fuck, she ios looking like a serious bit of gear mate

That is a good lookin beast.
Your bike is nice too.
The beast being your stafford

Nice power Ando! Would be a shit load of fun mate.

Good numbers. Hope ya like changing rears..lol

Can't get the smile of my dial

Good Numbers Ando, 10's easy at the track just don't try too hard , just ride like you would off the lights  hold her wide open all the way through speed trap let me know what your trap speeds are & what your 60foot was.

 

Bike died on me today, got a lift home picked up the trailer got it home found problem was on rear cylinder. Popped pushed covers and found rear intake pushed had loosed itself off.
Pulled rear lifters and popped rocker cover and everything in really good condition so re adjusted pushrods and all was good

had fun at the drags last night best I could get was an 11.3, I just could not get off the line without frying the tyre in one of the first 3 gears. Once I got going just flew down the strip and chased down all others I went up against.
180 rear tyre and will go back for another
Time 11.39
terminal speed 120.64 mph 194.15kph
reaction time 0.152
60' 1.956

660' 7.390
660' speed 1614.33kph
1000' 9.537

Well done Ando 11.3 is fucking quick mate, and trying to get all that power to the ground with a 160 rear!! fucking forget it.....(What brand of tyre you using) try to get hold of a drag radial or slick and your in the 10's bloke.

yeh have the stock Michelin Scorcher, Night Dragon may be the next tyre choice and a 180 at that

Heard a few average reports about the Night Dragon traction with decent power, shame you couldn't fit the Shinko "Hook up"

Same for me night dragons dont hook up! Good if you like doing skids.

Avon Cobras are the go with your hp Ando i cant recommend them enough they stick like shit too a blanket and outlasted the dragons.

Will look into that Avon

Wonder how many of the Night Dragon haters have actually ran one on a prepped drag strip.

On my second set of night dragons on the fatboy and i wont be changing anytime soon.
Nearly twice the milage of the dunlops. Grip is good. No flat spots at all.
Crazy mate of mine was told they were slippery and he loves doing burnouts and has destoyed many tyres within a day of having them fitted. He put one on and it gripped too much so he took it off the next day and gave it to me. I was thinking of trying the avon because i had them years ago.
Just my 2 cents worth. Cheers

I don't mind the Night Dragons. They do like a bit of heat put in them though. Having said that I don't have bad memories of the Avon brand either.

I think there's a knack to that drag racing by the way, ol mate used to do a bit. I've never bothered but might have a shot at embarassing myself in spring.

I havent been down the strip with either tyre, but on the street with a worked bike stage 4 kit i have run these tyres back to back the night dragons first then the Avon Cobras the Cobras have so much more grip its not funny.

The night dragons had good grip for the first 1500ks then were nothing more than a tyre that done skids everywhere even let go on a couple of corners for split second not cofidence inspiring, the Cobras have never let go in corners at all.

This maybe different with standard or just exhaust engine but on high performance Harley they are nothing more tha a tyre that does good skids. My rear cobra has 6800kms on it and is spent (ordering new one on tue) but to give you an idea of the grip a couple weeks ago i accelerated hard first gear on my Fat bob and the fucking thing wheel standed up to about 90 degrees! not something you would think a fatbob could do hey. ( accidental of course )

I have to admit the Night Dragon was the grippiest tyre I had on my Softail but it also wore out the quickest, but not to worried about a bit earlier wear
