Some mods done to the green mamba
My buddy welded some bungs on the swingarm for MCcintosh footpegs, some center stand buttons then he welded on parts to hold my brake line and tc sensor wire (no more zip ties) than repowdercoated to the same type of black as frame. Have a new license plate bracket being made will give me max clearance should have that this week. I f anybody likes them let me know and I will see how much my buddy would charge they will be made of aluminum and laser cut. (will post pictures when I get it)
Got my final part for nitrous (Zex tps switch) it has 2 activator leads instead of just 1.
Finally lowered 1 inch in the front and adjusted the rear til we go out and test and Shinko hook up.
The one thing you can't see is the ECU reflashed by GUHL,can't wait to test it out and the Only thing left is air shifter, air cleaner and PCV
   
Unfortunately since I can't race like Lee and Wheelie, all I got left doing mods it's almost as satisfying LOL
Ahh ahh BS who I am kidding!

it looks great Tom, if you plan on spray in more than a 30 shot, you're gonna need some way to take timing out.

Thanks ken my dyno guy and myself have already talked about this some, The first stage (30hp progressive mps spyder setup) used for controlling dial in in index racing will be on the first map for a PCV will run a little rich on motor don't think it will that much of a difference , the second stage (20hp) pass button (oh shit button) will be setup to automatically switch to the second map which will tuned for ignition and fuel because the total will 50hp. That's the theory we are starting with, unless someone has a better idea, which I am open to ideas better than mine anytime. LOL

Joseph at 6'1" plus I weigh anywhere from 240's to 260's in the summer, it is too much of a pain in the but, plus can't get under the bubble as much if I put my feet on the front pegs, so I just lean forward with as much weight on front end as possible and feet out towards the back, than when I launch my feet go right up on those back pegs. Because technically by NHRA and IHRA your feet have to be on pegs, you can't just hang in the air. 1BAD I was snowblowing the driveway with the back tire LOL.

Yea Shane I have to call him to see how much timing he advanced, might not be necessary thanks everybody for comments, it's kind of frustrating to not be able to ride so I am trying to think out my layouts and wiring for my add-ons so they look as clean as possible. The one thing I can say for sure is my ZX12 had a ton more room for things, this has been a challenge. LOL

With a little patience you can do do an air shifter setup with on board compressor and I was able to keep everything in the back of the bike except for two wires for the air shifter button, so any problems at the track will be simple (hopefully). Here are some pictures if anybody is interested. Down to about a month and a half to till riding time. LOL
Whats nice is the compressor is 15 bucks at walmart so I will always have a spare and can fill with the schrader valve til I can get anoter at end of day

Will it shift property with the solenoid in the back of the bike, I would think it would take to long for the air to reach the ram.... I've always been told to have the less than 12" away from the ram.

My advice on the air compressor is, get one from mps.
I tried to go the cheap way 3 or 4 times, buying the ones from Autozone, walkmart, and even one from advance auto. They all messed up in one way or another. The mps compressor is over 4 years old, hasn't missed a beat. I pump it up to 150 psi before every shift, not 120 like I see a lot of guys doing.
That's just my experience with different compressors.

No problem. It may work just fine, but if you start missing shifts that is the first place I would start. Is that the Slime compressor?
