Whoa slow down turbo, so many unnecessary callouts in one post let me digest hahaha
The 131 is still in break in miles and its been down for awhile as I blew out the tapered clutch hub on the Pro clutch and couldn't find a replacement so I am converting over to splined now. Hopefully that will be done this week and I can put another 1,000 miles on and start dialing in the tune better
Ill run with you next time Im down in AZ, should be April, but for bragging rights or drinks, no real doe. Theres a different level of commitment needed to create a maintain hardcore drag bikes that I flatly am not interested in. But I do like to go fast and race so why not.
Nice vids but dam I wanted to see the mini fuelies at the end run too haha
And why wouldn't Jake be my real name haha Im hoping that one was just a joke and not a real question

Your Big Bad 131" against my little 126"-N/A- ALL DAY. FXR vs FXR.
Sounds fun. PM me a few weeks ahead when you are gonna be in AZ and I'll be there. I will have someone film us but make sure you bring someone also as it will be posted here on HDF.
Usually-no cash means a ***** EXCUSE MAKER, but since you have an FXR I will make an exception. Lets do it at Wildhorse (formerly Firebird) http://www.racewildhorse.net/ but- we can also run in Tucson. Also, use any fuel you want, but no wheelie bars, slick, nitrous (trust me, we know how to check), turbo, or any other cheat. These are STREET bikes.
It's a decent track, I've run there, and there should be zero excuses.
That means starting right now, as you accepted.
I live for this ****, so you are officially on the clock. Pump that sucker as nasty as you want. Since you are afraid to put up cash, you are gonna pay other ways, trust me.
Can't wait-
Bring your friends.

Sounds like fun to me. It will be the same bike/set up I ride the 800 miles to AZ on. I'm no hardcore dragster like I said earlier, nor to I have any confidence in winning against one haha but if a local can help set up some good races at good tracks and maybe even pick up some good pointers from someone with the experience on the strip all for beer money its well worth it to me.
This is all in fun for me but on the real lets ease off on the "*****" and "scared" comments. **** can get misunderstood and take wrong turns real quick on the internet.
Im all for friendly sh*t talking, but there's certain words I don't use/take as friendly

Love my EZ's-
Add all the lift, compression and cubes you want for street use..fires first time on stock cranking system all day...no matter what the conditions.
Compression releases have served me well in the past as well, but sometimes shut early (unless modified) and one may have to be held down thru a firing cycle by hand. If they shut early on a big inch, high compression motor, your battery and starter just get hammered by all that compression (hence I ran two batteries for years on my street bike and very strong starter for insurance). The old lead batteries fade fast on repeated hot start re fires over and over (unlike the new lithiums) and years ago I would get stuck somewhere when I was just figuring everything out. Try push starting a 131" big comp Harley motor-not fun.
Anyway, EZ's have made my life a lot easier, just turn the key, fire, and go.

Nowadays, 90% of the time when a guy rolls up on me and guns his motor or tries any kind of BS, I just smile and watch him run from me. Just been there so many times, it gets boring. Import, Hotrod HD guy, don't matter. Only in certain situations (taunting, questioning my character, spreading BS stories, do I make an exception, and you got my attention.
Now, remember, you have a bigger motor (131"), and I got less cubes and 40K on my well worn street motor-pump gas-NO GAMES. You can do anything you want to your bike but keep it N/A,no bar, boost, or spray. Street bikes, straight up.
Reminds me of a "big bad Dyna" featured in HotBike magazine. He heard I would meet him in Sturgis, and then he said he would run a slick and nitrous. BS...now that is Chickenshit excuse train at it's finest-
BTW, show and post some videos. Lets see what you got. This should be good.
ALSO, HERE ARE TRACK REQUIREMENTS AT BOTH PHOENIX AND TUCSON, SO YOU KNOW WHAT YOU NEED. Don't matter if you rode from across town, or across Country.
I mention this as I also got an excuse from a guy offering a "500.00 bounty from any street HD who could beat him."
I called him on his BS and said lets rock, and he claimed he didn't have the proper chain guard, helmet, etc....blah, blah blah-
So, we got a closed street (no people or other vehicles-this was 15 years ago in the SFV, ALOT different now) and ran a few times. SO after I took his cash, about 20 people on each side watching (THIS IS KEY AS HE CAN"T MAKE EXCUSES OR SPIN THE BEAT-DOWN), he sold his bike and we never heard from him again....
"Motorcycles must have a chain/belt guard covering the top run of chain/belt at least to the centerline of the rear axle. All bikes must have two-wheel brakes and snap-back throttle, and functional constant-on red taillight for night drags. Bikes that run quicker than 11.0 seconds must be equipped with an ignition cutoff switch attached by lanyard to the rider, unless equipped with a functional OEM “fall-over” switch (subject to testing).
Rider must wear leather jacket, leather gloves and leather high-top (above-the-ankle) shoes. (Kevlar and other jacket materials have not received NHRA approval as of yet, therefore, jackets must be leather.) Riders of motorcycles running faster than 120 mph in the quarter mile must wear full leathers. Two-piece suits must zip together at the waist. Riders must wear a full-face helmet meeting the same Snell specs listed in the “Helmets” section above. Open-face, DOT, Shorty or Wehrmacht-style helmets are not permitted."
Riders must meet the same licensing requirements as other drivers, plus their license must display a motorcycle endorsement.
