1/8

Would the 10 even get outtta first in the 1/8?

What would be a respectable (non-professional) time for the 1/8?

Just wondering.

Respectable?? Probably 6.40s or better. I would suspect a gearing change would aid in better ets. It would suck to have to shift right before the line.

Pros and good riders... 6.0s

Top speed in 1st is 110, right? I would suspect you may have to shift right before the traps. You could try running through in 1 gear, but I doubt you could.

I would put a 1 tooth larger sprocket on the front and nail it (no shifting............ no waisted time) IMHO

Lowered, 1 down on the front sprocket, I ran 6.60 at 115 mph. That's 2nd gear no matter what.

The bike hits the rev limiter at 104, but redline is 99 mph.

Go 1 or 2 down on the front sprocket so you can use more of 2nd gear.

1 up on the front will make it extremely hard to launch due to the already-way-too-tall 1st.

Divide 102mph by 13k rpm and ya get theoretical miles per hour per 1000 rpm=7.84615. (first gear)

divide 120 by 7.84615 - that gives you rpm at 120 mph =15.29411k rpm

15,294 RPM in first gear!! Probably not.....rev limiter won't let ya .hehe

Have fun ;stay alive
