depends entirely on which class you are racing it in and the regulations that govern it.

Many interpretations exist for minitwin class, do you have a club in mind, can you get their regs?

Steve Jordon Motorcycles know Minitwins Backwards and support Bemsee at race meeting, as well as race ect

or of course there is JHS Racing as well

Here is the BEMSEE regs
http://www.bemsee.net/info-centre/ca...ss-regulations

The club are very strict and regularly scrutinized and they have to have a dyno report for the bike.

Through two seasons of racing minitwins with some success at the front and now our third season starting, these would be our choices of equipment:
1. Pirellis (Diablos) if you can afford them
2. Choose the right one according to weight but KTech feature among the best
3. Dont need a steering damper, the sv is a stable enough platform set up correctly
4. Hindle full system: have tried others but they are no better powerwise but the hindle can be repaired easily (see MHP for alternatives)
5. Ohlins: but all suspension is useless without a decent suspension set up as you know
6. Cant use a quick shifter its illegal.



Give me a PM if you want I will share more if you wish.

Best of luck
