R & D MOTORSPORTS dose FANTASTIC WORK
i waited to post and now i must tell you guys my transmission is awsum.
mark at r&d was able to referb almost every part that had wear which was`nt many.i had never split engine case`s before but if you can swap valve shims on a zx12 you can get those transmission shafts out to send to mark if yours are fucked.i replaced my timing chain and thermostat while i was at it.i also adjusted the valves and sync the throttle bodies. i guess i had about 45 hours into the whole job.r&d`s bill was around 750.00.i had a ron ayers bill of parts for around 200.00 unrelated to r&d`s work.i have been fucked to tears by stealer-ships in my life.
NOT ONE OF THOSE MOTHERFUCKERS WOULD DO THIS JOB AS GOOD AS I DID IT.a stealer-ship would charge at least 1500.00 for labor alone.so the way i look at it is i got the job done free and got payed 500.00 for doing the work.mark at r&d is a true wizard.please give him your business if your transmission is sick.

Ditto that. He is the best.
When I called FBG and asked them about some of the mods they did, they did not do half what Mark does.......
Just having a cut tranny is only half the battle........, he really is that good......., best money you will ever spend......

Found today, that even though the tranny may be great, if you have a cold track, that aint prepped for nothing......, even if you hook like mad out of the hole......,
when you hit third and it spins like hell, it aint gonna shift......, track got bad when the cold and clouds hit, and it dropped me two mph, due to wheel spin......., had to go up on some kill time, and drop quite a bit of pressure to get through the day, and then in the final, you can hear the damn thing spining 4th..., rpms going up and down......., to heck with this cold front.........,

Clutches, I do,
Suspension, just getting the hang of it.......
Works told me my shock is set up wrong.......
But, some of the clutch tune, is unloading the rear when the front sets down in second......, parts on the way from MTC to fix it.....
It was shifting in the quarters, I had the bye in the semi, and in the final, it worked as well, just lost by about 2 ft. The bike was spinning, but it did shift......., thank god......
