What you're doing is impressive in its own right! consider these journalists are all skilled riders on bikes much lighter than the R3 with a power to weight much better and these guys can't crack 10.

ok, I am just sad now i had hopes with that reaction time, i also lost a lot of weight for this

Don't let negative thinking rule your day or your ride! Throw that bullstuff thinking out the window right Now or you never will break 10.

i will strap down the front shocks next time, i didnt know about that until I went there last time. I heard its gonna help a lot

I was thinking of 1/4 mile finish line. Think leaving at higher rpm's would keep power curve up as long as you can control front wheel lift and a good grip from rear tire.

well, the 3 bikes I used as an example are bone stock. Proper tires and using the methods guys on this thread are recommending might be enough for you with the map you flashed

I gave it a shot with my bike, but it wasn’t even close—honestly, I'm too embarrassed to even mention my time.

Its not easy, lots can go wrong trying to wring out the rocket. I know you had fun. @Nashvegas throws his down the track.

Come on tell us. If its your first time, don't worry. There is a lot to learn. Took me several seasons to get good at it.
