Thanks - it was a bitch to make it how I imagined it.....

Not working on it this weekend so I am stuck riding my Vmax.........which, though decent, feels like a moped after the tuned 14.....

Me and 'max cut an 11.76@114.32 - less than half a second off the "pro" numbers from the magazine :-)

For a few rounds I beat my fellow ZX14 riders.......but they got better as the day went ....

Planning another ride for next Sunday - you should be ready, Bob :-)

Jay Gleason's bike was NOT stock at all.........stock meaning what was sold to the public. The track was way better prepped as well and he got paid to ride vs. a REAL job :-) Dale Walker rode hard and will tell you that running even 10.50 is super tough - even though he was 4 time natational champ......I've talked to him myself and he even wants to ride my turbo 14. Jay was a skinny dude.....I'm 200lbs and it ain't beer weight..... Motorcyclist magizine's Hard Numbers give Max an 11.30 corrected on the very same track I used...........less than half a second.....

Jackie Gleason?.......he drove a bus ....on tv :-)

If you think you are so tough on a computer I am willing to meet you half way to where you are to meet me and TRY to hammer anything......I don't play nice to anyone that is acting tough......

yup, here's my new sleigh!!!



Here' s Rudolf, sometimes I stud his tires and ride him on the ice and snow...


Its a CR500AF I built, 73RWHP and 225 lbs 110 mph of snorting 2 stroke adrenaline.
It loves to wheelie!!

Our riding season is just as long, the winter is the training season though, as its way harder to ride in or on 1- 2 ft of snow and on ice, than pavement, and ya it gets cold...
The best riding in snow is on about 1 ft, after snowmobiles packed it hard, and its been through a freeze thaw cycle. Getting cross rutted in grooves from other bikes, and snowmobile ski's. Like hitting wet logs at shallow angles for those who ride in the dirt.




Like I said , I don't drag plastics on the 14... because I don't have much desire to push the street that hard anymore, not do to lack of skilz or balz.
I have dragged Rudolfs Hand gaurds on bare ice, with fresh studs, and rode it out though!

Imagestation must have locked my old pics, as I am not a paying customer.

Here's a link though
