well when i did the new clutch replacement on friday of last week i installed.new steel plates/new friction plates/ and new springs. it was barnett's complete clutch kit HPK-78. i am assuming the cheap ass one.

i hit the times i had been running one time at 7.8 at 94+ miles an hour. the rest were 8.0's at around 91mph

ohh yea they are not having open test and tune tonight at bradenton bobster and teggy. you will have to wait until next week.

I'll take that bet. Don't want to get Bobster mad and hope that I have to pay you the $5 so he can get into the nines, but a 6.80 pass in the 1/8th is going to be hard to get into the nines. Now I think his bike can get into the 9's with him riding it but his 1/8th time will be lower. His mph was only 112, means he made a good pass et (good riding job). If you look at index classes that run a 9.90 they use 6.25 in the 1/8.

What times should I expect to see through the 1/4?

Here's my best 1/8 of the night over all.

R/T............563
60'.............1.745 (here is where I really need to improve)
330'...........4.481
1/8............6.555
MPH...........126.33

Thanks,
Cecil
