    Roebling Road. First, I looked and didnt see a previous thread. Second, 2009 zx6r somewhere around 16-18's. Anyone have a clue what gearing I need for those types of lap times? Please and thank you.

    whitey21 umm...yeah.

    It has been so long since I have been to Roebling I don't really remember what I use to run, but I would try to do -1F/-1R or -2R to start with. I would just have the stock front ready just in case.

    On my GSXR 750, I use a 3.00 ratio. Not sure what is stock on your bike so I can't say to go down or up on front and rear sprockets.
    Additionally, asking what gear ratio will make you run a certain lap time is not really an accurate question. Roebling has a fairly long front strech. As long as you are grabbing 6th gear around the start/finish line, you should be geared correctly to top out at the brake markers going into turn 1.
    Good luck and see you there.

    I have been there before but never on this bike. Not a lot of people run the kawi's so it is a little harder to get it close before I get there. I need to get some spare gearing.

    Stock street gearing is good starting point for Roebling. When you learn the track, you can adjust it.
