Did a bit of pit crewing on the North on Friday Morning of race day putting new tank on and fueling. Chris is a great guy and the bike is awesome believe the engine came from Aus or New Zealand I think met the guy who,s engine it was awesome

Yep its a stock primary and a road 5 speed gearbox with a high first gear, Chris does the Cregg on all his bikes in first for a quick exit.

superb ... god knows what revs he's pulling when he cogs down ... but a lot ...

in the second clip of the triple .... the gearbox must be very close ratio bunging it down 4 gears into the Creg and that's not first he's in when he comes around the corner so must be a P&M six speed ... but in the picture at the beginning looks to be a stock primary and not the belt drive ... so may be a P&M 6 speed can be used with a stock primary ??? anyone know the answer?
