Glad you had fun and thanks for a good video. Were there many other bikes there? lova Posted 2011-07-29 11:38 PM (#92056 - in reply to #92013) Subject: Re: Drag - test and tune Cruiser Posts: 142 it was a quite night..there were mainly car/truck and a really cool eletric drag car built by a group of young students the 'man in charge' let me run for free the entire night..."I've never seen a bike like this!!!%$#D%*am!" he said.

Not bad: You gotta remember the first Kawasaki Z-1 903's ran 12.4's and blew the whole motorcycle world away back then...............

If you add cams and extend the rev limit it would be between 112-118 RWHP. The new power should get you down in the 7.70-7.80's for the 1/8th, which if all goes good would be 11.90's 1/4 mile times.... lova Posted 2011-07-30 11:03 PM (#92120 - in reply to #92013) Subject: Re: Drag - test and tune Cruiser Posts: 142 Thx Steve 112-118 RWHP...woot woot ....now you are talking!!!!....i just updated my wish list
