    yes... i have seen them used on track use bikes like the busa kawaski shootout? I wouldn't trust them for the long haul. But that is my opinion.

      They're meant for the drag strip. Definitely not a suitable permanent way to lower your bike for the "long haul" as Z stated.

          Drag use onley. Dont use them on the street. You have terrable handling when they are sinched down. They are to help hold the front down in hard lanches on the strip.

            +1 everybody else's comments. Strip only. Not a permanent mod, just for weekend track users.

                      I have never heard any thing good about the barnetts in gixxers. And seen a lot of pics to show bad things from them. Gixxer.com is anti barnett all around. And a lot of guys on psycobike will give first hand accounts of why they hate them. They all say to use stock plates.

                      As for kats. I have no clew. I havnt rode one in a while. They are still great bikes.
