Default A few bike pics...

So, we re-learn how to launch bikes today..... It has been a few years since I've drag raced a bike, so I was out practicing a little launching today.

Before anyone asks, no, I wasn't doing a full pass with no jacket. Merely doing 1st gear hits. lol.





This one came out good, no bog, little spin





She sits a little higher than I wanted it, but I'm a big boy, so rubbin fenders aint good...










Welp, thats all for now. Next up, the Arm. Short bikes = no fun...

All throttle, no bottle!


Possibly when Mel's car is done we'll 'Arm it, then maybe play with a little low boost applications.

Stock Motor > ?

Will do, I have always wanted to get into bikes and stuff. Have a 06 R6 now, and keep that as a drag bike. Considering getting rid of the caddy and getting a truck and putting together a drag bike. I have a good friend, that use to drag Nitro Harleys, and thought about talking to him about building a bike.
