10milmike Posted August 10, 2013 Author Report Posted August 10, 2013 Here are my time slips for the first time ever at the track. Have some tuning to do. Shit was fun as hell. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 1 Quote
SlowerThanYou Posted August 10, 2013 Report Posted August 10, 2013 Glad you had fun & good job! I know it was your 1st time. I'm curious to know where you think your tuning changes are needed? I have some ideas by looking at those 2 time slips. It would be helpful to have more information, when you get time. The 1st slip posted, the slower run. If the time stamp was correct, was after the 2nd run or the 6.71 run. You had a better 60', but something happened in the 60' to 330' range? Then it must have pulled pretty good around 330' to get the 98 mph clocking on the run. Quote

10milmike Posted August 10, 2013 Author Report Posted August 10, 2013 Yes Byran the first one I posted was my last run. I bogged out of the hole a few times. I also has a 7.58 at 99 mph. But I can't find the time slip. I am thinking I need to adjust my clutch weight. Need clutch slip. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Quote

Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 I've been around the block a time or two with these set-ups, LOL! Baseline, base/static pressure & arm weight in that order. You are missing the 1st two parts of clutch tuning critical basics! You get your slip with the base pressure. The arm weights control how & when the clutch locks up. Quote
10milmike Posted August 10, 2013 Author Report Posted August 10, 2013 Right I understand. I know u have that's why I come to for help. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Quote
possum Posted August 10, 2013 Report Posted August 10, 2013 Even with tire spin out of the hole you still managed a reasonable 60' and e.t. and mph for the first time there just to see what happen. Good job last night Capizzi. Quote
10milmike Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Posted August 11, 2013 Possum it was fun. The first two launchs were Horrible. But got better as the night want on. I had a blast. U need to set up your bike. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Quote
SlowerThanYou Posted August 11, 2013 Report Posted August 11, 2013 What pressure did you run your rear tire pressure at & how high was the wheelie bar wheel off the ground? Quote
10milmike Posted August 11, 2013 Author Report Posted August 11, 2013 The rears I had it 6 lbs each. Not sure the height will have to check when I get home. Sent from my DROID RAZR using Tapatalk 2 Quote
dozer Posted August 11, 2013 Report Posted August 11, 2013 Very nice, that mph tells you the bike makes good power. Get it to come out of the hole faster and the et is gona drop a bit. Quote
10milmike Posted August 17, 2013 Author Report Posted August 17, 2013 What pressure did you run your rear tire pressure at & how high was the wheelie bar wheel off the ground? What Psi should I be running? Also how high should my bar be off the ground? Going to the track next sat. Quote
SlowerThanYou Posted August 17, 2013 Report Posted August 17, 2013 What Psi should I be running? Also how high should my bar be off the ground? Going to the track next sat. 5 psi is our baseline, we very rarely go below that. It becomes more of a safety issue IMO. We do raise it depending on conditions. As for the wheelie bar, most work well around 1" - 1 1/4". To high & the bike will pogo & to low it will spin. Quote
