I know it's kind of dumb to drag race a supermoto, but I wasn't doing anything on saturday and beachbend has a satuday fun day for 5$ all the passes you want to make so I said why not. Ran about 8 passes on my 625 and my best pass was a 8.58 at 82mph in the 1/8 and 13.592 at 95 mph in the 1/4. That's with a 200 lb rider.
Has anyone else run any passes on their sumo's?
The guys on Busa's were hating hard.

I was out at my local strip with my 06 KTM 450smr this past summer. I ran 14.0 all night at 89 mph, 1.9-2.05 60ft. 105f air temps, 4260ft elevation. 230lb rider. It was a blast, sportbikes were hating it, until they blew by me shortly after the 1/8th mark.

A few years ago, I (175#) took my '04 625 SMC down the 1/8th in 8.926 (first time out on a drag strip-- no red-lights, so you know I shoulda done better), and a more experienced rider buddy of mine (probably 185#) did 8.615 on my bike. Stock tires, gearing & jetting (but no throttle stop or SAS).

Sounds like you didn't do too bad.
