Loaded up and went to the track today. Was able to run a new personal best of 10.10 at 139.8. Bike is a 2011 gsxr750 with bmc filter, cat delete, ecu, -1+2 gearing, lowered and strapped. I am 175 lbs, and the bike weighed 382lbs. Here is a video of a 10.16 pass from today.
Awesome run. Thanks for the video, I'm going to see if I can learn from it. You're trapping 8 MPH higher than I am!
Did you do the 520 conversion, if not, where did you get the 525 rear sprocket from? Besides the midpipe and no mirrors, what else do you have for weight reduction?
The rear sprocket is a vortex sprocket. Still 525 chain. Fuel level was low but the light wasnt on yet, put in an alien motion lithium battery, fully deleted the set valve, pair mod is also done, forgot to mention that previously. Stock with 1/2 tank the bike weighed in at 415 lbs.
No stretch yet. I want to go 9's on the swb. My buddie who has a 2011 zx10r didnt think it could be done until he seen the 10.10 run. So I have to do that before I stretch it. I wanna stretch it and go mid 9's and maybe a 20-30 shot to help it. He's gone 9.85 on the swb on his zx, he is stretching his currently and will probably be going low low 9's soon.

Sounds like a great goal to me. How was the DA when you ran? Do you have anything else you plan on doing to the bike to hit the 9 or just seat time and/or better weather?
stock tire, stock pressure, no issues with traction as long as the tire gets warmed up. Launch rpms are like 9,000 but I crack the throttle as I roll off the line so I really am not sure where they end up at lol.
man thats impressive.. i have the same midpipe with a yoshi r77d slipon. kn filter pair valve delete and set valve delete. stock gearing custom flash tune and i weigh like 145. going to the strip for the first time Wednesday and gunna borrow my buddys strap any advice?
lol ya sounds about right. my buddy has been drag racing for a while and is gunna make a few passes on it.. he is heaver than me but.. lot more experience. he ran a 9.67 on his 05 zx10.. strapped lowered in the back and stretched geared minus 2 up 3 . stock other than a slip on.. and a air filter i think. untuned and he weighs 160 ish.

It took me all season to get to the 10.10. but every week I dropped a tenth or two, One more week and I think I would have ran a 9. Oh well, I am leaving the bike as it sits untill it goes 9's.

how did you delete the set valve? I did the disable mod. did you knock out the remaining valve or cut and weld new pipe?
