This is a 103 with headwork and a 999 cam on higher ratio rockers. Don and Son's Cycles in Springfield Mo built the bike and I only tuned it. Purpose built street drag bike. They got a nice little street scene down there. They have city permission to run in this industrial complex on weekends., and then they rent a track once a year.

Looks like that should be enough to run the 5 mile track at Bonneville... Nice...

Learned a lot getting everything to work and then it became illegal in the province (can't be hooked up) as well as insurance won't cover you if you have installed.

A 50 shot would be like a joke on a car as far as damage goes but I've never sprayed a bike. Years back a guy at work was telling me about how he hit it on the highway and it came on so strong he totaled the bike. Now days I'm thinking they have progressive controllers.

The guys are not beefing anything up. That's the thing about nitrous. It's cheap and in reach for some. Willing to take the risk and fix it if it breaks.

What I have done several times for customers. Set them up with a 25 shot and put nozzle pre IAT. This works great for the roll on racing crowd. I suggest spraying in 3rd to pull ahead and 4th if needed but once you put a couple of lengths on the guy. He's beat. Then if you want more. We can figure out a tuning solution for your needs then.
