frame sliders are plastic cyclinders that protect most of ur fairings from cracking when it drops..but if ur gonna be drag i suggest getting a crash cage..it will protect ur motor and fairings

I'd suggest a different bike for drag racing too, our bike is probably one of the worst choices to go fast in a straight line...now twisties are another story!

For take offs, dropping a tooth in the front and/or adding to the back is what you are looking for. This will kill a some of your top end speed and your speedo will be off a lot, but for a 1/8 or 1/4 mile drag.... you will not have the time/distance to reach top speed. I plan on changing my set from the stock 16/43 to a 15/43. That'll be enough take off for me and hopefully doesn't kill the top speed. I need to research the speedo healer a little more before I feel comfortable about making the changes.
