Best run of the day. R = .9248 60 = 1.9 1/4 = 11.00 128.87 First couple of runs were crap. Air shifter wasn't working right and my shift light isn't either. So I stopped playing with the accessories and just went out and ran. Whole bunch of 11.2, 11.1 times. I'm getting consistent, just cant keep that front end out of the air. |

Your 60 ft is crap, sorry. Try using two fingers on the clutch and two fingers still on the bar and ride the clutch out a little more to keep the front end down. Not to be mistaken with burning the clutch up and going no where. Are you running stock wheelbase? If so then you need bars or extension. If you get all the accessories working right that will help as well. Air shifter is good for a tenth or two. The best advice I can give as far as riding is if your not using two fingers on the clutch lever (middle and index) and two fingers on the bar then your most likely just dumping the clutch and that is why your front end keeps coming up. |

Yeah front is strapped, all the pre load out of the rear. Stock wheelbase. I know I've got some clutch work to do off the line, but that's not what bother's me. I don't use the clutch the rest of the way. It's the wheelies the rest of the way down that get me. |

Are you running a class or just t&t/grudge runs? |

I would say that's why your front end is coming up, your just jamming into gear and letting the big dog eat sometimes it takes a little more than balls to the wall. Get your air shifter working and get a wheelie bar or extension. |

Just t&t right now Mike. I'll get it. I'm really wanting some bars, but I think there's more I can do to get my times down. Each run seems to get a little bit better. |

I most definitely think you can get yourself in the 10's on a stock wheelbase. The added shifter and strap will help also. |

With that bike I think you can definetly get there. If you keep improving with runs keep making passes and work on your 60 ft, if you can get it too 1.7 your ET would be around 10.70 or better. The first 60 ft is everything. |

I'm with the other guys. I'd work on that 60 foot and the rest will come. You work that number down then the 1/4 will come down |

What do you weigh? I'm 160. I'm surprised to see such high of times. I was just out with my 1125R, no strap, no swingarm, no air or quickshifter and put down a 10.3 |
