Great stuff. 
Use some tie downs to lock the front end down solid. Will give you an extra second.
"So we used the strap, which looks almost like a normal tie down, but has special mounts for attaching to the forks. These also require care in using, it needs to be routed correctly over the triple trees or frame to work correctly. The supplier of the strap should be able to advise you of the best way to fit it."

Not sure but I might have found a culprit as well....
That 74-85 mph wobble that we get was gone on my drive home and during the race.....Not sure but the wobble might have something to do with the front shocks....My first two runs when it yanked right in the air it came down fast and hard on the forks both times.....On the way home doing normal 72-80mph speeds not even a hint of a wobble....Maybe normal driving tweaks the forks a tad and every now and then they need a major compressing to tweak them back....
Thanks for the love

I will be back out this Friday for one last time......
Ill have my 13t sprocket on if all goes right with the chain....I was crossing the line at 78-81mph and my track time was showing 71.15 mph.....So the 8mph plus error is true...Since Ive had this bike up to 87 mph and not close to the redline...My guess is I can cross the line at 95mph aka 85+ mph.....14 mph has to get the bike into the low 15z....After that Im through....Just gotta go 1 more night and get some better video....

PS...Can you say I love this bike...1 payment made and 2100 miles...lol...Just love it...
