damn im rusty

last night was the 1st outing for me on the new zx14r. all i can say is this is a totally different ride than my ole trusty 06. it was raining at the track and was so humid i was sweating like a pig. 1st pass blew tire off like nothing. so i was a lil hesitant next pass heres a rundown


1.53 60ft. lol used to run 1.45s on my 06
4.034 330ft
6.101 1/8th
117 1/8
7.905 100ft
9.40 1/4
145.78 1/4


i have alot of excuses mostly my fault but it is what it is. i got kicked out after that pass.



bike set-up. extensions,tsukigi sidewinder, and 16/44 gearing (too much gearing in my opinion)the bike is not tuned and running 87 octane only has 200 mileson it.im 225 lbs unsuited and havent been on a track in two yrs.
i really suck at footshifting now-adays also i see. more updates to come. sucky start but ill get it for sure.
