ZXR400 - Sid

[400y]

Finally got a pic of my 400. I had it out for a run on Saturday and was loving it but coming from racing a SV I was really missing the low down grunt out of the corners. The 400 is a real pleasure to ride but it will take a bit of getting used to after riding a Vtwin.

Yvonne ?????

57 was my very first race number........at Lunatics Turn March 1996

Aye tis me.

Hope that number is lucky for me

What gearing do you 400 guys use for Cookstown?

The characteristics are completely diff from the twin.

All help and advise is welcome Cargo

OH it's a different beast alright.....................jumping off a twin the 400 will feel like a two stroke.................all revs and gear changes.

you really do need to try and keep the revs up.

I'll look up the gearing for Cookstown and get it to you been a while since I've done Cookstown.

57 is a great number for a ZXR plenty of varieties..........

Cheers Cargo - I started riding and racing on a twin and then the 600 cam along so I've not had any experience on any other type of bike.

Looking forward to the season tho - it will be interesting I should think.
