New Drag Strip Mods

[Dakkine2]

So I've been hittin up the drag strip for the past few months now and decided it was time for some new mods. Just added a few thing to hopefully get me down the track a little quicker. Hoping to cut my 60' times down.

Spencer Cycle's 2"-7" swingarm extensions
Spencer triple tree
Spencer Adjustable lowering links
Top Gun undertail
Galfer HH front pads
Vortex gas cap
EK ZZZ chain
PBI 45 rear sprocket

The strap somewhat limits the weight transfer thus harder to wheelie.And it looks badass!

Front is lowered 1 1/4" and have had the strap installed, just not strapped in the pic. I haven't had a chance to run it yet.

Thanks, Todd. Me neither, but riding on the street around here is getting very dangerous. Bike has only seen the track for the last 4 or 5 months.

The undertail is a Extreme Graphics top gun that was given to me by a friend. It was anniversary orange so I sanded it and spray painted it black with a couple of coats of clear. Looks ok.
I rode the bike around the block last night and already rubbed the undertail. I've got my rebound adjustment set almost to 0. I'm gonna mess with it this week and see what I can figure out.
You must also remember, I'm 6'8" and weigh 315lbs. You will probably be able to get away with lowering the rear a little more than me. I'm probably at 1 1/2- 1 3/4 in the rear and it probably will rub on launches.
That being said, my best time is 10.7something with a 1.9 60' with stock wheelbase and just a strap on the front. I'm still a
