    I'll ring you on Monday about the drags (and your engine). Given you carry much less ballast than me and your bike has much more power, i'd be guessing you'd run mid to high 13's at over 100mph with 13T/48T. I run high 14's at 95mph on the quarter with 14T/48T.

    Yes, I can tell your engine characteristics are vastly different to a stock motor. I'm running a C engine in an A frame, which is fine while I learn about engines etc. I'm ashamed to say my ZXR250A street bike is quicker on the quarter than my drag bike!

    I don't run a muffler as such. Just the headers and the standard 4 into 1 collector. I'm new at this so I still have a lot to learn and I'm an amateur in every sense of the word including funding so any advice is always welcome. The engine has good compression and I've just done the valve clearances. Playing around with jetting at the moment. Will call you to discuss drags.
