My First 1/4

Well yesterday I went to a test and tune at Milan for my first time down a 1/4 mile strip ever and I think I did pretty good.

I'll scan and post the timeslips but my best run was 12.03 @ 113 mph.
Now I'm making excuses but this bike is a 92, has 52,xxx miles on it. My first time doing a 1/4 mile run. Conditions were VERY hot, probably 90-100 degrees out. Clutch was slipping everytime I changed gears so I may have to change that soon.




Left lane for these:

Third run was my best.
Last run is this one, I had a really good start, I have no idea why my trap speed was so low, must have been my shifting and/or the clutch.
Right lane:


And the money shot :strong: found this one the track's site.

 

NICE! any car or mortorcycle running 12s can be alot of fun on the street, canyons or just about anywhere.
btw: What was the stretched bike running?

 

Cool money shot! That's a pretty good quarter mile time even with that clutch slipping issue.

 

what ran that 8.4?

 

Yeah, I'd say if you are gonna run it at the track, change the clutch. I did some unofficial runs with mine, and while waiting to go my clutch would slip. I changed it not long after that.

 

I'll bet that was hecka fun. Good job.

 

So I forgot to post earlier but I went to the track again last week and got 11.9 finally lmao, now I can't wait to go back AGAIN and try for the 11.8's. I love the twisties though don't get me wrong.

 

Probably the CBR next to him in the first pic. Looks like a lightened, stretched, lowered drag bike to me. Woudln't want to ride THAT on the street.

 

looks like a fun day!
