I thought it would be a good question to ask, but didnt expect quite so much activity in the space of one afternoon
I've always wondered what a decent shock would do for the ss chassis, but also always thought that the monster(851) chassis would always be better.
These results show (I think) that good setup makes the best of ANY chassis.

The other interesting thing I think I've seen (thanks to mutters xlnt pix) is that the front runners all have twin discs ...

Oh and yes TP, I have always been interested in racing in DD !
It's just that I am running 2 other race bikes, and because they are old clunkers, take a lot more spannering than these 'swap the bodywork and race them' modern things :P

Anyone want to offer me a px on my FE

Twin disk's-not all the front runners mate-the JHP bike-Dave Reilly-was running a single disk since John decided it 'wouldn't pull the skin of a rice pudding so why carry the extra weight'
