Me&My FZ6 hit the drag strip for the first time. NEW VIDEO ADDED

So for the first time i took the bike to the drag strip,Milan Dragway..
i did 5 runs only , every run i improved a little bit except the last one,,,at the last one the front came up unfortunately..

my reaction times were satisfying for a first timer but interestingly enough when i had my worst reaction time ,i did the best 1/4 mile time...

i will definitely go back on a test&tune day and will try to get better...so here are the details of my 5 runs and a video of my personal best so far

The bike has k&n filter ,pc3 usb running the stock map, -1 front sprocket
I'll definitely go back after the dynotune and custom map...

1st run : (against CBR 600RR) (i won against his 12.5771/111.99mph run)
r/t .2030
1/8 7.8100
1/4 12.1409 (110.32mph)

2nd run : (against CBR 600RR) (i won against his 13.0340/116.89mph run)
r/t .1709
1/8 7.7242
1/4 12.0160 (112.78mph)

3rd run : (against a buell) ( i won against his 15.0283/94.46mph run)
r/t .5050
1/8 7.7441
1/4 12.0431 (112.17mph)

4th run : (against a custom made chopper) (he fouled big time-see video)
r/t .5759
1/8 7.5901
1/4 11.8641 (112.75mph)

5th run : (against a 07 gsxr 600) (i lost against his 11.5310/123.99mph run)
r/t .1711
1/8 8.1839
1/4 12.4798 (112.48mph)


And here is the video of my 4th run,,,with the worst response time but a very good launch and the best quarter mile timing of my first drag experience :


the video below is my third run with the second worst reaction time,,the launch rpm is around 7k and as you will see the finish line is at the 13k of the 4th gear with 201km/h showing at the speedometer but it actually is 180km/h(112mph) according to the ticket...you'll also see the buell's big screw up after burning out half of his tires ..sorry for the shaky cam,on board one is good though

this was an event called street warriorz,,,there was a flat fee of $15 to get in,to watch or to race its up to you,,ive been watching for the last 2 years,this time i decided to participate,,,probably i could have raced up to 10 runs that day but hot girls and a bikini contest distracted me a little bit (wife recorded the video )


every wednesday night there is a test&tune day at the same strip ,,it is $25 to get in...im sure you can do more than 10 runs between 4pm and 9 pm

Re: Me&My FZ6 hit the drag strip for the first time

Woohooo! I got goosebumps watching that! I am sooooo jealous too! Very cool to see ya run the strip.

You think the -1 up front helped your final times? Just curious cause it's something I have been thinking about doing!

Again, way to go against the CBR! Was looking at getting that bike but it seems I made the right choice!
