    How much speed to you figure we lost on the 155 mph run due to wheel slip?

    Personally I'd never try to ride one that fast 😁

    Salt Flats In California. Am I missing something?

    Dang I guess that is why it's taken so long to get a record. I think I'll have to do my own tee shirt now.

    Drag Bike Build

    I can't really say. If I was to do it over I'd make sure the bike didn't weave on dry pavement. My first time at speed (164 mph) was on very wet salt which wasn't helpful. The generation one Rockets from what I've seen will weave a bit (140+ mph) with stock suspension, wheels and tires at...

    Drag Bike Build

    Kevin I'll enclose a picture of the 17 inch wheel we ran on Rob's bike..I'm not saying that wheel/tire/ suspension (frt & rear) was the main cause of the crash but I'll never run one again.

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Kevin I would recommend Brocks Performance for suspension setup. In general: Your sag is about right you could go to 9/16 inch tops. It should take about 3.5 seconds for the rear to come back up (rebound) when when fully compressed. You want a smooth rear end squat and return. You'll get...

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Let make sure I'm understanding this correctly, this quarter mile ET was using a stock motor?

    I'm editing a video on Bill drag racing his T120 and Tiger last Saturday. I'm just watching in this one.

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    I think a stock 2006 Rocket 3 is capable of a 11.7 to 11.9 quarter mile BUT with professional riders who don't have to worry breaking the bike. Riding the first generation Rocket 3 in the quarter mile is pretty hard to do well in my opinion. Mr. Bill you have improved steadily during the last...

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Your a funny boy but I guess you've forgotten the time you stripped your bags, windscreen, exhaust pipes off at the drag strip. Plus changed the fueling..It took a hour or so to put the stuff back on so you could ride it home. Same result as before😄😄 You said you wanted your 200 horsepower...

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Kevin I see your throttle hand but not your clutch hand. What has helped me in the past is keeping my throttle hand elbow up slightly. It helps me get more of full throttle sooner....it feels strange but it works. Working on the suspension will certainly keep the bike from bouncing. I think the...

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Kevin good information. Going from a 7.6330 ET to a 6.80 is a huge jump. I'm guessing you'll need to drop 60 foot time into the 1,8s, a 330 foot 4.77 would get you about 7.0 in the one eighth mile and would about 10.8 quarter mile. Good luck👍👍

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Kevin getting consistent is what you want. Now you can try different ways to improve your RTs. Sometimes I've improved my RTs and sacrificed too much and it cost me on the 60 foot. If they let you mount a couple gopros I've found the footage helpful to me to correct my mistakes. Bill...

    1/8mi drag race Touring vs the GT

    Drag racing sometimes is like hitting a golf ball perfectly. You know what to do but the slightest difference in technique changes the result tremendously. Reaction times and good 60 foot times pay big dividends down the track especially in the quarter mile as you know. Consistent reaction...
