I think I asked you this before.
When I built Quicksliver My goal was to build a bike to run 7.2sec at 200+ mph........
Best yet.. 7.5 at 195 .....Still not there yet.
What do you want horndog?

My goal for the 08/09 season is to crack mid 9s. I cant say for the following year as I have to be realistic and consider budget constraints but in the perfect world I would be chasing 8s with a turbo kit onboard.
Given some of the other Busas at the track here are getting low 9s with stock wheelbase and a 84mm bore kit, I figure I can get close to that if I am smart about the work I do this break. Port cleanup, intake cam in exhaust and high comp pistons are definately on.
Some high performance coatings, stroke crank, oversize exhaust valves, methanol, stand alone ECU are still ideas I am playing with for the future. There is so much info on the web that it can actually make it harder to know which are the better options.
There is no strong performance without a little fanaticism in the performer
