Assuming you mean for the track and not the road it ought to be ok but watch out for the sump plug grounding.

Only problem I had when I slammed mine was the tire hitting the undertail. Never had a problem with fuel pump. You could see where it barely touched the swingarm.

+1 on the pan. I put it off til I busted my pan, if your going to slam it, it would be a very wise decision!

You've probably have already checked or had it in mind, but I can't go without saying. Once you get your bike slamed where you would like it, measure the rest of the forks suspension travel then measure the lowest point under the pan. That will give you an Idea of what you need to do to save the pan. Good luck!

If your just going to ride it on the track that's all good, but if you ride on the street there are a lot more factors than fork travel. Potholes, rough roads, RAILROAD tracks (they are bad here). Good luck bro!
