My scooter is the best of all bestes1 I guess my last post didnt make it, I dont see why, it doesnt smell and worse than all the bullshit I been reading in thread.

2nd gear issues are due to rider. Undercut tranny and billet forks are nice and allow the bike to shift very nice though. Ya might pickup hardened shift shafts from Brock while yer at it.
The yosh pipe is not a hp/tq maker on the Busa. The large airbox mod(if your sure it has the "large" mod) is too much as well, especially considering your weight. It really hurts tq. Yeah, the dyno was a little low. I dyno'd mine(04) with totally stk airbox(flapper still active even) and stk exhaust(cans removed on dyno) and it pulled 157 to the wheel with 98ft/lb of tq. Most yosh equiped Busa's properly tuned are in the mid 160's.
The configuration you mentioned above is capable of low 9's at your wieght, but your gonna need to get your 60's in the 1.4's. Your wheelbase is certainly capable of supporting that as is the tire.
Be sure to gear for your wieght. Also be sure to get a look-see at the clutch. Stk clutch hub(the factory lockup part) is not gonna allow you to cut good 60's with your weight and it being stretched.
If i were you, i'd also run all LONG stacks in the airbox as well. Hurts hp slightly up top but will add down low and in the midrange where a "big guy" can benifit most.
Sorry for the threadjack guys. Was not trying to take away from the original post!

2 Stangs - I'm not hurt, it just seems it's a round -e-round of posts. I used to live at the strip as well. I've seen what the above mentioned bikes can do, I'm not a magazine racer in the least bit.
RJ - Not sure if you get my point, which has been the same the whole thread or not. I hope you get what I'm saying. I've said it several times in the thread, I'm not a (insert brand here) guy. I'm going off of real numbers and it isn't adding up. Not saying that it will never happen. I've beaten several sport bikes even on highway rolls on my last Max. Shouldn't have, but did.
KJ - I thought you were joking but wanted to make sure haha.
Birdofprey - I can start another thread if you want so we don't hijack this one. - EDIT - I started one in the General BS section. http://www.vmaxforum.net/showthread.php?p=47337#post47337
Lankee - We already know everything you have is faster bar none.
All - Read my sig, it's still the truth.

Yeah hell yeah my scooter is supposed to run low 9's at 160 MPH I cant verify this though, but its what I been told:confused2: It also has a race mode that is supposed to drop the ET by a whole second.
Hey no worries Mate! I was just pokin fun at ya!
I've been reading this thread. and I think RJ's summary is about right. made me laugh.
I say speculation is great and debating is fun sometimes. But it's nothing to get all worked up and mad about.
The day will come when a new 09 VMAx rolls up to the line next to a Busa, And that's When the Real Fun will begin.
Until then... :confused2: why get all worked up over it.

Sorry, I read all the other posts, but couldn't concentrate. WTF is a sack of potash!!??:ummm::biglaugh:
baahahahahhahaha!!
I was wondering when someone was gonna see that! hahahahah..... it seemed to fit at the time...
hahaha.... well everyone contributes in their own little way i suppose....:confused2:
I just love this prose:
"
We've ridden them all. The ZX-14. The Vulcan 2000 with its 2053 cc v-twin. The Hayabusa, and the Honda Rune with its 1832 cc flat six fed by a half dozen throttle bodies. Nothing leaves a stop light like the new VMax. The VMax is laying down more than 100 pound/feet of torque at the rear tire before inline-fours like the ZX-14 and Hayabusa have finished clearing their throats. Like many things in life, it is something you have to experience to fully appreciate and understand."

Yep, and with my Gen 1 I could smack around a CBR600RR at a stoplight, too. However, if I let him wind it up, at all, he'd kick my ass. I'll show you the T-shirt, sometime.
