Couple Questions for you drag guru's. There is absolutly no reason my That my bike should not be able to pull a 2nd gear launch at the strip or at the dunes. I've had it dyno tuned and same thing...could it be to lean on bottom? Should I richen the needles? It has plently of power If I start in first. Or should i throw a bigger front sprocket on and keep starting in first? currently have 15 41 gearing. thanks.22x11x8 10 pdl. Plenty of hp

Drag seen Is all new to me. Would a 16 41 first gear start be faster or slower then a 1541 2nd gear start? Trying to get this thing dialed in for the hq ride. I Know alot of shit to factor in...but typically which would be faster?

Do you clean it out before you attempt a launch? Still didn't mention what size the dumps are drilled to. Just because you drill the mains doesn't mean the dump is gonna flow the right amount. If you got a 0.120" dump and a 0.125" main, that's still basically a 0.120" main. If you have a huge dump tube, a smaller main isn't going to help a lot at part throttle.
