Author Message   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:30 pm:        had a great time, it was my second time at the strip with the 1125, first time with the barkers pipe and race ecm. first run was 11.0 @ 128 1.97 60 ft second run was 10.87 @ 126 1.84 60 ft and my final run was 10.74 @126 1.78 60 ft i have lots of room for improvement i really need to work on the launch and controlling the wheelies i would have some vids but the person that was suppose to be recording wasnt paying attention when i was up...... also on a side not my good friend has an 08 Kawasaki concours with a 50 shot of nitrous he was running consistent 10.5's and even hit a 10.41 @ 136   Methyman Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:40 pm:        What did it run the first time you took the bike to the track? The first time you went to the track was it with stock exhaust? If you get that 60 foot down the et will come up. Seems like you had some fun at the track! I think those number are respectable!   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:44 pm:        my very first run was an 11.24 @124. i had a great time   Methyman Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:46 pm:        Stock exhaust and ECM?   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:49 pm:        oh sorry, yes   Methyman Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 02:53 pm:        Does it feel like a different bike with the Barker exhaust and race ecm? I am getting my Barker exhaust this coming week and I already have the Erik Buell Racing ECM.   Puzzled Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 03:29 pm:        Congrats on the runs. It can be addicting. Check out the drag race section of the BadWeb forum.   Littlebutquick Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 04:00 pm:        YES IT CAN BE ADDICTING .I RAN 10.5 TOTAL STOCK BIKE   Sprintst Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 04:51 pm:        Your weight? Fuel load? Corrected or raw figures?   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 05:06 pm:        thanks guys methyman, the bike with the ECM runs like it should have in the first place, no jerky throttle, smooth through out the rev range and quite a bit more power. sprint, i weigh about 210 in full gear tank was FULL i just topped it off about 10 miles before we got to the track. i dont really know what you mean about "corrected or raw figures" the times i posted are as they show up on the slips.   Littlebutquick Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 05:15 pm:        keep your fuel low for weight and your fuel will get hot as well run it just off fuel light might get you a little more off your times ,strap it down take your mirrors off,let the bike cool down try not to let the fans run it all helps   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 05:27 pm:        thanks for the tips LBQ i will keep all of that in mind next time.   Bueller4ever Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 06:01 pm:        Do you slip the clutch for most of 1st gear? I've tried launching from stop lights and just end up riding a wheelie after releasing the clutch fully.   Ohsoslow Posted on Sunday, April 10, 2011 - 09:01 pm:        i was launching around 3k letting the clutch right out and short shifting 1st gear
