well... the bike is always running well, but since the last time Mario and I raced in Pismo, the bike has lost another 25lbs. Well, actually that was me who lost it [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

The only thing I've added was the new juice switch which is working out like you wouldn't believe. Just too sweet for words. Can't wait to line up with Mario again and see what my pig will do.

Hey Mario, I'm going to break the 260 barrier this week. Yesterday I weighed in at 261. I hope to see 258 or 259 by the end of the week. Almost 75lbs..... who'd a thunk it.

 

congrats Big D. I really don't think you are very big around. You are deffinately tall but I thought you were pretty thin when I saw ya. But good luck. I am hoping to do the same with mine. Loose my weight to give my bike more HP for now until Seth is done with his build then it is my bikes turn. They will both stay stock bore with some fun stuff in em. Can't wait. Seth will be doing his probably in January. Mine will probably be a year from then.

 

no idea how the 70lbs I've lost translates into lengths on a quad.... but I'm sure it's a good thing.

Between the weight loss and getting things dialed in since PISMO, things are pretty good. Don't know if I can get mario on the ninja-mobile, but I'm gonna try it. I really need to be getting some new tires (more paddles) and see where that puts me.

 

Mike, You better eat some spagetti or something. You are loseing tooo much weight!! [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif[/img]


-70 lbs should net you 3-4 bike lengths.

 

That mean that I should probably lose another 100 to keep up with you.....

Na... I think I'm about done... 2 - 3 more pounds and that's about it.

 

HA HA I know that 520!! THat was on thanksgiving weekend last year still some of the fastest kfx's I ever seen run!!

 

xr650r where do you ride i know of a few n/a bikes that would challenge you.. Hell I will have a 550 dual sport motor in a quad done by next spring and i will take you up an a race.

 

I just picked up my new 2006 Raptor 700R with an R1 conversion. Very professionally done. Stock dual exhaust so very quiet. I will post pics this weekend. 185 Hp at the crank and only about 30 lbs up from an OEM Raptor. I hope she rips![img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

This thing even has custom graphics that say 1000R that cover the 700R on the Yellow & Black SE decals. It literally looks like a model Yamaha would build from the factory.

I will be breaking it in this weekend. I will give a report when I get back.

 

Since no one wants to give up there secrets on there new builds, and its very quite around here. Lets ask another question.

What are you hoping will show up on your bike in the next few months??

For me my wish list is very long. Most of which includes abunch of lightweight drag parts, paddles, nos, and a few other goodies.

Shooting for mid 4's in 300ft. with me on it. Is it possible??
