quote: Bently. I always go to CONESVILLE two times a year. I ran at Cedar Falls last year at a test / tune & 3 at Earlville. I didn't put half the parts on til after these places. I did get to see good times at Conesville 1/8 th mile. I do have my time slips to prove I'am right ,unless the tree wasn't right so i will come to Cedar Falls as soon as i get my bike put back together. I will show you the slips & i guess we will have to race. ( I respect all riders but i think smokin is to full of himself to give credit where credit is do. Sorry smokin! My opinion...) I'll also give you my # if you riders want to ride or race. It's only for fun to me. Win or loss, i'am happy!
Before you make statements about me go back and read the countless hours of posts i have made ..I spend alot of time helping other zx14 owners go fast without costly mistakes... What have you done with your 13 posts ? You jump on me for wanting some proof of your ET claims ....How rude of me ....

Don't have a scanner so i can't post tickets. When i get a scanner i will show them. And smokin', not trying to nock you but i wouldn't have put the numbers up to BS everyone. You also say you help people out on this site... That BS comment was uncalled for. That's what started my ruddness because i'am happy with what i have done so far. If you do help people, be a leader not a follower and stop putting people down. (Yes, thanks for your other help and statements!!!!!!)I have looked at alot of your postings and i do agree with alot of it.

I never put you down.... All i did is raise the BS flag.... And i'm still holding it up till i see a ticket with a 5.60 on a stock wheel base bike ..
Better yet put it at stock wheel base and go to Bentlys Track and show us .... That i will believe .....If you just show us a time ticket we have no way of knowing if it was even your bike ...

bsebastian, theres alot of guys on here that know what it takes to run 5.60s stretched let alone stock wheelbase, I also got to say I have to see it with my own eyes. You could have a ticket with false numbers on it sometimes it happens. We have a guy in town who thinks he ran 9.11 on a gsxr 750 to but the clocks were screwed up. Take a picture of the ticket and email it to me and I will post it. just don't think you ran that fast nothing personal.

First time poster here and will be a new owner of an SE, 2008 model Monday. I have been slowed down by the insurance man, but we have that behind us now.
Anyways, I have been reading this thread and boy does it bring back the memories talking about 1/8 mile times. Several years back, I had a 67 tube chassis camaro that weighed in around 2350 with me in it. I had a fuel injected 509 ci chevy that flat launched my ass down the track. We were bracket racing so I was launching easy and not exactly looking for the fastest times but it ran 5.60's consistantly. Now fast forward 8-9 years and I am going to be a proud owner of a bike that is capable of running similiar times. Hell yeah, I am already giddy. Oh I know I would be lucky to get a 6.20 out of it at first, but damn these are rockets as I already know what it feels to run these times. It's trully amazing you can buy something off the showroom for 10 grand with these capabilities. Heck, I had more then that in the motor alone last time around.

by stock motor you do you mean stock internals? or no mods? Everybody wants to claim that they are stock even when they've got a pipe, pc3, air shifter, stretched swingarm, nitrous, etc. just because they haven't put a big bore or stroker kit in it. Bolt ons = not stock anymore.

I say it's a false ticket happens more then you think. 5.90 to 5.50 you need to pick up a bunch of 60ft and 330 ft to pull that off.
