3 Mistakes For A Gsxr1000 Rider [Archive]

SCC327

10-04-2002, 05:57 PM

I was cruising around lastnight after leaving work. I went past the local cruise spots and hangouts for thursday night. The police where everywhere especially at NW Hwy and Garland Rd. you know the place the Sonic Motorcyle hangout. So I headed over the the other cycle hangout at beltline & 35.

I stopped for awhile to see if anything was going on behind the wharehouses. Nothing much so I decided to leave. As I am pulling out of the the parking lot some one on a GSXR 1000 decides to follow me (MISTAKE NO. 1).

As I am getting on the highway heading south he decided to pull up next to me and rev his bike as too want to race. ( MISTAKE NO. 2)

Well I love racing bikes or any cars that might want to have a go at it. But I am not one to antagonize another person into racing. Also that doe's not mean that I am not ready for a race, which I always am. I usually cruise fully loaded for Bear. Meaning that I have racegas in the car ready to go for some unsuspecting foe.

Reason being I have cruised around with 93 octane and there seems to always be 4 or 5 different people trying to get me to race and I hate that. So I just usually have race gas in all the time now.

Back to the GSXR incident. I look over at the guy and down shift to 3rd going about 70 mph which is just about right for me. The guy looks over at me and motions for me to hit it. (MISTAKE NO. 3) little does he know he is doing just what I want him to do. pick a race with me.

So I floor it and the tires start to break loose as I pull out on the guy to where he is at my rear bumper. By this time the guy is all layed down on his bike at full throttle giving it his all. Well I shift into 4th and he pulls up to my door.

I am sure that he is thinking that he is going to keep going, but to his supprise as my car reaches 5500 rpm I stop him from comming and start to pull him a little at 6000 and contiue to pull him untill he is at my back bumper again. Well I am thinking that I might need to go to 5th in order to make things worse for him.

I look at my tach and it is a 6700 rpm, I look back at him he looks at me, looks at his bike and lets off in frustration. The guy wouldn't even pull up next to me after that. I slowed down for him too because I wanted to say something to him but he just stayed behind me. I guess he was too frustrated with himself for picking on a lonley little mustang cobra.

BETTER LUCK TO HIM NEXT TIME.

Just thought I would share that with everyone on the board.

I got the money to prove it if you got the bike ( GSXR 1000 or any other litre bike you might happen to have available). And a 600 is not even a problem for alot of cars out there much less mine. I am shure that I dont know you from Adam so if you dont know me than you might ought to find out before you call bullshit on something. Only reason that I posted it is because I thought that it was funny how the guy acted. Also I have raced and outran many motorcyles.

I have had clutch problems that have caused me to miss gears and other things such as slipping clutches and the only way to test the new one is to race something that is fast. For it is not the first big bike that I have raced. One Kawasaki 1200 comes to mind when my clutch was slipping and that race was pretty close too but the bike was ahead of me by about a bike length. It was a friend of mine that I raced and his bike is as fast if not faster than the GSXR 1000.

Sorry if you can't believe a car can hang with a bike but as I said before, you supply the bike we will just findout who is full of bullshit and who is not but it will cost a little cash $$$$ to see.

With a good rider one like say ARH those bikes run good 1/8 mile times at say 110 to 115 mph but only run 131 to 138 mph 1/4 which is only a difference of say 21 to 28 mph difference last year my car would run 98 or 100 1/8 and 131 to 132 1/4 which is 31 to 34 mph, so some fast cars will pull bikes on the Highway. I can name 10 to 15 different people on this board that will pull a motorcycle on the highway good rider or not.

lilthumper sounds like he is speaking from experience with this type of situation. Bikes are fast but just like anything esle they have there strong points and weak points, and from a roll is a weak point for some bikes or even cars. Just depends on what you have when its TIME TO PLAY. Either one can have different outcomes.

I have a TKO with a Ram 6000 series clutch it is a little more aggressive than a 900. I have had some clutch issues that have caused me problems in the past with missing shifts and slipping issues. Raced a couple of bikes and GARS02GSTA's brothers car with a new 900 in my car and it would slip if it was shifted hard so I needed to step up some how, without going to a Three Finger Clutch, and this seems to be working better. The 6000 series is a copper zinc metal compound with six pucks on it and inner springs for a smoother ingagement.

