What year is your Raider? and post up a pic............

What hp is your big Vtwin?
I think they cut fuel at an even 140. I've had it up around 135 and it was still pulling.

Pics I took when I bought the bike:





Its got a 1900cc motor in it, however its pretty restricted from the factory. 90hp and 105tq. I don't think it'll be hanging with that VMax past the 1/8 mile at all, but holy shit does that big V-Twin boogie down low. They made an effort to smooth out the acceleration across the gears and did a damn good job of it...but a V-Twin is still a V-Twin. Peak HP is made below 5k RPMs, peak TQ is at like 2500. It likes to GOOOOO off the line.

And 120 at the rear wheel? You've got some work done to that thing, eh? I think they had like an even 100 at the motor from the factory, huh?
