    I got a new shock for the race bike. Some paint for the race bike. And a couple track days at VIR for the street bike to not feel left out.

    I actually opted for electrical tape

    haha well I ran -1/+2 last year and it was ok, but I was bouncing between 2nd and 3rd gear A LOT more than I wanted to be. After working 1 on 1 with some certain fast guys, they suggested that by going to a 49T or 50T rear I could just run 3rd gear, eliminating half the shift points. Sounded like a great idea.
