A buddy at work with a Harley wants to go against me at the local drag strip on amateur night. Neither of us has run the track before but it might prove interesting. $20 a bike and all the runs that can be fitted in. I am wondering what rpm's would be most efficient to shift at. I expect 6500-7000 would work but looking for pointers. Not sure what model his bike is but I'll have to find out as it may be a sleeper! Any other pointers are welcome as this is new to me. The track doesn't open for a few weeks yet so I may have to find a quiet road to practise. My bike is bone stock except for the new diagphrams, needle shim mod, carb sync, MAc mufflers and new paint. I have an E3 on the rear with about 50% tread left. I read somewhere that it helps to drop the air pressure in the rear tire as well as the rear suspension. Fire away. -
Hey Ventureriders I patched up my diagphrams with liquid electrical tape last year and they worked great, however when I took the carbs apart last weekend to clean them I found the liquid tape was peeling off. I heard that some guys are using Plastidip for this and was wondering if it lasts longer. I know the real solution is new ones but 2-3 hundred bucks are not that easy to find and this Forum is 'poor man tips and fixes.'
