Thanks for that its very useful. I did find something similar but not as well written and set out. Good old Shazaam! One think I noticed that was a little strange and has got me thinking is he has listed a 996r as having a 35 tooth rear sprocket as standard. Mines a 36 which I presumed was standard?

I had my track fairing kit on last week and had plenty of clearence!

Do you have a hugger fitted and does tyre run close to it ? if it does then your adjuster is in the wrong position !!!

No there is plenty of clearance between tyre and hugger. The adjuster is in the right position working in the right range but just not far enough in that range to get the wheel far enough back when the chains at correct tension. In my tinkering I have had the eccentric far enough round that it works in the other half of its range. ie it then means you have to turn the adjuster clockwise instead of anticlockwise to tighten chain. Its in that wrong position that ride height is massively reduced and tyre touches hugger.

I'm still unsure why Shazaam has rear sprocket listed as 35 teeth when as far as I can see everone else has it at 36 teeth. Of course if it should be 35 and not 36 that will account for a proportion of the shortened wheelbase.

Is your fairing one of Barrys? Am happy with what he sent me and I know theres nothing wrong with it and would recommend his stuff to anyone. It wasnt a case of his fairing didnt fit but more a case of my bike didnt fit his fairing. Its exactly the same stuff as everyone elses but I'm the only one whos had trouble because of my too short wheelbase.
