Gearing for a 6 speed monster?

I ran 5 speed this year, but hope to have 6 speed next, can any of you 6 speed fellas give me the low down on the ratios you ran?

I have notes for Brands (Andy) and Cadwell (Dom) Tim.
Have also done a trackday since at Oulton Pk (Andy)

Whatever we did for Cadwell, Dom only used 5 gears anyway!

Will have a dig into the files for you, but I think that Andy is a tad heavier than you?

You might not notice any difference for the overall gearing mate.
Brad's gearing table ...
http://www.moto-one.com.au/performance/ducgearing.html
shows that there is only a very small difference in the top gear ratio.
In my experience you wont notice that difference, but will notice the better spacing of ratios.

Providing the rear sprocket is substantially bigger than the front, you'll be fine ;)

If you could let me know, it would be much appreciated.

Mind you if Dom only used 5 gears at Cadwell, I'm not sure I want that gearing!!!! ;)
