Your trap speed and ET dont seem to mesh.

I pulled the same time roughly in my mustang on an easy pass at 14.15 and trapped 97 mph. I would think a bike would trap higher for that time, even if it were a cruiser.

Racing bikes is crazy fun. I never got the chance to take mine to the track unfortunately. Supposed to run high 11s/ low 12s though.

i need to get back w/ bike, im not scared to pull the wheel if need be.

crusier bikes arent all that fast. harleys run about the same times as well.

I raced my dads sportster before. High 13's. :mrgreen:

That was a puny 880cc though. I'm real curious to see what his new 1400cc DynoGlide would do.

an 883 is a 15 second bike. two of my buddies have the 883R's and they run 15s in the 1320. stop pulling numbers from your ass. unless that bitch has some serious work done to it, its not going that fast. i use help build custom harley's for my uncles shop when i was younger. i know those bikes!

what's it run in the 1/8th?

best to date is

1.6 60'
7.2@103mph 1/8th
10.8@123mph

this was in december last year closing day at atco. bike usually runs low 11's@121ish. it's a pretty heavy v-twin. doesnt have the top end like a inline 4, but it gets off the line nice if i can keep the front end down. only mod is slip on's, but they are off right now due to a broken flange. hopefully i can get the piece before the track meet. not a big deal though never ran the bike stock, so will be good to see if the slip on's do anything besides sound :)

hell- i'll race you in the 1/8:mrgreen: if my damn piece stays together that is.

shame atco/any track doesn't let bikes race cars. i could see how dangerous it would be but still less dangerous than doing it on the street.

i gotta line up with some of these bikes sometime, would be VERY good runs and could go either way.

Heres one of my mediocre runs from the bike, about a tenth off my best.
60 1.865
330 4.7
1/8 7.040@107
1/4 10.7@132
I need straps for the front to get my 60's down, 1st gear is long and I have a short wheelbase and light bike..

very nice, my dream bike is the 01 gsxr1000 with the black and silver. im gonna buy one by next summer. the zx7r is to slow. i was also thinking about putting the zx9r engine in it. im think it maybe to much work though. still not sure.
