Nice riding man! Congrats on the pass!

Good job. Being in the 10.0's can be frustrating, I know I'm there now with my ZX14, lol.

Cheat?

How can anyone call any pass cheating. Unless you are running in a particular class and have a bigger motor than is legal, or some other mod there's no cheating.

And if you stop bogging the motor you should be able to run a couple of tenths faster. Better riding isn't cheating either.

My best on my old 1975 Kawasaki Z-1 with a turbo kit was 9.52 @ 157
Some people used to say that a turbo or nitrous was cheating. Bullshit!
Fast is fast.

Where is the cheating>??? I was waiting for you to stage with the back tire or something...

 

[Chrome98Cobra]

Nice man. I cant wait to get mine down the 1320!

lol the cheating thing is more of a joke, maybe my buddy will chime in if he catches it ha ha. They all have mustangs so its a car vs bike thing

And about the bog....i used to slip the hell outta the clutch so she wouldn't bog, but i'm cutting better 60's letting it pull through first and bog down a bit, best 60 was that pass at 1.74. It's hard not to bog with such a slight gearing change....-1 in front +2 in back would help with that a lot but then the front end gets light so easy.

here is the view from my buddys bike, a Triumph Daytona 675. Kinda funny to see the difference between his 10.84 vs my 10.0

Watch in fullscreen....

Ya, I know but I'm fighting traction issues. What rear tire are you running? I don't really want a race tire because I put a lot of miles on it and getting caught in a rain storm with a race tire isn't high on my priority list. Whats your track elevation?

Nice pass! Congrats

 

[IcebourgGT500]

Good pass.......My 2005 would run 10.1X's @ 146, pretty much same mods. GSXR1000's are some fun bikes!!

Not sure of elevation. Located in Clay City, KY

I'm now running a Michelin Pilot Pure 2CT rear. Holds really well. You are running into traction problems probably because you are extended. Lower it front and rear and get a front strap which will help tremendously with traction. I would at least go with a pilot power 2ct tire which is a great middle tire between street and race. Good luck!

congrats on the 9s

i was on the same boat, ran a couple 10.0 but didnt manage to get it in the 9s, i did a [email protected] on my K7 1000 weigh about 190lbs suited. Only mods were yoshi dual slip on, cat delete and BMC street filter. Lowered the front end a bit but didnt strap it

Thanks man! i've been following your threads....i wish i was able to jump right in and go extended, nitrous, etc etc

I think i'm actually going to finish out the year at stock wheelbase, and try to get consistent in the 9's and hopefully get down into the mid-low 1.6x 60' times. If i'm still into it next year, i'll start with extensions and an air shifter.

Nice bud. Can't wait to see you make some runs.

Nice riding man! Congrats on the pass

Thanks Dave, hope we can make it to Bowling Green sometime this year.

 

[glhs422]

Great passes! Congrats on the 9 sec runs.

 

[thomas91169]

considering most people couldnt even hold onto the handlebars launching a 11sec bike let alone a 9sec pass.......id say no cheating here, only skillz to pay the billz.
