You're at exactly where you weight, time wise/mph should be. Seat time, try and get mid 1.6's or better. Make sure you're WOT before you hit the tree. 60 foot is everything. Get an R1 throttle tube, that will help you go WOT quicker as well.

Yeah, it's ALL the rider. I've built my Busa for tracks/canyons, and still, when I take it to the track, I still here people asking why did I bring that fat bike to the track. *sigh* No mind, I'll show them. Btw, known Dave for years. He's a good guy. His real point is that you don't need...

This may be coming in too late, but... 40 psi rear tire fresh oil change (Mobil1 ftw!) clean chain And lastly, make SURE they print out an Air/Fuel ratio, then post that map on here. Should be about 13.2/1 all the way across.

It is rare to find a parts department that really knows what they're doing, due to 1) they're being paid peanuts so anyone can go in there and train how to look up parts, that's about it. And 2) as stated above, there is a tremendous variety of bikes out there. For difficult parts, I understand...

Will not ride without ALL my gear, helmet, boots, leathers, and gloves. Even if I could ride w/out a helmet, I wouldn't. Ever had a fly hit your visor? Feels like someone hit you in the face w/ a BB gun. No wonder those Harley guys always look so pissed off.

A coin toss between the 03Gsxr1, 04 R1 and 04CBR1000. Or an RC-51 if I went twin.

One word. Ebay.

Here are a couple of tips that I've learned when I first started drag racing; (hopefully, you're not repeating the same mistakes) Make sure that after you launch, you're actually 'flooring' it the entire way. Discovered later what I thought was full throttle was, like, 3/4. So hit the throttle...

Disclaimer -> This is NOT true!! (wink, wink)   About a year ago, I was at the local street races. Now, my bro and I have been street racing a 5.0 for about 11 years now, so where very tuned to the scene. I'm on Blue (replaced now w/ a silver one), a couple of guys roll up in Supras...

Man you guys have some good advice. I love racing my Busa, suprises a lot of people when i'm at a track day ("...holy crap! A Busa?! What is that doing here?) Get your suspension set up to your weight at a nearby race shop. Get good tires, I personally love the 208GPa's. Most of the time...

I noted that reading the article about Keith Dennis, he was consistant low to mid 1.7's for the 60 foot, on a stock suspension bike. Given, of course, he's Keith Dennis. But that gives at least a goal to get to or come close. My best was a 1.81 60 ft, 6.64 @ 114.5. I agree that before you do...

A buddy and mine, after a LOT of research, both chose the HMF high mounts. There are, of course, pros and cons... Pros: Looks fantastic, I love the way it looks and I've always liked the high mounts. Mandrel bent x pipe that makes great torque Dual stepped header pipes. Stepped twice in each...
