This is my dual duty street/track cbr1000rr. While I far prefer road racing, drag racing offers some cheap practice.

Currently running it stock wheelbase with a strap, pushing Into the 10s @140 mph. While it is running full bazzaz engine management, intake, full yoshi exhaust etc. I will probably move to an mr12 tune here soon and possibly build a long swing arm setup I can swap to as drag racing is quite fun.

Honda managed to make a bike that both scoots in the straights and turns like my other 600s. A fantastic machine!

Depending on what I'm doing yes

The tires are not good, and I wouldn't use them for road course. But they do okay on the street and at the strip and I'm too lazy to set up a set of wheels for drag racing (for now)
