I'll say, really off into the weeds there Bill...

Why does it sound like a 7-speed gearbox?  Did the clutch lockup about 50 mph and cause the RPM to drop?

that's the super secret reason for the fatty on the back to increase the contact patch and distribute the weight during off road excursions. The HFCR404A could help too.

I agree Alan.  He's got it all down:  hard launch, doesn't back off on the throttle when it goes sideways, slows it down so hard the rear wheel is banging up and down, then into the dirt without a mishap.  Bill makes it look EASY!

Those that have almost (well, ok, I was 34 mph off his speed at my fastest! :oops:) gone that fast realize it's not that easy.  Just ask anyone who's seen one of my "train-wreck" runs about "smooth".  Wheelie, chop throttle, burn out all the way down the track at 230+ mph, etc.  Pick one (or all).
