the ticket. (Trust Me) Anyhow you should be just below redline going through the traps with that combo. For the tire question I never ran the stock tire on my bike except to drive it home from the dealership. I've been using the MCR/2 for some time and love it. Just bought my 3rd one today!

Frank - Hopefully in Indy I can lay down a 30 or 40! Just need to get the bike tuned in Wednesday at the track. If I just drop about 30-40lbs I could most likely go 20's :-)
