This post is getting a little old and I didn't read everything, none of you know me etc. but I would like to add my 2 cents worth..

first I started racing before many of todays racers were born...
second I just may have more hours of endurance roadracing motorcycles then many of todays riders have laps...I have been in 2,4,6,8,12, and 24hr races..

The 250's should be allowed to race and scored in their own class..
as are the bigger bikes scored in their own classes..

stright a way speeds of the little bikes are slow..IE. make passing very easy for faster bikes.. and in most corners they can hold their own...

I have raced my Ninjette down at Arroyo Seco and so far I have the only 250 their in lightweight I am up against sv650's other classes I race in I am against everything else that races their. I get lapped by almost all the bikes in most of the races.. NO PROBLEM SO FAR..

I can hardly wait to race with you guys in your 250 class this May..
