Dyno-Drag video

[Abi]

Rode out to LaCrosse WI this past weekend for the S&S 50th Anniversary Bash with all my cruiser/Harley buds. While at the speedway they had the Geico Dyno-Drag truck. After watching several Harleys and choppers my friends all talked me into putting my bike up on it. They paid the $30 so why not. After I pulled my bike around another kid with a CBR600RR jumped in. I think he knew he was going to get beat but he wanted to see what his bike could do. I've never drag raced before so I wasn't sure what to expect but man I'm glad I did it, it was great. Makes me get the itch to go to a real track and see what I can do. I'd recommend it to anyone who has never raced and wants to get a taste of the real thing. My times were 9.44, 9.33 and 9.20. Here's a video of my last run, you get three races.

I ran one of those here in Sacramento. I kept having trouble with the rollout - there is none

In a car or bike on the strip, you leave before the yellow - not so on a dyno.

Ya with these once you stage you can only move your back tire about 2 inches or you'll redlight. The kid on the CBR redlighted each time, but they tell you to keep racing to get your horsepower rating. I held my foot on the brake until green to make sure my tire didn't move.

your real results may vary.. most of the busa guys I see ride run mid to high 10's first times out.. (real track)

That's what I was thinking. This was easy. If I could get to 10 on a real track I'd be surprised.

Watched a third, fourth, and fifth time...BOY that motor sounds goooooood !!!!!!!....

$30?!?! Man, I'd be hitting that a few times. Better than any arcade game! Looks like the HP is on too from what I've been seeing everyone post. Nice way to get your bike dynoed.

Horsepower is real close.  I had my Dynod a few years ago with the Full Hindle, PC3, small air box mod, 16t front sprocket and it was at 163rwhp.

If anyone is interested here is the website with a calender of where this thing will be.

OOOOPSSSSSsssss....watched it again...my bad.

Did one couple years ago. It's a blast. Don't have to worry about front end coming up or back end going sideways. Just turn it loose and shift.

Way to rep. Bet that was low Et and top HP. for the night!
