Six speed gearbox.
Slipper clutch, not a pipe and slipper's.
And some of them big fat headers.
I want, I want, I want, everything all the others have got.
It's a good start having a hole bike already this year but I need all the bits, I do. I can't possibly challenge for the top without everything. Can I ?
Before someone comes on saying you don't need everything you can do it with skill. Bol***x I haven't got the skill to do it that way, I need all the bits like the others.
What's a slipper clutch worth to a lap time lads?
Or a six speed box?
I don't think the header make much difference but they make the bike look meaner and intimidate anyone with a skinny pipe. :D

**** all.

About 1 second slower than a 5 speed.
A couple of questions for you (I've answered them too)...
Q. How much faster were you at Cadwell in October, compared to March?
A. March = 1:56.2
October = 1:51.7
Q. What did you fit to the bike in between???
A. **** all ;)
Just keep riding the bike Eric, tracktime and experience will make you faster than slippers and a crutch.

Absolutely agree with that 100%.................
Geoff won last year with no slipper and 5 speed.....i jumped on the bike for the first time in a race and got pole and 2 second places....
No slipper.. ( unless u call a slipping clutch a slipper lol )
and a 5 speed box................!
they will make no difference to your times or speed dude....!..unless you have reached your absolute max then perhaps start looking for additional bling to help.?.....and i know you got plenty more in ya yet.....
