69", and to answer Brent's question, No I have not been in the motor, not even to change the plugs yet nor the clutches.
WOW! Man, that is something there. I thought at least some race plugs or something like that but you say no! Great job and that gives me hope with my 14.

More testing Smeg Vs Sidewinder......... Went back to the 1/8 track today with the Brocks Smeg reinstalled... I ran my best ever 1/8 mile 5.68 @ 125 ...We had a bit of a head wind but still ran a better ET than with the Muzzy Sidewinder and i did it with a slower 60 foot time .... So as far as i can tell there is no real difference in power between the two pipes ( 5.69 with the Sidewinder and 5.68 Brocks Smeg ) Both are priced farely close but the Brocks Smeg fit and finish is WAY better !!! The Smeg is a snap to install and remove ,The Muzzy is a down right pain in the ass to install..So i guess it comes down to what pipe you like... I'm staying with the Brocks Smeg ....The Muzzy Sidewinder is in Bikeland for sale thread for 800.00 bucks shipped to your door in the lower 48 states ..... My loss is your gain ... You will save around 200.00 bucks Plus shipping costs ........ Smokin.....

You just made my day Cause I was really considering going with the brocks sidewinder! But the sidewinder does let you lower the bike a bit more right?

As I mentioned from the Brock's site, the SMEG made more power than the Muzzy sidewinder on a Busa so I am sure the same applies for the 14.
Smokin' did you have the filter in/out this time with the SMEG installed? I remember above where you left it in and forgot with the Muzzy 'winder on this time. As always though, that B!atch is flying.

WOW! I wonder if having the filter out would help at all? Is your filter the stock one but with that mesh screen removed or modded more than that?

I hate to run our 1/8 mile track without it because it's a dust bowl.... I do believe there is a bit to be gained with it removed , it's not much but does seem to pick up some MPH with it removed...Smokin...

Yes the Sidewinder would let you drop the bike some over the Smeg but the limiting factor would be the oil pan.....Someone will come out with a lower drag pan soon i hope , that way with a sidewinder you could really slam the puppy.... Smokin..

LOL. While the bike really does look great, are you saying that because it has a Muzzy Exhaust system?

Thanks Rob.
I've met you you and Ryan a few times in Atlanta at the NHRA nationals, and also at Valdosta last year.
Your team is truly a class act.
The sidewinder, along with all of your parts/accesories, are all great.
I will be in Houston cheering you guys on, I'll stop by and say hello.
