[QUOTE="scrapedup, post: 1054897, member: 10607"] Great question, Racing the SV although its a 650 puts you in the Lites class, the GSXR 600 puts you in the Heavy Weights ( liter bikes ) for me it comes down to self preservation. It's one thing to get lapped probably twice on the SV, as being lapped probably 6 or 8 times on the 600. It's also about getting past at maybe 20mph. as opposed to 50 or 60mph by the Liter bikes. That being said maybe this would be a good time to insert the disclaimer, at 62 not only do I not want to get hurt, causing someone else to be injured because I'm way to slow out there, would haunt me for the rest of my life. Also to be painfully honest the only time I'll ever stand on the podium will probably be at 9 o'clock at night with a cold one in my right hand, and the sheriff chasing me out of the paddock because I don't belong there. Have you purshased a new mount since you arrived? That being said, is it Spring yet???? Dastardly Dave. #65 [/QUOTE]
