Here's my first run with my 1997 CBR600. all I have is an Erion exhaust, and extended swingarm.

1st run
60' 2.453
1/8 9.255
1/4 14.925 @68.18 mph (I let off and didn't know where the finish line was.

2nd run
60' 2.649
1/8 9.176
1/4 13.737 @103.32 mph

3rd run
60' 2.547
1/8 8.818
1/4 13.292 @107.13 mph

4th run
60' 2.538
1/8 8.998
1/4 13.521 @107.68 mph

Keep in mind this is my first time ever running at the track, especially on the bike. I was pretty much just rolling off the line and then going. Once I get my launches down and get those 60' times much lower I should have some respectable times going. Next Tuesday I'll be back launching much harder, and making good use of the swingarm.

Also how do you guys shift? Clutch/No clutch just curious, I was clutching on all the runs but was wondering if I can shift like my dirt bike no clutch up, clutch back down. Just at the track of course.

im in the same shoes as you,

i just bought a 97 cbr 600f3. and i woke it to the strip the first weekend,

i was running solid 12.3's and 110+mph, my best run for the day was 12.09 at 114mph, but its all in the launch, it takes some practise
