nahuel, to bad you're in Argentina ,I have both sets of extensions I'd like to sell. If you're going to ride on the street I think you will want the 6 inch ,they will help with your 60ft at the track but are still good on the street ,the stock gearing is actually good at the track , if you gear it down it just wants to wheelie,its a fun bike to race , challenging,and relatively quick for what it is ,have fun and keep us posted !

Thank you CW! I just sent you a private message for the sets you d like to sell. I see you have tried different combinations for the track, which would you say it was the best for 1/8 mile drag race? In terms of extension 6 or 10, sprockets gearing combiantion (since i ll put a 520 new extended chain i could change gearing too),and other change you would recomen. Your experience would be really helpfull for me. Thank you mate!!

15 45 is a good place to start will put you thru the right in 4th gear,thru the quarter in 5th ,but also still usable on the street .

 

[nahuel]

Thank you Cw! I finally decided to go with the long extensions to go full drag. Gearing i will take your advice on 15 - 45! I will let you the results in race once i have the bike on track. Cheers!

I made 8 passes last night in Gainesville ,had 5 runs in the 9.9s pair of 9.91s best ,it was less than perfect conditions so I was happy with what I got done

 

[nahuel]

9.9!!! That is fast!! Today i received my elements for the bike, so next weekend i will go to try 1/8 mille. Any advice on rear suspension setting? I have 10" extensions

 

[Cw09]

If you're on the stock shock ,all the preload and full hard on rebound ,it's probably overwhelmed by the stretch

 

[nahuel]

Yes, i have the oem shock absorber, but i am installing a rear lowering link. I dont know weather to put the link all low or in the middle. Did you lower your bike too?

 

[Cw09]

Yes ,you will probably want the lowest setting

 

[nahuel]

I went yesterday to try for the first time the bike to the drags. I did 6,63 with 0.01rt. I want to put a shinko tire since the used metzeler i have slips a lot. Do you recomend to do something to the clutch? Thanks!

 

[Cw09]

Keep the stock clutch,im curious to see how the new style clutch holds up with the stretch !

 

[Cw09]

I had a fun TNT last night three runs in the 9.8s,two 9.9s new best of 9.808 ,that's pretty close to 9.7 so I guess I have a new goal !

 

[nahuel]

Congratulations chuck, i told you, those are amazing times

 

[Cw09]

I'm trying a new m2 shock today ,kinda tricky testing on race day but that's the way it goes sometimes

 

[Cw09]

I haven't posted here in a while,went to Clearwater last night to TNT ,I have been in "bracket"mode all summer ,now that that's over I'm trying to go faster and have fun!

[Cw09]

I spent the yesterday at sgmp ,made a bunch of 1/4 mile tests and did some 1/8 mile bracket racing,had a blast and got the orange bike a new zip code !!! She's officially a 9.7 bike now!!

 

[Cw09]

I don't know why but I can't post pics today , but I ran a 9.79 ,and bumped that a couple runs later with a 9.76

 

[Cw09]

Yesterday SGMP new record 9.71 at 132.6

 

[OldSchlPunk]

DAMN! That's great! Quite the improvement, you should be proud.

 

[Cw09]

So this past weekend at sgmp mancup races on Friday night I ran a new best 9.68 at 135.3 ,then on sat morning a guy on a 17 runs a 9.64 !! He's a very good rider and just getting started on the fz I'll do my best to keep up with him !
