Default 9-second 600, vid inside

So I know this has nothing to do with cars, but if you're a bike, fan pick up a copy of the current Super Streetbike magazine (July 2010 issue) with my cover story. I get a ZX-6R into the 9's with just a few bolt-ons.

Here's a a quick vid I put together. Go buy a copy and help a starving journo out, lol!

Thanks

-Justin

LOL, all of the issues have become one these days and I forget what is out, when. Too much work, too little pay. Nice to see your Z28 is coming along, looks TONS different than when I first saw it! Quick too.

I'd rather go 9's in a car too, more difficult!

That's good for a 600 no doubt. What mods were done exactly? I've got a stockish FZ1 that is about to be in the 9's. Some of the newer 600's trap about what I do (135mph).

Yeah, with that much torque I bet you're faster through the 1/8th than that 600. What are your mods? I'd think with a full system, the right jetting, straped/lowered and the right gearing you'd get it. And a soft tire too. Pick up the issue for the full breakout of times with 60-ft's, but the quick shifter/Bazzaz saved us some pretty good time, more so than I thought it would.

Stage 1: Stock

Stage 2: Brocks lowering straps, Roaring Toyz lowering links and KG Clutch Factory clutch

Stage 3: Vortex rear sprocket (+5), EK chain

Stage 4: Bazzaz Z-Fi and Quickshifter, FMF slip-on

Stage 5: Roaring Toyz Swingarm Extension Kit, Shinko Hook-Up drag radial tire

yes 98 gsxr 1100, but it seems slow compared to this new bikes and well i already have two money hungry projects so it has to stay stock lol
although i would really love a turbo on it

oh btw i did not see if you put a power commander on that zx6? did you?

Ya right now my bike has -1 crank sprocket and filter. Fastest I've been is 10.06 ! 135 in the 1/4, and a 6.52 @ 113 in the 1/8. My bike is much heavier that that little 600 also. I think most mags said my bike would only run mid 10's at best.

Be careful of what air filter you're running, 9 times out of 10 a K&N will cost you HP when compared to the stock. Believe it or not, I just ran some dyno comparos and a K&N cost us 2 HP on a 2008 R1 and a little over 1 HP on a 2007 CBR600RR.
The stock air filters are so good these days you need to run something like a BMC track filter with a 200-count element (not very good) in order to see any type of gains. I'm not familiar with how the FZ1 responds to air filters though. But deep 10's is DAMN fast! I bet you'll hit 9's with just a little more practice, or maybe even a tank of some VP MR12 and you'd get it. That stuff is serious, we've seen upwards of 5-7 HP with just the gas. Albeit is too expensive to run on the street, but one night at the track in search of the 9's surely justifies the one-time expense.

We opted to run a Bazzaz and a Quick Shifter instead of the PC5. And yeah, do some searching, you can make that ol' 1100 haul serious a$$!!! Those bikes are dope, I've always liked them.

Ya i believe 9's will be had with better weather. So is that what you do is test for a magazine? I would love to do that, right now I am actually the fastest 2nd gen FZ1, over guys with PC3's and other engine mods. http://www.yamahafz1oa.com/forum/showthread.php?t=63011

I will be trying for 9's once some better weather hits. I want to try out a 15t sprocket so I can lower the 60' a bit. Right now my best is low 1.6's.

Nice, yeah that's moving out. Yeah, I'm the Associate Editor at SSB, so I have to do a little of everything and A LOT of writing. Shoot me an e-mail (justin.fivella@sorc.com) with some pics of your bike. Maybe I can do a little something with your FZ1, like aim for the 9's on it as well. Shoot me an e-mail and we can try and put something together.

Ya I will definitely do that, I will just need to get some better pics of it. All the ones I have are from when I bought it, which are not the nicest lol. That would be cool to get in a mag of some sort.

I would love to drag new bikes down the strip to see what they're made of.
