I'd be more afraid of what happens to the shift forks/ drum after a weekend of track days. A careful driver would never hurt them, but KWS's rider last year (Ben Thompson) could smash a set of shift forks to pieces in an afternoon of practice and qualifying. Every missed shift or careless down shift wears on the pads on the forks, and every over zealous shift in either direction wears the drum lugs off the forks, and beats the life out of the drums...
