If Guy wants a new top bar made out of 1" .058, I'll make him one for my cost just to keep someone from getting hurt.


Not sure what wall thickness it is - but after that pass, I picked his bike up by the wheely bar tire & bounced the bike in my arms ... couldn't get it to bend ! Yes, it had a kink in it - but wouldn't bend.
What does this say about how hard it's hitting the bar ?

The top bar is thick and heavy. It does have a slight bent to it. It does flex more when he launches. I may have to help Guy make a new one out of titanium.. LOL

That it's hitting the bar with more force than just the weight of the rear end.

Charlie,

That was my 18mil DM. That time was from the pass before I ran. My bike was running consistent 3.5s. We never were able to get into the .4s. I wish that would have been my numbers those... lol
