Believe it or not, I was actually competing. The pic was during one of the test runs later on, after I was out. I had my dial-in at 12.6, but ran a 12.5. The guy I raced had a .001 reaction and was .02 off his dial-in. Hard to beat that...
Haha you bet it would. Would just cause my finances to be rather... taut. But hey, you only get one shot at this life, right? Oh and how I crave that horsepower... ;]
Yeah, I think making smaller changes is probably the way to go, especially if I'm not keeping it for long. My dad has a...
Ahh, you make it sound so easy...
Honestly, what I might look to do is try and swap the 6R next year for something a lot more beefy, like a ZX10. I rode one of those a few weeks ago, and what can I say, I love to go FAST.
What good does the FZ6 cams do? I think I read that we normally get 65 or so whp? 80 is definitely great, I might have to take you up on that at some point...
Well, as said in my last thread, I was hoping to hit 110MPH, per a bet against my dad and... unfortunately got close, but no cigar. 107.77 was my fastest run.
Below is a pic of my quickest run. Kind of a shitty reaction, but I was really happy I got under 2 seconds at 60 feet. Some of the guys...
I don't think you need to lower the back from what I have seen.
Does anyone who has done this know the torque that the fork caps are supposed to be at? I thought I saw 17 ft lbs somewhere on Google, but I'm not sure.
You hope? Haha, I do not have a tbr, although it would definitely help. I actually plan to go through some of that list and see what I can do.
And a quickshifter on a fizzer? I think that's a bit much, this bike really isn't meant for drag races IMO. I'd rather get an airshifter, but only when...
Ah, I thought Marthy was saying to keep the idea of lowering the pressure in the rear tire. Got it, wasn't sure if it would help or not. I've read it had, that's why.
Before I posted I did a quick search and watched the vids; nice job! I've kind of done some "testing" on a flat road near home...
What would you say to bleed the PSI to in the rear? Good idea on bringing a gas can, didn't think of that!
I will definitely let you guys know how it goes. I'm hoping that it won't rain and I'll be able to go Wednesday. If not, I'll have to wait until Saturday.
In case you guys are...
Hey guys! I'm heading to the strip soon, wondering if you guys had any tips for me? Doesn't seem like you talk about it very much, but hey, who knows.
Here's the plan so far:
-Increase suspension
-Lower pressure in rear tire
-Remove the gigantic mirrors
Any ideas on if lowering the front...