I have debated on that one I have also been talking with ram on the new setup that they have it has an adjustment that will allow you to make the clutch not give full pressure at launch so the car wont blow the tires but will lock up at around the 60 foot mark. This clutch is $1100 and the Mcleod is around $800 and at the time that I was looking for one there was not enough time to get one before FunFord Weekend. Still haven't decided on which one that I want.

I don't know about that it is not hard to hold a bike wide open a shift it when you are running form a role. What is hard is to launch one and keep the front end down while still at full throttle. easier to run from a role then a stop. Still those bikes are very fast it is hard to tell which one is faster the GSXR 1000, the 1200 Kawasaki, or the Hayabusa, not shure if Yamaha has a fast big bike, but they are all fast.

Not sure I was told when I was on the phone with one of the engineer's at Ram but I have forgotten the exact pressure, I need to call them back and find out, before I make up my mind as to which clutch I want. The Ram has light pedal pressure also.

Against the bike in question, which ran 10.80 @ 127 at Ennis, we ran from 60mph to 150mph. I put 4-5 cars on it. We have video.

Against another 600cc bike, from a 60-150 I put 2-3 on him. From 40-150 he put 2-3 cars on ME. :)

Point being they become less of a threat the higher the race starts...from a stop they kill me, from a roll they kill me a little less, and from a higher roll I kill them. :)

I have a stock GSXR 1000 that wouldnt mind playing on the highway from a 50 or 60 punch. This bike ran 9.8's @ 148 off the showroom floor. It did have a lowering strap to keep the front end down. Hes a damn good rider. Ask around a few have seen him ride. Cmarsh93z saw him at Denton one night and asked what mods he had. It doesnt even have a slip on.

I would love to play with him on the highway. 148 trap speed is pretty high for a GSXR 1000 isn't it, most of the one's that I have seen have ran between 132 to 138 or 9 not 148, only bike off the show room floor I have seen run faster than 140 is a Hyabusa. But I guess It can be done just haven't seen it yet. Just curious what gear would a GSXR 1000, or a Hyabusa, or 1200 Kaw. be in at 148.

Hey Wes. Not trying to get in a race with you... hell, I'm trying to sell my Busa! To answer your question from a while back... 1/8 mile times, 6.6 @ 113... but that's not saying much with me riding. I never could get the hang of getting out of the hole well.

And I will agree with you that 148 seems a tad high for an "off the showroom" 1000. Not saying it's not possible, but I've never seen it, even with a 1.5 or .6 60.'

The 9.8s were posted down at HRP when i was there in my car. He ran on Saturday in more then perfect weather right before it rained. Ill double check with him but im close to being sure it was that high of mph. Busas werent even breaking into the 9's off the showroom down there. Ill get back with ya on it though.

If no 9's then that's likely a problem with the rider as opposed to the bike. I've been down to HRP several times with bike guys and stock Busas have no problem running 9's with an experienced rider. I haven't been to the track in over a year now, but if memory serves me correctly, a gixxer 1000 should be able to pull that off as well. Nevertheless, high-five to Wes for kickin' the chick in her dick...

I bet those bikes don't put as many miles as Wes does on his car. I think Wes puts about 300 miles a day on his car and he can still keep up with those bikes.

Hey Wes. Not trying to get in a race with you... hell, I'm trying to sell my Busa! To answer your question from a while back... 1/8 mile times, 6.6 @ 113... but that's not saying much with me riding. I never could get the hang of getting out of the hole well.

And I will agree with you that 148 seems a tad high for an "off the showroom" 1000. Not saying it's not possible, but I've never seen it, even with a 1.5 or .6 60.'

Yea 148 to me seemed to be a little to fast for a 1000 " off the showroom" I am sure they can run that fast with mods, but not stock.

when i had my gixxer, i had my a$$ handed to me more times than u would think, and its not hard to pin out the gas and shift. and with bigger bikes, its really harder for them to get off the line, the power over so fast. hell, R1's like kevinH78 are bad enough, but he can be beat just like everyone else. btw kevin, do u still got the silver one, i heard u wanted to get rid of it?

Yea Brian it seems that way sometimes 300 a day, but it is really honestly more like 300 a week easy.

Wes,
I got a friend at work who I told this story too. He wants to run on the highway for some$$. It is a 02 Ninja 1200, with some mods, and a good driver. I think it ran 115-117 in the 1/8, never had it to ennis.

Btw I hope you beat his asss

My car is fixed again, the cam pin broke and I had another one machined that was bigger. Luckly I had no bent valves. So tell your friend that I am ready anytime he wants to go I am game. PM me with his decession.
