Bill just ran a mile at 289 MPH !!!  The bike has to accelerate so much harder in the shorter distance it becomes much more difficult to ride. I hope everyone understands this is not  LSR as you know it. It truly is the twilight zone. Be safe Bill.  LSL
All motor all the time and a turbo now and then.

Any data on how fast it was at ~1/4 and ~1/2 from the logger? Just curious how fast the first 1/4 is really.
Any day on a motorcycle like this that ends just needing parts and labor is a good day.

Didn't you run mid 170's in the 1/4 on your bike if I remember correctly what was posted.

Congrats to Bill on the awesome speeds!!!

Bill had a small issue and then the wind came up, done for the day. At those speeds you cannot take any chances  :thumb:

BILL WENT DOWN !!!  He is alert and seems to be able to move everything. He and the bike came to rest at about the 1.5 mile mark. Please everyone PRAY. I will post when I hear more.   LSL
