  1. This is not a testament of Shinkos ability to anything well it's about your bike. Wouldn't it go just as fast with any other tire from a roll? The profile helps with launching not as much from a roll. I also call bullshit on the 190 MPH too unless verified by GPS it is a very hard number to reach without a power adder.

    There was a guy on the ride in Dayton yesterday who had Shinko mounted; they were perfectly fine for that ride. They do have their place, work well if long life and cheap tires are what you want or need; some people don't need to ride around at mach to have a good time riding.

    I was joking about the Shinko LOL.....I know it's the bike. 190 depends on which sprocket is on the bike. Yes there is a little bit of a power add to the bike. If you want to play the dyno game, do NOT run a Shinko. A used hard tire will give you a perceived HP boost on the dyno. This is why you can't rely on dyno numbers alone. If you really want a good dyno number go on a cooler, non-humid day and run an old bias ply tire.

  2. the sport attacks are good tires.. i use them on street and track, but they really arent on a budget they are about mid pack pricing, the dunlop qualifiers are cheaper

    True, but you find them on sale quite a bit. I go mine when Hinds went out. 50% off. Gotta love it. Oh well, I don't have that bike anymore. Running a flat profile Shinko now. I can't turn anyways with the Brock's sidewinder and lowered profile, but I can sure make it to 190+ really really quick :)....Lets see someone's Dunlop or PP keep up with my Shinko in a roll on. My guess is if some can keep up, they are running a Shinko too.

  3. Shinko's are great tires for their purpose. They are soft, sticky and have a flatter than normal profile. More tire on the DRAG track means more traction. If you want to go knee dragging and your on a budget Conti Sport attack work well. If your not on a budget, just like everyone says PP's are great.

  4. There is nothing in the re-flash unfortunately. You can build a 1st gear lock out, but I just wanted to use the starter button past 3rd. My goal is to make it to 170 in the 1/4 mile. I'll never be able to compete with the other bikes at trails, but good enough for me. As for turbo......well I had thought about it but decided against it for reliability reasons. If you configure nitrous correctly it's safe...ie no nitrous when the rev limiter sets in, A/F below 12 and yes only at WOT.

  5. Ok I'm about to give up trying to figure this out. I would much rather give someone here some money than a dealer. Here is what we have. I currently have nitrous on my starter switch(I didn't wire). I am getting rid of that set up and going with an ECU set up with a smithbybusa wire. I know how to hook it up if I was just going to go with the smith setup, but I want to still run it through the starter button, so I don't spray in 1st and 2nd. I have the bike apart with access to the wires. If someone can figure this mess out let me know how much you want.

  6. I just wanted to share my experience with DynoTune Motorsports. I have had 2 bikes tuned by Brian and I was more than happy with the results. Mind you I am not a racer (yet) but the tune felt great to me. My first bike was a ZX6R. This bike used a power commander and a DJ hub with nitrous. Brian tuned 2 maps for this bike, one for motor and one for Nitrous. Both maps worked flawless. With a flip of a switch I had a 135 hp on a 600cc bike (small shot through the filter). My second bike was a ZX10 complete with full akropovich exhaust, thin head gasket, racing cam, PCIII and ignition module. Brian tuned both the PCIII and ignition module. Again felt great to me. I then traded the 10 for a busa. The person I traded the 10 to IS a racer. As soon as he got home he took the 10 to a race shop who tunes drag bikes. The tuner said is one of the best tunes that he had ever seen on a bike and would not touch it. Exact words were the A/F was spot on. I know I have read mixed reviews on Brian's work, but I can say from multiple experiences that in all cases my bike felt smoother, had better throttle response, and when a performance tuner says the same thing that is good enough for me. Brian if you happen to see this for some reason you have a Busa coming your way.
