"the bike you are most comfortable on is the one you will be fastest on. Some bikes just dont ergonomically fit some people. "
thats  . any bike one purchases will need custom clip on handle bars, suspension adjustments, and adjustable rear sets before getting on the track expecting to be fast.
I suggest VORTEX brand triple-tree and clip-ons for custom front fit, and VORTEX rearsets for footpeg adjustments. That brand is a premium cost but premium product.
Suspension I suggest computrack GNS gold valve service and rear shock job. Its'll set you back around $900 depending on which bike, but well worth it.

Again, you are seriously changing the ergonomics. Some people dont want or dont need to and most, dont have the $$$$. We all know racers have their bikes built to suit them and their riding style. Bottom line, one mans trash is anothers treasure.

2 questions
1. Does anyone know if the oil plug was relocated?
2. Was browsing on ebay and seen a TRE for flies removed. Supposed to have an effect on ignition timing in 1-4. Does anyone have any info or testing for results on this?
I'm not asking for any hazing.......just know that the original TRE was to open flies which we all just removed but this one is like I said to change timing in gears 1-4. Just relaying info and asking a question.
