My bike - 05 yamaha r6, full exhaust, and power commander

First race ever on a bike, raced an sv650, and mind you I didn't even know how to launch nor ever watched anyone launch a bike. He took me by about 2 buses and I lost probably by about 2 cars.

Next race when I was explained how to launch was against my buddies 05 gixxer, he took me by about a bus out of the hole ( I only launched around 4-5k) and he ended up winning by about a car but I was pulling HARD.

Raced the sv650 again, launched again around 4-5k but this was one of my best races, front wheel stayed about 6''s to a foot I'd assume off the ground the whole way threw first, he got me by about a bus out of the hole but ended up pulling just ahead of him as we hit the 8th pole aka 1/4mile.

Raced the gixxer again, again at around 4-5k, he got me by about a bus again out of the hole, but I only lost by about a bike and a half, pulling again supppper hard up top.


I've done a few practice runs since then launching at about 7k or so and feels a lot better, just need to keep the front wheel down.
So yeah..... Bump to this bike tales thread.

Yeah I used a bus because it was quite a bit of length and past 2 cars :p


I'm just all about the street racing so anyone who wants to go I'll race. Even if I know I'll lose, it is still fun.
