I think you did well there! considering your bike is at a disadvantage of 400cc and probably ~30bhp?

And it was your first go...

good on ya.

yeah it is bloody hard work trying to keep an eye on the revs and another eye on the lights Shocked

I was too scared of flipping the bike on the launch I think thats why I left my right leg down Laughing

but after seeing other videos now I think I could go back and do a better time! some of the hayabusas there were just liquifying their tyres at the launch and not wheelying at all Confused

but other bikes like the V-Twin sports bikes would climb up the chain as soon as the green light flashed Confused

it is weird how the power comes on determines how the bike will react in a split second from a dead start! I was happy to run a mid 11 second pass though Very Happy

I wonder what I could get if I experimented with shifting points at different RPM Wink

I think you did VERY well there mate. To say you was up against an R1.
The R1 was probably as light as your bike too Laughing

I bet Daves Italjet dragster 172 wouldnt be far behind that, Im sure theres a few 172cc runners which can get in the Low 12s on the 1/4 mile.
