Do people still ride ZX12's? I thought those went out in the 90's? lol
I do.... and it would leave your 14 so far behind, you'll end up back in the 90's. =)
Try that with me in the 1/4 mile PH .... I will be at the finish line and you will still be at the 1/8 mile mark saying what the hell just happened ...  
i'll take you up on that the next time you are in nc hit me up. we may have to keep it in the 1/8 this old 8 year old motor mite not make it throw the 1/4.lol let me move and i'll run on motor and you can spray that 14. just a Little fun. after the 14 and 12 we can run the 10's. my old 07 ant got much to it but just as long as i got gas $$$ to get home i'll be happy. lol

Smokin, you're changing the game. The vid consists of roll-ons from an agreed upon low speed up top until its obvious who won. We stayed in it till over 200 mph. I can see by your sig you are quick, a mutual buddy of ours has already vouched for your riding, however this is top end riding, not just a short 1/8 or 1/4. More than likely your first time out you would run short of your potential because your set-up may not be optimal. Motor for motor at, say, the 9/10ths, my money would be on Phantom, not you. Until you do it you don't know if your gearing is wrong, your mapping isn't perfect..hell maybe your bike tankslaps at 193.9 on GPS, etc. Phantom was merely sticking up for the ZX-12 moniker, which the 14 is indebted to in the first place. NinjaNick jokingly poked fun at the 12 and Phantom came in to defend it. Same here, I enjoy topping them out and so far, from what my eyes have seen in the REAL WORLD, UP TOP they are really not that far apart when you let them off the leash and let them rip deep in 6th. That says quite a bit considering their 150+cc difference, but I digress.

I what i know about 9/10 racing or top end racing had NOTHING to do with the post ... I was pulling PH13 chain ...GET IT ? It was a fucking joke , i kid with him all the time .... So i didn't need a fucking lesson on something i have been doing for 34 years ...You don't know me or what have done in 34 years of racing cars and bikes , 200 mph been there done that and got the t shirt...

Smokin, you've definately got me in the 1/4 mile department. Have you had a chance yet to make it to Maxton or Goliad and see what your 14 will do in the mile?
I think you'd love our SoFlo 9/10th mile drags. Best of both worlds!

PH13 these days of my later life i would have to pass on the 9/10 or the mile thing , at 53 i just don't have drive needed to do it any more ... For me it's all about ET and the MPH is just a side effect .. Years ago i did the top end stuff and loved it , nowdays i just don't feel safe doing it .. At 53 my limits have dropped and my reactions have become slower , i'm smart enough to know my body and mind have slowed with age... I'm still pretty sharp at the 1/4 thing but not like i was at 18 or even 40 , it takes a lot of work on my part to keep at this level .. Smokin ..
