Bad Blue track ready ....... :)
Care package from Brocks came in today ..
Window links ..
41 tooth rear sprocket to calm down the TQ in first gear ..
Not for the track but make the bike not so loud around town .. Brocks Butt plug .. 
Brocks Wizbang oil and oil additive ..
I removed the red exhaust tag and replaced it with a black tag..
All that is left to do is get a few more street milles on the bike and change oil.. Then we can all see how slow i can go ..

I also took a guess at what my rear shock adjustments need to be for the drag strip ... I set my old ZX14 all the way in and backed off a 1/4 of a turn ... Seeing that the new ZX14R is valved a little stuffer ... I set the rebound 1 turn out from seated and the compression 1 and 1/2 out for seated .. I will have to make a few passes and see what it needs but i have to start somewhere ..

You only need two tools: WD-40 and Duct Tape.
If it doesn't move and should, use the WD-40.
If it shouldn't move and does, use the duct tape.

Nice pile of tools there, the only thing missing is the bfh. I went to a 40 on the rear of my swb 09, does this bike have different gearing from the factory?

I'm trying for test and tune next week ... The Dr put my surgery off till Dec 28 ... The Meds he has me on are making me feel pretty good .. Today i did have a little set back and didn't feel so well .. I'm hoping i'll be up to making a few passes next week ... I have to tell you i'm a bit worried... 190+ HP and not being for 6 mos has me a little worried .. So my passes will be easy ones , or very carefully ones ... I'm no damn hero and i have no reason to start being one now ..

As much as I want to run mine at stock wb, I don't know if it's worth the effort.
30 more HP than before???
I know you'll do well - just ease into it.

Lucky this bike has the same problems as the 2006 ZX14 with flys in .. Look at Wee and Rickys videos .. Everything is fine till 7 grand and the flys open up and then wheel pops up just like the 06 did .. That is why i removed a tooth in rear in hopes it calms it down a bit ..

I'm sure hoping this bike is like the 2006.............pulling the fly's on my 2006 was a worldclass mod.......and best of all it was free!!!!
I'm hoping that piped and tuned with the fly's pulled and 47mm TB's this bike puts out around 210 RWHP

Can't wait for the track results. So the Vortex aluminum sprockets are just for racing or can you run them all the time?
