welcome to my world!RomSpaceKnight wrote:I've run 11.04 @122 with stock pistons and a stock rear rime and swingarm with no air shifter. A good sized rear rim and a 3" over swingarm with an air shifter and 10's would have been a given. Admittedly new 600's run deep in 10's but 10 sec in 1/4 from an old KZ is, in my opinion, somewhat respectable. Impresses the heck outta the car guys and chicks. And if the car guys are scared and the chicks oohing and aahing I'm happy. So NO a big block is not only way to go.Thanks alot I have done some price checking building a 1197 man was it expensive.:dry:

Better buy a supply of tooth picks to go with that....you'll want them to get the bugs out of your teeth...cause you have a B.S.E.G most of the time when you'r riding it.......sounds like my kind of bike:cheer:

i'm hoping that this setup will get me between 60-70 ft/lbs, and around 100hp.
that would be fun. ride the bike to work every day, then track it on the weekends. 8^)
