I'd have to say a b21FT. Since you know, it will do 106mph (so far)... and I don't think a B21E could reach that......?

So B23FT it is 8)

Yup thats the new garage.

Its a 98 Arctic Cat zr600. I bought it with a blown engine. Rebuilt it, fixed the cause.

They dyno right around 106ish HP. In the next week or two I should have twin pipes and a clutch kit for it.

Reading the site and other peoples responses about this set up is "6mph more on the top end (so that will be 112mph), and 15 sled lengths at 1000' mark!

I'm working on getting a new head for it with adjustable insert domes.
Guys with that set up run in the 11.9's at 104mph on asphalt drags. Plenty quick.

The handle bars are so comfortable now. I can stand without hurting my back. And even sitting its so much nicer having my arms up. Wrist my start to hurt, so I might have to adjust the position of the throttle and brake.

My new, expensive hobby.

And ya thats my garage door. Here is another shot you can see a bit more of the garage....

Maybe later I'll take a picture of the garage.... Have some security people coming by today to take a look at setting up an alarm in there.

I've already got 30 miles on the sled! WoOt.
