Ya.... for a 550 to do low tens, that's pretty good. We used to run san angelo track. I'd clear low 9's. I'd dial in right at 9.10 with a .52 light. But here in Roswell, she'd only hit low 10's. Elevation makes a big difference. That was on an old yellow bike, not a kaw, but my Kaw will outrun her. What are you weighing in at? Around 370 lbs + rider?? i bet on a good day, with right tune, you'll hit that 9 mark. Do you have a track close to you where you can do a test and tune?
With low 10's, and the right light, I bet you'll clear 135 mph or so... 6g start, ya, wheelie bars are gonna be a must!!

Actually should be about 350lbs +rider. Were gonna go to a track in elpaso to test...not the best place...but it will work. Weve talked bout running in hobbs, carlsbad, roswell and a couple tracks in texas.

Sounds good to me. Looks like we will trailer the drag bike, my bike and my buddys bike when we go. The elpaso track sucks as it is actually part of a airport...but we will just use it for testing.
