Ok and back on subject.....
The china made wets are not much to write home about ... infact on a dry day they slip round more then the china made slicks...
Most of the people I have been racing with that have tryed both PMT and Sava slick tyres are more then happy to run a Sava in the wet over a PMT and yes I can talk on this subject because I have run both on my duke.
Never seen a PMT wet on the track and as far as I'm awear noones bought them into the country.
I have seen Sava wets in action twice and was very impressed being the rider was over half a lap ahead of the rest of the field.
Sava wets are so good that a PMT tyre importer got a set for his son to ride on what kinda volume dose that speak??

to buy a set of pmt wets from midsouth is going to cost you $440 plus shipping and i am sure sava wets are cheaper than that by $100?
I have race on sava wets and they are Goood, you can get your footpegs scrapping and they have never let go.
It is really simple if you want to win in the wet run sava as pmt's it's all slip sliding away.

Hi all

Go the Savas !!!!! ( i had to say something !!! )

Max
The ZPF's radiator is about half the size of a B1 radiator, so pretty risky.

Cheers Greg

LOL....you wouldn't want to be smoking whilst using the petrol powered microphone...

I think Greg maybe right....the ZPF does get a little toastie....

Hey Greg, we should invent a super duper water injection, spray thingy, water cooling device.....

So this would say to me that the ZPF indoor would be as effcianive as a petrol powered mic without gas.....??

We have a basic computer style fan battery fan adaption in mind that'll hopefully sort it out. Just need to make a wee temperature sensing circuit to run it... little (read light weight) batteries won't run for long, so no point running it when it doesn't need to be.

Having said that though, could a ZPF realistically be ridden with that low a gearing (low enough for such a short track)?
