Meant to post this back at the end of summer, this was around mid-August...I'm slow!

Pretty cool to line up with the only other GEN2 known in our area, that's me and Turbo Ghost! We had a ball that night!

That was my first time through a tree...have pity...my best out of 5 runs was 10.726 @ 120.18. :)

Nash Flash, DD clutch mod, airbox mod w/lid removed & K&N, no cat, Delkevic 4into2.

Good runs, takes time to get use to the tree, track what RPM to leave at. I had basically the same mods MAB w/K&N, DD, Akrapovic mid pipe with stock cans and Nash Flash. No quick shifter or straps. After about the fifth time at the track I dipped in the nines, running a 9.98 @ 135. I only weigh about 165 with gear on. Keep on and you will bring those times down. Concentrate mostly launching the bike and the better 60' the better your ET.

I'll keep trying, absolutely! Reaction time on that run was .110 and the 60' was 1.771. I didn't heat the tire before launch on any of the runs, I'll see if that helps me the next time we go. I was launching around 4,500 if I remember correctly. I've dropped 10 pounds since those runs...that's gotta help! 😂
 
This was my second time at the track with this bike. My last time I was getting mid 10s and I was really hoping to break into the 9s. However, I couldn't buy a hook-up! I had no problems with traction the last time and could not figure it out until I headed home. After I hit my first bump on the highway I realized my problem. I had been playing around with my rear suspension and had it cranked all the way firm! TN-Max destroyed me all night long! Our last run was the best though! He ran a 10.744 at 123.17 and I ran a 10.889 at 126.13. His 60' was 1.823 and mine was 1.862. I love a close race! Next year we'll see what happens.
As for mods, I'm not really sure overall. I personally have done nothing to it. I know it has the guru flash and a vance and hines csone full system. No apparent airbox mods. I'm 6'2", 230lbs. She's a big girl but, she can dance!
 
Cool, I dropped to about 20 psi in the rear. Leaving about 4500 also. Notice my 60' was 1.62 that's what put me under 10.0. I was heating the tire but not extremely. Just be careful when heating the tire and leaving over 4k cuz it'll carry the front for a while. At least it did with me.

I had actually just tightened my suspension all the way the day I ran the nine. Don't know if that helped but at my weight with the rear suspension tight it would not absorb at the launch. I would think it would shoot you out quicker???
