1/4 mile updates
Made another trip the Kansas City, MO today to get some runs in.
Sponsor supplied me with a Catalyst seat pan to try out, I like it.
My short times got better 1.61-1.63
Made about 5-6 passes 9.6's-9.8's
Best pass was:
1.616
4.175
6.282 @ 116.44mph
8.110
9.673 @143.76mph
(Still footing shifting w/stock pipes and stock wheelbase, lowered and strapped 91 octane pump gas, & flies out)
The bike is great. I believe I can go even faster low 60's maybe even 50's just like the bike is right now.
Once again the four hour trip was worth every bit of the drive.

Oh yeah, as far as the seat I put electrical tape around the edge.
I gotta do some filing down on the sides so it doesn't scratch the paint.
I am going to get it painted soon, something custom that'll blend with the bikes colors.
Its worth the buy ,Gotta say Thanks to StreetBikesPlus.

Flying you are!

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Thanks guys,
Its gonna get real cold here in the next two days so I'm probably done for the year, unless I travel even further west or south. I have plenty of video tape to look at over the winter to critique my riding style and make improvements on get the 60fts down.
