How tall are you? I just got the catalyst seat, and being 6'2, i don't think I'll be able to use it. I can't hardly get my feet up.

what yall think about how far the header is pushed in? i tried to take from a few different angles to try and post as accurate at i could. i was trying a little too hard for a 5.9 second run. its been a while since ive been in the 5's, and havent with this bike. oh well, try next month

It looks like the stocker. I can't believe it wheelied with that tire on there. Put your Michelin on.

Full bore. When I bought it all they had was a 200, and I had to have it. It looks better than a 190 but its HORRIBLE for everything else. The sides of the treat go straight down... Useless.

It seems like you are not getting the throttle pinned quickly. I say that because some of your slower 60 ft's have a better 330'. That will also hold your mph down. What do you think?

I guess that could be it, I'm not real sure... I'm all ears for suggestions.

I found that when I ran 16/45 gearing at 63" it made it easier to 60 foot. But then I couldn't get in the throttle as fast because it was more likely to wheelie. I believe that the less aggressive you are with the throttle, the more gear you can run. You have a whole lot of gear...so you are able to 60 ft. the bike quick...but can't get in the throttle.
As an example of the difference, I am running 16/43 gearing. I can turn a 1.4x 60 foot staging at 3500 rpm. That is because the gearing allows me to be more aggressive with the throttle. In turn, the 330' improves. At any rate, I think most people would agree that your 330' and 660' do not match your 60 ft's. The mph is also low...so, I think it is just a matter of pinning the throttle sooner. Which you may or may not be able to do with that much gear.
I believe that I saw in a video that Wee is at very near the end of his swingarm extensions. Perhaps when you add in some more wheelbase it will help you utilize all of that gear. 16/48 is a lot.

I believe I am pinning the throttle, but wouldn't having to run 7psi in the tire have a little bit to do with that??

I don't think it is the tire psi that is killing your 330' and 1/8th. It can hold you mph down some...but I don't think it is going to cost you 5-6 mph and .15 or so at the 1/8th.
But if you are pinning it, you are pinning it. Only you can say for sure.

Dont get me wrong, I'm not saying I am pinning it asap, but I just am not real positive what I'm doing wrong... I know something isn't right bc I feel like the bike should be putting better numbers down.

eklipse.....The 14 needs alot of throttle input ASAP !!!...Kawasaki made it that way from the requests of the DragRacers!!!
If you put a 43 or 44 on the back in time youll see that you will go faster in the 330...Your 60 ftoot will suffer a bit but you can work on it getting in the gas ASAP.....

finally! someone that watches the 330 times. a good 60 doesnt always mean a better 330.
