Larry Pegram set a track record at BeaveRun. . .

55.8 Shocked

I run a 1:10 - 1:07 or 1:08 and that's probably an 8 or 9/10's pace (gotta leave the 1/10 to try and stay upright)

The Expert wera riders are hovering around a minute flat, for perspective.

55.8 is make the beast with two backsing fast!

On the 9 9 9?

Or you meant me. . .  that'd be on a 675

Who can tell me why the 1981/2 CB900C had a 2-speed final drive?

They used an engine with l/h power output in a r/h shaft chassis.

They used a jackshaft to cross over and a 2 speed unit was cheap to do.

It's really just an overdrive, I doubt many people split shifted.

So it was just a "for the hell of it" move my Honda?  I ran across one on CL and I  got curious about the 2-speed final.

I think it was probably cheaper to build a 2 speed and add it than to re-gear the transmissions

Left over pizza...

GP on the tele...

If the announcers didn't sound like they were calling NASCAR, things would be alright.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

Best of SBK or WSBK on Tuesdays, on Speed ...
