Oh, i 'm the yellow helmet. That's my daily rider , lined up with an '07 ZX14. While the Buell is far from the quickest/fastest of the bunch , it holds it's own with being nearly 40 h.p. less than most of these liter+ bikes :-) (the highly modded Busa's don't count) lol

Brings back some great memories. Good ET's. Are you still at the stock wheelbase, or stretched?

Got a kick out of the guy with his right foot hanging off for nearly the entire run!
Busas were flying. You had much better reaction time than your opponents!

lol thanks Jim , but my lights were horrible. It was just test and tune runs , basically non betting grudge matches. The fog was just insane that night- pretty sketchy launching out into space , full throttle into the abyss . Bikes weren't making much power in that "water-injection" air ,but it was really fun at the time . Other than the Harley and the V-Max , the SMALLEST bike there was a CBR1000. I believe there were four ZX14s ,1 turbo Busa and 1 'built' Busa . Pretty sure all the low 9 passes were on spray. Just goes to show that our little "low powered" Rotax twins CAN run with the 175+ hp Inline4s :-)
if only I had a nickel for every time I have heard "Cycle Mag x says my gixxer/cbr/r-1/zx bike runs 9.xx seconds at 140-150x mph" lmao then they discover they AREN'T Rickey Gadsen :-)
