More ZX-14 video clips...

Some of you may have seen these videos on psychobike.

They were taken in San Antonio 2 weeks ago. The air conditions there had me slowed down a bit, but I managed to get to the finals in Pro Gas 9.20 index class until I lost against a bike with training wheels, DOH!!

Enjoy!!

In those vid's, I was only getting 1.40-1.42 60 foot times. When its cool out, and with a good track, I've been 1.33 60 foot, and 1.35-1.37 consistently. But with the warming weather, my short times are starting to slow down a bit.

Just get a good smokey burnout, lean forward, get the RPM's about 3-5K, and just whack the throttle and release the clutch ASAP.

However, although it looks and sounds easy, remember I am 11'' over. Its tougher to keep it down with a shorter wheelbase.

And lastly, PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!!!! Seat time is everything!!!!!

Does the guy holding your video camera have Parkinson's disease, or something? Two words: Image Stabilization! Your launches are almost as breathtaking as your remarkable bike... I truly enjoyed watching all those vids... despite the fact they made me a bit motion-sick at times. Your front end seems GLUED to the track, and you can tell with the second to last race where your opponent is hopping all over the place like a drunken rabbit with a neurological disorder trying to keep up with you. Good job, Ninjaboy. Good job indeed.

Thanks!!

I apologize for the video quality, it was taken with my Kodak camera that takes video's, and the guy taking the vid's was more interested in watching than recording, but I don't blame him.
