Hi alrg500 and welcome to the site!

It'd be awesome to see pics of the drag bike, for sure!! You have to upload your pics to photobucket, imgur or facebook... a site like that and then link them in the thread here.

:cheers:

That looks great. Wasn't sure what to expect when I first clicked...
I've gotta ask about that exhaust. Even though I'm assuming it wouldn't fit a stock bike lol
What kind of power does this make?

Exhaust is just a 2 into 1 and a straight pipe with no silencer. does sound nice.  :)

Went to race at Drachten last weekend, timing ticket over the 1/8th

7.37 @ 149kmh  :icon_eek:  with nitrous added. should be well into the 11's when we get to run over the 1/4.

Have you got it running a 2 into one exhaust?( that's waht the photo looks like)
I reckon with the 180deg crank a 2 into 2 full tuned lengths is better to reduce phase problems. Doesn't matter a lot on a street bike but on a drag bike could be good for a few tenths.
