extended swingarm and LSR
I'm not concerned with breaking any records but I really want one of those 200mph club hats. How far out (if any) can you be extended before it starts causing issues?

It's more usual in LSR to run with a stock wheelbase. The reason being that you need as much weight over the rear wheel as possible for better traction, particularly important as speed increases.

you have to set a record over 200 mph to get a hat at ECTA/SCTA events.

That's my 2006 bike. It has a TiForce system, PC3 with a custom map, Speedo-Healer, lowered and strapped and geared either 18/41 or 17/40 depending on conditions. Mirrors etc off too. It went through the speed traps at over 200 nine times, 205.4 was the best.
My 2012 is having a Brock's CT, PCV and an ecu reflash and will be lowered and geared up a little. It's work-in-progress but hopefully it'll be faster than the old bike.

This year we were making 258 hp all motor and had a wheelbase of 68" and the bike was geared for 226 mph at 11,600 rpm.
We couldn't get it over 210 and the tach was at 11,600 rpm. So we had 7% tire slippage.
In 2010 we were at 62" and went 219 on 268 hp all motor with 3% tire slippage.
Once you get over 200 or so you will just spin if the bike is too long. Keep it short.

you can get a white hat if you break 200, doesnt have to be a record. I wouldnt suggest much over stock wb having tried one event myself with a fairly stock bike (bolt on mods) i did have a couple small wheelies and a few small spins. its not like a prepped drag surface thats for sure!

For Loring that's right Scott but at Wimington you have to set a record over 200.
The four different places I've ran at are all concrete and traction is very limited. At least at the Goliad track they would let you do a burn out to clean the tire off and heat it up a little.
