Default Going to track this weekend. 140hp street bob.

Well I've been wanting to get this thing to the track before I ever even had it running this spring. The season flew by. Didn't get to do as much riding as I'd like, just over 4k miles on the new setup and loving it. I realized time was running out for this season and found an opportunity. Me and the ol are going away to Maine for my birthday this weekend and I decided to throw the bike in the truck and make New England dragway in Epping nh on the way. Just a test and tune. I got the bike all set up. Put the stock 12" shocks back on, lowered the tubes in the trees 2" and put a strap on it. Also put a super reduced reach solo seat on to put my 6'2" 250 lb *** up on the tank and help keep the front end down. Bike makes 140 hp sae. Weather should be low 60s and good air, should make more power than that there. My goal for this bike was any 10 sec pass. With my big *** on it, not much practice and foot shifted with no shift light or tach I'm not expecting it to meet that goal first time out. I'd be satisfied with low 11s.

It ain't a bolt on. Wouldn't recommend attempting without a bunch of spare parts and access to a lathe/machining tools.

Interested to see what kind of time you run. I'd love to run my bike down a strip some day, just for the hell of it. I'm not packin' anywhere near 140hp though.

Hammer down is right. Gopro will be on board if tech allows it. I'll have the ol take pics anyway, maybe vid.
