Hot Damn i'm in the 8s !!!!!!!!
First off let me tell you the weather sucked, high 70s, muggy , sticky and overcast all day ... Good news was the track was hooking hard !!!!! Bad news is i hit the rev limiter on the 1 to 2 shift every pass.. With the flys out you go though first gear real fast!!
First run off the trailer ..Hit the rev limit on the one two shift..
60........1.50
330......3.86
1/8........5.82 @125.38
1000....7.53
1/4........8.98 @ 153.88
Second run i almost got the gaurd rail .. and had to let off ...
9.06 @ 151.03
Third run....Hit the rev limiter again on the one two shift ..
60.....1.42
330....3.83
1/8......5.79 @ 125.08
1000...7.50
1/4 ...8.95 @ 153.60
Forth and last pass and i hit the friggin limiter again on the one two shift....
9.00 @ 152.67
I feel with some more seat time and not hitting the rev limiter it will go 8.80s... It hard to get the hang of a new set up when you only get 4 friggen runs in 5 hours.....
The good news is i got my 8 second pass and i did it with a stock motor ZX14 with bolts ons AND running 89 pump gas .....If some told me 5 years ago that kawi was going to build an 8 second bike with just bolt ons i would have called them crazy .... Smokin .....

AWESOME, AWESOME, AWESOME. The funny thing is that I thought it was just me that had that problem of hitting the rev limiter on the 1-2 shift. I never really rode the bike with the stock flies in so I don't know how it ran all stock. A friend rode it a whopping 6 miles from the dealer to my house and we took it apart waiting for Brock's parts to arrive.
You have a great running mill. What RPM's do you leave at and do you slip the clutch alot with the added stretch? what tire pressure since the track was hooking so well? Oh, what brand is the 89 gas?
Oh, I'm glad you have the MAXTON map installed too.

Awesome. Much longer than stock wheelbase now? 1.42 is also indicative of a very light rider with some very good skills.
Seems almost unreal on 89 octane. My 1397 dynoed at 195rwhp and i have only gone a best of 5.84 @ 124 / 9.04 @ 151...
Congrats!

Stage at 5500 and with the flys out i can pretty much just toss the clutch out and pin the throttle ... 24 psi in the tire ... 89 pump gas from Hess station...Smokin...

Good job smokin, I knew you would be there as soon as you got to the 1/4 mile track. 8.80's are just around the corner for you. Now just think how fast you would be with a 40 shot! Can you say 8.60's on a bike that has no motor work besides bolt -ons.

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.
