You guys are all on bikes with too much power.
If my memory is correct: 6th on front straight, 3 down (3rd) for corner 1, 2 up (5th) for second straightaway, 2 down (3rd) for the next set of corners, 1 down for the hairpin (2nd), 1 up and then 1 down for the chicane, 1 up before the sweeper. The two corners coming onto the front straight I can either do in 2nd by buzzing the engine hard, or let it chug away in 3rd. If there's traffic I'll do it in 2nd, if I can pick my own line I use 3rd.
This is on an FZR400, and I'm sure that anyone on a GP bike will probably be shifting even more than I am.

Learn as much about suspension on your own as you can. Work with your tire guy. Keep notes and make changes in small steps (if time permits).
I'm looking forward to running some other tracks in 2010. Spring can't come fast enough.
TMP I had my 06 R6 geared 15 46 (F -1, R +1) and it worked well. Front straight 2 up to 5th then down to 2nd for turn 1, 3rd and 4th to Turn 2 back down to 2nd. 2nd to 3rd after turn 6 then back down to 2nd after the kink before the left. Bike ran from 10K-redline Good little stock motor served me well.
