I did an endurance race in the rain once. On an FZR400 I was able to pass quite a few GSXR750s and similar big bikes that simply couldn't get any power down. After my friend came in from the first shift he warned me not to exit corners above 7000 rpm, which is odd because standard procedure with the FZR400 was to always keep the revs between 10-14 thou. But the first time I tried coming out of a corner at 8000 rpm showed me in quite dramatic fashion that 7000 was the right number! -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
