its been a while since i posted.. lets just say the bike and me were out of comission for a while but guess what im back and better than ever... went to the track last night and gave the ole 600 a few runs.. new mods include a m/t slick and a front slick.. only problem is i still have some fuckin bugs i cant seem to work out.. i still get some bad wheel hop off the line even after adjusting the wee bars several times dunno what to do..... but here r my latest #'s


2nd pass
r/t .3966
60ft 1.4812
330ft 4.0146
1/8 6.1420
1/8 mph 114.65

3rd pass
r/t .4525
60ft 1.4655
330ft 3.9929
1/8 6.1377
1/8 mph 114.36

im sure most of u know the mods done to the bike but if u dont feel free to ask.. i strongly believe if i can get the bike to stop the wheel hop and actually go str8 ill b well into the 5.7-5.8 range.. but man this bike launches hard for a 600 its a fuckin rush http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif some kid got video of it last night but i have no way of gettin in touch with em.. so in the next week or so ill try and get the track manager(close friend) to get some video footage for me so i can post up for all u cats ...

poll question,.,.

1. should i continue with the 600 motor?
2. drop a 1000 motor in?
3. go get a new 1000 or a busa?

my bike did a lot of wheel hop on bars.. i resolved it by lowering the bars, if they are too high it will do a catapolt sort of thing on the back tire and cause all kinds of issues.. Also i dont remember if you did have a strap but ya need one with bars, turn the compression all the way down, change tire pressure,

remember if your using a strap, you need to recheck your bar height every time you release the strap... just a half inch more on the strap side completeing changes the height of the bars..

well im only runnin 7psi so i know its not that..and the bars are only about 2" off the ground maybe less.. and no i dont run a strap.. was told u cant and shouldnt..

pingle suggests running a strap, otherwise you get too much rebound from the front.. dont know why someone would have told you not to use a strap.... I did it without and with and prefer the weight transfer you get with the strap on.. MUCH BETTER IMO

it makes sense yes.. but it also states in the nhra rule book that if u run bars u cant run a strap.. speaking of which i need to get my nhra license now that im runnin way below the 6.39 limit http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

How'd you get the 600 to run like that without a 1000 or busa motor that's a very impressive time

its all in gearing, bars, hooking, and a nice shot of of saucy stuff..

dont forget the rider .. geez :-p

I say drop the 1000 motor in. Lighter bike, than a Busa or a 1000, and a bigger motor than ur 600

i just dropped a 1000 motor in mine and i dropped a full 1.3 seconds off my quarter mile time well worth the $1600 i spent on the motor.... and very easy to install thanks for hybrid racing.

ya im leanin towards the 1000 motor.. but ive heard u still have to do some frame work to make it fit.. how much did that run ya and what did it consist of? i can get a 1000 motor ecu and all for 600 bux.. and only has 1500 miles.. but like i asked.. what all is it gonna take to get it mounted.?

Whats happin man havent heard from ya in awhile I say get rid of the bars sissy boy and ride that thing http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/bounce.gif Just messin with ya anyhow them are some good numbers, as far as the 1k motor goes there was someone on here awhilke ago that was sellin the brackets for the conversion for a pretty decent deal do a search and see what yopu come up with.

Put the 1000 motor in and take off the sissy bars.. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

And I would speed over your buddies House kick His door in and give Him the $600 for the motor and harness..Its a steal!! http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/grin.gif

thats where the engine brackets are. I want to try that with my 750. Anybody no about a 1000 cam in a 750.

Not sure about that but I know that they put the 750 intake cam on the exhaust side of the 1000 and I also heard at another board that you can use the intake cam off a 03 or newer 1000 and it is even better but not 1000% sure about that,if go here Schnitz technical info (http://www.schnitzracing.com/technical_corner.htm) It has all the cam specs as well as a bunch of other info.

Oh actually it says to use both intake and exhaust cams off the 1000 for the 750.

well if i do go with the 100 i def. wouldnt use stock cams.. id go ahead and drop in forged pistons.. and have some custom grind cams for the nos... even tho they have a kit for the swap still id like to know how much work it consists of to make the 1000 fit.. i found a guy with a 1000 says it needs new bearings and thats it.. he wants 300 for the motor no elc... think thats a good deal?

the motor swap is pretty simple especially if you have the full wiring harness and switches check the 96 thru 99 board there's a write up on how to do it thats where i got my inspiration ... can be done in a weekend with the right skill level and tools..

well unfortunately i have an 01.. so that board wouldnt help me much

Well if it needs new bearings (i am assuming rod bearings) then the crank will need to be repaired. Bearings don't just go out with out taking out the crank. Have the crank inspected. If you just put in new bearings you will be putting in new bearings again real soon.
The motor will bolt right in with the brackets. Then you just swap out the wiring harness, ecu, and gauges. You can use your 750 gauges, but the rpm will not read right.

That is a really good deal on the motor if it just needs the crank fixed and new bearings. What year is the motor and how many miles?

it cost me about 1700 for everything, $1600 for the motor and 120 for the mounts and took about 30 mins to get it installed and was riding it in about 3 hours after i started. i already had the 600 motor out because i blew it up (twice) that is why i did the swap. that is why it took so little time. it only takes about 30 mins to take it out and 30 to put it in, and about 30 mins to grind off enouph engine mounts to make it fit perfect.

I'm really not trying to bust your balls here.....
but a 10 sec 1/4 seems pretty slow for a 1000 stretched, strapped, and lowered??

ur right lurk.. leave it to u to call someone out :-p hell i think my 600 is faster than that.. but then again it all still comes down to the rider so maybe hes still learnin ... so nothing has to b welded? it all bolts right up? hmm.....

7 psi, way to low for your setup hell i run more than that on my bike that 60' 1.2's start more like 9psi. you want to run as much air as you can without spinning plus it will help your top end speed.

You should buy the engine from your buddy. The wiring harness,ecu,and repair for the other engine will set you back more than the $300 U save. If that guy improves his 60 footer he'll do alot better

im from colorado if i were at sea level i would be running low 9's.. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/flipa.gif http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/flipa.gif

ya prolly true but.. im doin this with a 600 !!!! http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/smile.gif

dont forget your 600 is Geared for fast 1/8miles... if they are optimized for 1/8.. your bike will stop accererating before you hit a 1/4... it wont be that fast .. make sense?

Lurk, not everyone is experienced at drag racing, its easier for people to learn fast curves than drag racing... once the rider learns moderation and balance... he will be fine but until then.. im just happy people are racing.. http://www.gixxer.com/forums/images/graemlins/thumb.gif

ya and my bike is overgeard even for the 1/8th im gonna try new combos and c what happens then maybe ill go to a 1/4
