Once you make a couple passes and get the bugs outta your system,grab your throttle and have your elbow pointed up(around 45 degrees). So when you go for WOT your elbow will pointed level or down. Just remember....CLUTCH MANAGEMENT!!!!!!! I hope I disgribbed this so you understand it. Sit on your bike before you even go to the track and see if you get it. Just be comfortable...it's the most important thing. If you want to call me feel free (203)732-0103.

I'm from Easley,SC and it's coming up at the top of 1st and staying up throught 2nd. If I leave straight, I can hold the throttle open and get a good run but If I drift either left or right I end up "short shifting" to get it back down. Not really a fast wheelie, only when I get a little too aggressive with the throttle and slip the clutch too long.Now i have a question when you say getting into to big a wheelie is it coming up slow or fast

I went to the track for the first time ever Fri. nite. Stalled the bike first time the tree dropped, oops. Ran quite a few times, best time was 7.409@108. Got some pointers from Ludicrous Speed (board member) who said I wasn't launching it hard enough.(I was nervous!) My son has lost my time slips, so I don't know what my 60' was. I need a strap, a Shinko and some more practice, but damn it was fun.

Well things didn't work out like I was hoping. My clutch gave up on me after the first pass. I guess I'll have to go for the 6.0 next weekend.

is your track always packed or not too many people run there?

There'll be quite a few people, but you can get a lot of runs in. I got there about 9:30, still got in 10 or 12 runs. Just 1/8 mile, but we have fun.
Well, I DID it!!!! Sunday, we had our first race. I was able to get the bike down to 6.411. It has NO mods except for being stretched 4". I think I can launch it harder and maybe get it down some more, but I am very happy with the way it ran. I really couldnt beleive it. I did hit the rev limiter a couple of times though. I guess I need a shift light!!! I dont really want an air shifter on this one. It is too much fun the way it is. I am running the 1/8mile. Anyone have any suggestions???
