    from my piss poor memory they ran 35's like my vfr's and the one i owned had 95's as mains, which is unlike my RVF motor as they have 108's and my VFR motor has 116/118 combo (front/back).
    www.400greybike.co.uk has a ZXR400 section, although they dont post much in there and the sites mainly there for the Viffer section im sure they could tell you.

    Sorry xjxjxj, by the time I brought the phone back to life it was already too late. I wouldn't have a clue about the jettings sorry. Its been a long time since I last kept track of it.

    mate, at pukekohe you should be permanently living above 10,000rpm on a four hundy. whats the problem ??

    ps.... funny how I did so well in that poll and all i've managed to do is get some fairings (yet to be fitted), put one crash bung on and get a race licence... andhaven't even been to watch any race meets!

    *sigh*.. maybe later this year my finances will look a little healthier!

    I've only done pukie so far so thats why I had never really looked into improving the bottom end. Even though it is crutial if you plan to race it (for the starts). Top end can be improved quite a bit as well I reckon. Have fun with it xjxjxj

    I was always horrified with the work involved with carbs. Good thing I have FI now, phew!

    no F$#$# way mate--pull ya finger out.
    Look If needs be I have access to a jumbo van--so I can probably fit 4 bikes. Dont chicken out--come down to taupo with us and have some fun.
    the more that turn up the cheaper the room will be.
    I can do the basic race prep you'll need to get on the track. Wiring etc.

    Yea my concern too--manfeild and taupo both have some slower speed corners and itll bog down trying to get up to the higher revs.
    Mind you I havent tried dropping the needles a notch yet --and up n down th street aint zactly track testing

    Ok, ok I'll be comming with you guys! No if's, but's, maybe or what ever. If I can still ride a bike and have a bike to ride on the 6th, I'll be there getting lapped by everyone and having fun. I just have to sort out my race licence this thursday night. Sure, I would really appriciate your help in going over the bike for a race prep. I don't think it needs any or many mods done to it. It is a race bike afterall.

    Ok to answer both you guys. 1) you need to join a motorcycle club
    AMCC is the auckland club--now a full memmbership is $40 a year but under 20 I think is a junior membership so its cheaper.
    AMCC will have race licence applications which you must fill out in full and send to MNZ --good news is that I cut a deal with MNZ and for $100 I got the rest of the current season and all next seasons licence for $100
    As far as setup is concerned--yep motoracer I'd be suprised if your bike isn't ready to race But I have all the rules as far as wiring sump bolts etc, so its probably worth a quick checkover.
    your riding gear will be scrutineered as well so I'd bring that allong too
    a must have is back protector -1 piece/2 piece zip together leathers boots ,gloves and a Mnz approved helmet in top notch condition.
