My 09 1000
Stock wheel base it went 9.84 with a 1.57 60", just lowered with a slip on, and no tuning of any kind.
Sits exactly the same now with an arm, and -1, +2, still no tuning or other mods.

Just a question about what you said about correcting the geometry in the front. What does that mean exactly? Im about to lower my K3 using the 3 hole lowering links in the back and sliding the forks up in the front. I believe the holes in the lowering links allow the stock height, then 1 1/2", then 3". Ill be going down 1 1/2" front and back then using a front strap to stop the expansion on launching. Hoping this will help lower my et's.

Re: Post your pics/vids of what you take down the track
I managed a 9.96@146.9 last weekend on a stock 2011 thou (has a pipe & air filter only).
So aside from lowering & gearing, what are the best value for money mods I should be looking at?

Re: Post your pics/vids of what you take down the track
Just picked up a week ago. Planning on shaking it down for the first time Thursday in the 1/8th.
Used to race a 00 Honda CBR 929RR. Fastest pass in the 1/8th I had on it was a 6.70 @ 106.
