    Gen 2 Stock Cans & CAT – EXUP Cable disconnect

    I pretty much did the MAB, DD to clutch, delete cat with Akrapovic mid pipe to stock mufflers then Nash flash all within 2 months last year. Really a big difference and only about $1600 for everything with having the shop delete cat and install Akrapovic. Money well spent 😁

    Gen 2 Engine Development begins

    Just saw your thread and very, very interesting. From a buyers and manufactures point of view, which are rarely the same. As you have covered. What is your over all goal with your findings or do you just enjoy digging with your wisdom? Just curious cuz you have a hook in me😁

    Real nice lookin 92. Locations are different, supply and demand are different and mostly condition and mileages are different. Bottom line is you will get what a seller is worth paying for it. The more you are able to get the word and pix out there the better chance you are of getting what you...

    Post your fastest VMAX E/T 1/8 or 1/4

    On Saturday, because of getting good traction I went from very soft to a harder set up which I believe helped in launching. I just had always run it soft when riding because of me being a lite riding.

    Great number for having no mods. DD will just help grabbing gears and prolong the life of the clutch. Great idea when running stock and especially when adding mods with HP increase.

    YES, Taking it to the Nines

    I doubt if the Avon would be considered a good drag tire if you are using it for that most of the time. However it is just about done regarding tread life and I have a Shinko waiting to be put on. I will say that once the Avon is heated I have no trouble with it spinning off the line at the...

    Avon Cobra Chrome 200/55-18 which is a bit taller than the stock 200/50-18. With the lack of rubber down the center it is probably the same circumference as the stock right now however I have a Shinko Verge 011 stock size ready to put on. Which will be very soon.:)

    YES, Taking it to the Nines

    Finally dipped into 9's today at TRP. Wasn't running great up until the last run. Ran 10.1's, 10.2's, 10.3's totaling seven runs. Then on the very last run really brought the 60' time down which turned the ET into 9.98. For anyone that has not followed I just put the bike on the track about a...

    I believe I saw your runs on YouTube. What all modifications have you done to your bike? Are you running a 240 tire? Some really good runs especially from 330' to the finish.

    Hitting the strip...

    I have followed NHRA for about 30 years or so and attended many events from Maple Grove, PA, Englishtown, NJ, Richmond, VA, St. Louis(Madison, IL) and more. I have gone to the strip not to try to win money or a trophy but to see what my bike and I can do to get the best ET out of it. I am only...

    Hitting the strip...

    Thank you much and most of your list here sounds like is how I am set up. However as the bike sits it is basically a stock everyday Vmax as far chassis, suspension, wheels, tires and everything else. As stated earlier other than MAB, DD, Akra mid pipe and Nash flash. Yes I do clutchless shifts...

    Hitting the strip...

    Thank you much I did have my 85 Vmax at the strip on several occasions and it was totally stock, straight from the crate. This was back in the mid to late 80's. Had 3 CBR 1100 XX Blackbirds at three separate times and had the 01 on the strip in 2007 twice, this was the last time I had been to...

    Yes I am there, I weigh 165 suited. Not as light as Jay was, I believe I read where is was 135 when set the record in 85 with the Max. But I am at big advantage being light when trying to get a low time.
