      Thanks ppl.
      The Fiero in its present state of tune is capable of 145kph exit. However due to lack of time to set-up the bike right, i had to settle at this much. Atleast with a better launch I could do another 2-3kph more.
      Yes, its indeed in the 2-strokes league now.

        ^^u participating in Mumbai speed run man?
        A good long ride can clear your mind, restore your faith, and use up a lot of fuel.

        Always be ready (get geared) to fall and then think of sitting on the motorcycle.

              dude, i hope you were not crazy to guess this much.
              I have a proper drag bike which is only meant for a quarter mile run. Its pushed pretty hard internally. The other bikes were my Karizma and my friends drag RX and a Victor. We drove down in a Traveller with the bikes inside. Its impossible for me to ride around this bike for even a few kilometers.

                  okie...now pics from the drags!

                  First....sexiest bike of the drag8)






                  Sexiest Ass i've seen recently!






                  Which bike does this resemble?




                  Console of the GSX i beleive


                  Nice ass ehh?








                  This is the r1 which won finally.....amazing timing it had. 10.01secs....busa's clocked 10.7sec as the best timings:O....it was ridden by a teenager.....he was wearing a vega boolen helmet:P



                  This was the bling bike of the day. Chrome alloy's and custom (uck) painting. A Kawacker zx9R i think


                  I could'nt take pics of the drag...batteries were dead by then....a few i managed at the end.....wasim and some other guy returning


                  This busa was the scariest of the lot. He spun out twice. 1st he dragged with wasim. At the start he spun out of control.....bike turned 90 degree's and there was immidiate smoke from the rear tyre:O

                  The R1 won!

                    Red-White R1 with 04 exhaust pipes has very devilish sound, I've seen it around my locality bcoz His friends lives near my home. EVEN A DEAD WILL WAKE UP FROM ITS GRAVE IF THIS R1 BLAST PAST ANY GRAVEYARD, such is the sound from those 4 pipes.

All others almost gave up and we kept getting alarms to not proceed, but my drive kept me going. The roads were bumpy and bad that my Fiero ended up with a dented tank and a broken visor and a damaged fairing.
                        joel-thats the reason i was crazy enough to assume that u drove the fiero all the way

                          Four bikes make a class!!! This is the rule which made me ride my victor in the upto 165cc class. Inspite of all the travel and pain and work, heck!!

                                I did a mistake by taking the victor to the drag not knowing the fact that the 130cc 4 strokes last actively participated in the Jan 2009 drag but none in June 2009 drag. Had I known this before, the results of 165cc category would have been different.

                                So dont make a mistake by even spending a penny on setting up a sub 130cc bike for the drag, its a pain. Take it from me. Remember "It takes 4 bikes to make a class". Taking a 133cc bike makes no sense unless you have some serious stuff under the tank and FYI anything above 130cc goes into the upto 165cc category.
