Looks like the front of the bike has been lowered some. What do you run for fork internals?

Does your class allow mid controls? Do you think that would help you at all?

I'm a big drag race fan. Used to race my 66 Mustang in High School. Haven't got the guts to try to bike though.

front end is stock with exception of progressive mono tubes. Brocks Performance fork strap. pulled down  - 1-2" .
class just requires floor boards. you can use air shift if ya like. everyone else runs air shift and either lets there feet fly back against the bags,or has rear pegs to use instead of sitting back up straight and shifting. I foot shift because I belive it is what has kept this trans healthy for over 90,000 miles and hundreds of passes....and it just has cool factor  :smiled:

Had a good 1/8 mile 6.5 @ 112 mph
1/4 mile was 12.0 /126 . I let out about 900 ft , when the intercooler mount broke and the inlet hose came off the bonett .
