    Mate on a Ktm 530 with a Husaberg 570 kit in it wanted to see what my 16 te300 was like in a straight line...
    I swapped out the dealer pre delivery shite jetted carb with the manual settings which was leaner bottom fatter main and leaner needle as it was very lean up top and put the red spring in pv and WOW,
    Second gear race starts ( bit nervous of that one) smoked him
    Rolling on from first .... Smoked him
    Any hilly technical riding his sweats so quickly and has to sit and wait to cool or find open space to cool off.
    But mine and tops out at 145 kph
    And his keeps going if long enough area..

    Hardest part is getting traction to the ground and not wheelieing.
    One of the local places I ride has a dirt drag strip. I was doing some rolling starts by myself when a group of kids on race four wheelers called me out to race :eek:.

    Smoked em all and some kid on a 125 not surprisingly.
    My bike may be more powerful, but those kids weigh 100 lbs less!

    Also going to durhamtown ga memorial day weekend. Dirt drag strip there as well. Will be racing my brother on his KTM 250. Should be close if not the same if experience tells me anything.

    Fun to do some drag races, I am not very good at it and it takes more skill to get the power down than I would have thought. If your mate trusts you, and vice versa, the real deal is to race and then switch bikes, then race again to take the rider out of the equation. Will do so with my brothers, but there are not many others that I will let do this!

    I like that idea, we have swapped b4 and he's certainly unco on mine.
    His is awkward and no way as nimble but Bugga me if you game to twist the wrist hard it pulls harder than a 16 year old!!
    It was a hard pack short grass paddock and he had a new tyre,
    But he can ride that thing bloody good.
    My rule to anyone that asks for a ride on mine is I get to take there wife / partner out for coffee and they return same condition as my bike..
