If/when you get it Mick, pass it my way; I'd be interested in having that program.

No worries, I had to use that to calculate a speed I was once doing, as the standard speedo in the LJs only go to 160km/h. With that one I posted if you know all the gearbox/diff ratios then you can work out what speed you are doing at 'x' revs.

Just had a look at the gear calc and saw this link on the "physics of racing" http://phors.locost7.info/
Its some of the best/accurate material Ive seen written on the net, I didnt read all of it, but the bits i did read (despite being in imperial) were excellent.

There's also a bit there on weight transfer(no reference to springs Im sorry) that's very good.....
