Spoken like someone who can't launch a bike... You'd be surprised how many people come over to the drag strip from road racing and complain about how much harder it is than they thought it was going to be.

I think road racing is much easier than launching a motorcycle just perfect and riding it perfect the whole 1/4 mile.
I'd love to learn to be a good drag racer. Hopefully I become one someday. I've never been on the strip.

Oh yeah drag racing isn't as easy as it looks! But it's still fun even if you're not Ricky gadson ____________ '06 Passion Red ZX-14
Back in the day, they said I could, "Cut a light." I was drag racing way before road racing. Yes, that is me. Check the gray market '79 T-140 4-valve (not the newer 8-valve). Rare dual front disc. Had a little factory back door help with dealer/sponsor before Triumph when under.

OK......Here is a parts list
Motor is stock bore and stroke, stock head and cams.
It still uses the factory fuel injection ( didn't want carbs), but we gutted the wiring harness.
APE studs and lightened and balanced crank by APE
Carillo rods and CP pistons.
Removed the counter balancers and installed Clems shafts.
Also removed the stator and the water pump and radiator.
MTC slider and R&D warmed over the transmission.
Adams billet pan, straight link and swingarm.
Brocks sidewinder and one of a kind Ohlins shock by Brocks (Thanks Brock!!)
Koenig front end, RC aurora wheels, Catalyst body kit.
Installed nitrous system of my own design.
I am very confident this bike will run mid to high 7's....My streetbike ran 8.30's
I have had it to the track once, and attempted to make 2 passes. The first pass I discovered that a Dynatek ARC-2 and a MPS autoshifter do NOT like each other. It shifted through all the gears before it went 60'.
The second pass showed promise but I lifted at the 330' as this was the first time the bike had been ridden, I wanted to get a feel for it at a lower speed.
The bike sits lower in the front now, and the ARC-2 has been taken off the bike.
My local tracks are closed now, But I will be testing in Texas over the winter.
