All looks good Ando , good your having a good run with it. Have you had a chance to get down the track yet?
Good stuff Ando!!
What was trap speed like?
What was the sixty foot time?
Sounds like your too aggressive & overpowering the track, if you had a adjustable VPC & knew how to custom set up for track conditions would not have to worry about the rear tyre, but very few understand how to do it & in your case would only be worth the trouble if you really truely want to impress at the track with times, but I think you are enjoying your riding only go to track once in while for fun. Could ride the clutch a bit to help traction. But fantastic for just a once in a while at track.
Good on you
Ando improve on that 60ft time! Hope you used first gear off the line?
Yes trapp speed is speed at the end of quarter, if your wide open should be getting a faster trapp speed, but because you don't go to track often that's a great effort, it is harder than people think to do a quick time on a bike, easy in car's hard to do on a powerful MC that's why I love it.
good luck Ando! you have a 10 second bike there no worries! 120mph trap speed tells me that , it's just you need to get everything right, but most import thing is work on getting that 60ft time down but don't try too hard as you make mistakes trying to go harder. That bike will do 1.7, 1.6 sixty foot with out even trying I think Daddyracer56 could do 1.4 or might have been 1.45? But he is a rider prides himself in how he rides. You will do 1.6 no worries then if you do everything right 10's . But don't give it too many revs off the line as you just want it so you can ride in run 10's ride home forget about lowering tyre pressure just run same pressure as you run on street ride it like your just going off the lights quick. People tell me they have clutch slip, so they go get a different clutch but seen em at track next week better clutch but no better times, thing is clutch slip not a bad thing at drags I done quicker times with a slipping clutch than with's clutch that had no slip, I just had to hold it Ina lower gear over the line, ifi put in top revs just went up ( all to do with load I think) but try to get out hole quick n straight shift quick try n hold lowest gear you can through speed traps as less times you shift the better, every shift takes time. One & two, there goes a second. Good luck at it you will have a grin a mile wide when you see you ran 10
got hold of a leak down tester today and pretty quickly ripped the plugs outa the RXBOB
pretty happy with the results
Did the rear Jug first [URL=http://s307.photobucket.com/user/Ando1450/media/IMAG5794_zpsjh5iwup2.jpg.html][/URL]
Then The Front Jug [URL=http://s307.photobucket.com/user/Ando1450/media/IMAG5797_zpsrjxsox7s.jpg.html][/URL]

Seems my gauge is shit
went and played gauge swaps and this is what I end up with
This is indicative of both cylinders just only got pics of one so it actually looks like 5%

You want close to 100psi pumping in there for the leak down then have 5% for an awesum leakdown.
95% seal good Ando, but like you say gauge's not always spot on, so like to double check find out where 5% is going, pull a bolt out the case where you time listen if hear air rings, take air cleaner off open throtle listen , intake valve, same up pipe.
Hey Ando,
I was looking at some 120" Hurricane Head n piston n tb manifold cam kit Cam looks bit aggressive for street but I must say if you want more HP that's what you want & I think cheap!!!!!
