View Full Version : bike runs

OK, so first of all, if you dont think its "safe" or whatever, just ignore this. But, Im curious if there are any bikes out there who want to do some roll-runs with my car. We might even want to video them for a compilation we are doing.
I dont care what displacement they are, and Im not saying I expect to be able to beat everything. I am curious to see where I stand on this, however :goodjob:
I know its getting cold and its not the most comfortable weather for bikes, so I certainly understand not wanting to be out riding fast in the winter. But, if we have any takers here, it could be fun.
Let me know on PM.

"...who want to do some roll-runs with my car. " ;)
Actually, either is fine I guess, its just so hard to find a good dig place, and the cold roads really make it more difficult for cars.
what are you and andy doing?

Not too sure on the details just yet, but I will let you know.
His car is fast... His car should be in the 10 sec range, as well as my bike. But then I never dragged my bike before.

what strip? i haven't seen one yet that will let a bike and a car run at the same time.

nope you will never run a car at the strip. plus for commerce you need a leather jacket and boots for a 600. full leathers for everything else.

if you or anyone is looking to do something less "formal," let me know ;) Dig or roll I guess, but rolls are easier to setup. It should be fun...
Ive seen bikes run at SDR, but I dont remember if they will run a bike and a car at the same time. i dont know why not though.

How about "con?" I saw an earlier post where you said something about cars not being any competition. Here is your chance to embarass one :goodjob:

I'm no jackass, I meant your average ricer. I'm well aware of two supras who I wouldn't be able to touch from a dig and I don't have the launch skills to beat on the track.

List your setup/modifications
single turbo and supporting fuel/bolt-ons.
6 speed.
stock bottom end.

Mine isnt one of the more insane ones youve probably heard of. I just want to try on some bikes and see where I stand. We'd be doing rolls, so launching it isnt a critical. I dont like to drag race my bike either really.
Plus, we dont have any bike vids for SM.
What do you ride btw?

lol, why would you want to race my car with my bike? why not race your own bike? are you scared of tearing your bike up by running it full throttle? Im sure you do that pretty often anyway (at least I do.)
what cc is yours, anyway? I cant tell from the pic. i had an 2000 gsxr750...sweet bike. Id like to get another one for a track bike.

oh shiat, didn't realize it opened that early. Even if I leave right after work (4:30) I still might not be able to make it due to traffic. guess I'll see you guys at the track.
shooting you contact info via pm so I'll be able to locate you guys once I'm there.
