I remember a time back, one of the members did a pic like that with his bike. Belt sander on the rear tire. That pic is buried in here somewhere. Pretty funny, too!

Pretty sure I remember that picture. May have to have a sequel " Losing chicken strips, no gear required II "

How much ass pain was it to polish that black frame?

Great job on all three of your bikes. The first Busa was always my favorite, this new one isn't shabby either.

I could have done it in 1 day but i kept trying different methods to see diferent results. Basically a palm sander using 150, 220,320,400,600,800. Then i wet sanded 800,1000, 1200,1500, 2000. then i used a foam polishing pad on a drill with blue magic going overit several times. Then a micro cloth with mothers billet alluminum for a final. Now in between all of that i was messing with a angle grinder and different types of buffing wheels to see if i could do that instead of sanding. The end result to get the best finish for me was sanding.

Pat that is great...but one thing i noticed is your set up at the dragstrip has your axle right at the back of your extensions(license plate removed to clear).......we have 2 busa"s one an 07 and one an 08 with the same extensions...not polished of course...lol.....and judging by the side pics and lining up with the flashers using the axle...it is more than 5over i would say...maybe i am wrong.....then put a pic with a tape mesure from middle pivot to middle axle...that will show exactly how much over when you are all the way back.

[Pat Dietrich]

With 18-48 gearing it was in the area of 5.5 over. The picture and setup here that you see is with a 45 on the back and had about an inch to go before it touched the back of extentions so probably at 64 in . but not a measured number. Its just guessing where its sitting. I could count the links on the zzz chain give you exact gearing 18-45 and if you have a way to figure it out go ahead and knock yourself out  But i never said it was 5 over for the last race. I knew it was around that for the last time I ran at us131. i had at least 1.5 inches to go with extentions before it was against the back.

Was just comparing your bike to my friends 08....and when you mentioned 1.40's at 5 over..i was wondering because the pics of your bike in street trim and race trim are different the way the rear wheel sticks out from the tail....so i figured at least 65 to 66inch wheelbase because we had 2 set up identical and your pivot to axle should be 27inch at 5 over....gearing does not really say wheelbase cause my 07 is about the same as yours and i have 16-45...(stock motor)my turbo is 64 inch and has 28inch pivot to axle(6over)........i thought that you raced your bike exactly the way pictured in street trim..that's all.
