...and I know you will admit that the Stroker bike is built for a different reason that me and you... we can still dune... it was killer fast but I always wonder how me or my dad or you would do with a lightweight setup like that??? Not taking anything away from GP racing at all!!! that is a killer bike... and imagine on NOS???

Judging from those 3 vids. I think the 780 was MUCH faster than what was showed. He clearly had problems going through the whoops. He launched a little late as well. Who was the pilot?

Duners, we are. Although yours is getting closer to drag status every day. How many yards long is your swingarm now?[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Speed was the pilot on the 780 and YES 100% agreed it was KILLER fast!!!

and todd said that he could't nail it through the whoops so it was a problem for sure, then when he punches you can see it pull strong... it was beating some banshees on banshee hill too and it was really moving!!!

it is still a +6, I threw away my drag handlebars and went back to stock and got a Barker pipe, I want dune fronts though instead of my stock heavy tires... that's not too extreme is it??? I'm thinking about running the wars with my six pack cooler on the bike... seriously[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]

Default LTE versus Barker pipes

Hey guys...Just got bck from the drags at 339th avenue and I-10....What a great day...I met a guy there that had a 686(self built)ported...10.75 to 1 piston like mine +4 swingarm 22 inch 8 paddle haulers but he had the web cam and LTE,s on his bike and he said he was running race gas...I'm thinking "What dumb fckn luck"...2nd gear start...neck and neck..as soon as I hit 3rd we stayed beside each other for about 10 feet, then I just walked right by him...Got him by 4 lengths easy evry time...I can say that the Barkers definatly pulled hard when I hit third..We raced 4 times and I got him all four times...Thats all I can tell ya...Seems like a good mid range and high end pipe. I am running a 13/43 sprocket and I did not ask him what sprockets he had. He looked like he weighed about 175 to 180.He was totally impressed with the Barkers...I must of had 8 guys come up and ask me where I got those....Hope this helped for now...I am not knocking LTE because I never had them so I don't know. As far as ridability, I had no problems figuring out the fact that the pipes were there.IMO the heat shield could be about 2 inches longer towards the rear cause my riding boot got a little melt spot on it on the left side pipe.
