Yeah, it is like the "fruits of my labor" paying off. 
Now I am sitting on an unopened jug of MR9 for the winter...hope it keeps.

The bike would have gained 2-3 mph had I put some MR9 in it. The bike was running out of gas near 4 pm, and I put some old MR9 in...and it lost mph. Either the fuel was stale, or it ran lean, or someone didn't twist the grip enough.

I dont know why racers out there dont jump all over Jason Miller's StreetBike Seminars & motorcycle track days???
Depending on your skill level you can add anywhere from 3/10ths. to a 10th off your ET's just by attending !!!
Thats excellent bang for your buck !!!

shane i think the R! sleave or R6 throttle sleave has a real round cable area and would make it less than or close to 1/4 turn. if you are intrested let me know and i will find out exactly which bikes sleave to use. then she will get er WFO pronto..

Nice meeting you red rocket & icarus!!!
Rachael was kickin ass on her 14...I asked her about her Gix1000, she says what 1000???...lol
I was happy with my 9.31 @ 151 on Rosa but then the clutch started fading...
Rick, you are flying on that bike! Amazing that Racheal was able to put 7 mph on that, honestly...

ship i do not know if i would do that to a 250.
who is liable if you grab too much throttle too quick and that 250 rips your head off?
i may try it on my 12 but since i am spotting those zx14s 150cc or so i should be able to get away with it.

It was nice to finally meet some other members as well. I drove 500 miles, spent a pile
of money on gas and the seminar fee..
Was it worth it?...........
HELL YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I finally got into the 8's.
I ran an 8.820 @ 161.05

Icarus, everytime I saw you make a pass it was an 8.9 sumthin...I did see that 8.82 and I saw only one 9.0 pass...
How did you like Jason's track prep?...I saw you lining up in different spots and getting traction!!!
Yeah Shane...The throttle body mod made a big difference and so does Racheal's 150lb. weight

CrotchRocket, like I said, it was worth the trip. I think if I could have got my clutch hand
to get with the program I would have been in the 8.70's.
By the way, the guys on the 14 forum are crying foul on my speed, so help me out if you
can. Apparently I lack credibility. :-)

I think you could have got some more mph if you fattened it up a bit, Dennis.
