    No. K1200GT with 140k on the clock. Runs like a top and doesn’t burn oil.

    I took a spell at drag racing cars on the street and track. I also am willing to race anything that pulls up next to me as I drive down the road and I always thought that I was pretty quick at shifting until I bought a DCT. Now I don't watch the tach and try to time the hand foot coordination instead I twist the throttle and go. Maybe it just works with my maturity (old age).

    LOL
    Being prepared is always a good thing. Know your enemy right I think you know, I am always willing to run! Bring it big Daddy. I would really like to get on a closed circuit and have some video and pictures of our runs. Just having played with you this past weekend I truly believe that it will be close either way. I am thinking a bike to bike and a half length difference....either way.
    A long hot summer awaits us. Always looking to play.

    I know modified the F6B is much more enjoyable than stock F6B. Torq Loopz, slip ons, and a tune, change the F6B’s character a lot. Not sure what is available for the new GW nor how it would compare to a modified F6B.

    I would love to know how these mods improve the 1/4 mile ET. Any chance you will ever have it at the track? Or possibly on a dyno?

    I am more interested in what does/does not fit in those saddlebags compared to the old model.

    The DCT is more powerful than F6B especially when you choose the sport mode
