Thinking of making my bike LONG!!!

Well as of right now my booza is sitting at 68" and it's fine for motor but when I really try to get aggressive with the nitrous it's in the air till the 8th or longer. And I haven't rode this bike on the street in about a year already so, I'm thinking just putting a flat slick and slider on it and making it LONG like 74-80"
As of right now ive been 1.32 60' but have done quite a few 1.34s and was wondering what the extra WB would do for me and how much it would help? Do you guys think it will be possible to get into the 1.15 range??

You're going to have to either have more motor or crank the nitrous up early. If it's too long you may not be able to launch without bogging.

But to answer your question, some of the old outlaw bikes were 60'ing around there at 75". So yes it's possible. But you won't be able to throw a new arm, slick, and slider on the bike and just go out there and do it lol

Fuck That...Put a Progressive Nitrous system in !!!

A slick & wheelie bar is good for the ol' skool bikes...

If you mix Ol' Skool with New Skool, it never works!!!

Its on a progressive but if I ramp it in any slower my bike bogs any faster and its in the air. I'm spraying 100 shot but 50% in 1st and even have that ramped in. And I'm having to click 2nd about 20' out most of the time due to it coming up to fast.

Oh and ill NEVER run a bar on the bike. Only bike I'd run a bar on is maybe a old GS...

Try adjusting your shock. Or maybe add 4-5 psi in the rear tire.

Also put some delay in the controller, if it leaves fine on motor put 1 second of delay, start at 20% and ramp over 1.7 seconds. You'll be full nitrous about 175 feet out, you'll basically 60' mostly on motor.

If your wheely problems start at 20 feet out, thats probably when you're fully out of the clutch and WOT which is when your nitrous comes in. You're basically adding 50 hp instantly.

That's the beauty of a controller, you can tailor the controller to work with your chassis.

At 65" with 220hp on motor and a 120 shot I was running 1 second of delay, 15% start percentage and 2 seconds of build time. Geared 18/41.

your clutch is too stiff and your shock is too soft.

To answer your question,@ 80 with slick and slider you should 1.1X 60 if you have the power and chassis set-up to do it.
