busabeast Posted July 28, 2025 Author Share Posted July 28, 2025 My mate ants bike was leaking fluid so he aborted his run. this time i lit up the rear tyre off the line and also spun up massively halfway down the strip in 3rd gear given why my ⅛m speed is over 10mph slow. worst run of the day Still on road pressure and suspension settings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the bike with you on it is around 284kg and the bike makes 100bhp That gives a bhp per tonne figure of..... 352.11bhp/tonne= not enough to worry the busa over a ¼mile drag race Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 352bhp per tonne your giving away just over 200bhp/ton to me so I don't think it would be quite as close as you'd hope Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
busabeast Posted July 29, 2025 Author Share Posted July 29, 2025 The 1200 bandit that you saw my mate riding has around the same bhp/ton figure and I was ahead of him from about ⅛m point Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
