Hey Ckahleer -- what did drilling your slide 7/64" do?

Drilling a larger hole in the slide should make the slide lift quicker, but I didn't notice any difference.

Speedo correction thing??

2009+ models you can buy a speedometer calibrator to correct speedometer error. For earlier models it woun't work.

SpeedoDRD or similar, I assume. That's what I am using.

And to be honest 140 on a 650 single sounds like a stretch. That would be a land speed record for a 650 single cylinder un faired bike. Keep it real.

come down this november and play there are guys rollinf 120 on the lake bed s on 450x's once you leave the realm of what you do as a consumer with bikes and get in to big money racing there is a whole diffrent kind of bike to ride, i probably have 60-80k wrapped up in 2 bikes and 6 motors (3 each) and thats small potatos i know the honda A bike has 150k+ in it, and don't say thats not reasonable there is no reason to this sport it makes no sense at all i mean look at it this way a big Trophy truck 800K-1.2M to win a check for 4K? we do it for the dream of winning not the win itself
