Is it just me or do guys in chipped out diesels always try to race bikes?? I'm not really complaining cuz I don't mind putting them in there place [sm=devilgrin.gif]

 

I have seen a few of those diesel trucks running in the 9's at the track.

 

i dont try to race bikes in my diesel.. mostly cause i know the acceleration of a bike is unmatched.. so by the time i shift into second the bike is already through the intersection..

 

yea ur right, but not every diesel is doing that. I'm not hating on diesels or anything cuz i have a buddy that has a bad *** diesel, but it's like every time i pull up next to one they're always trying to act tough because they have a vehicle 20 times the size of mine

 

lol theres lots of things that run in the 9s at the track. doesnt make their daily driven counterparts any faster. ive notived that too. come on, big heavy diesels get walked all over by honda civics and v-6 mustangs. being fast for a truck, or fast for a diesel and being fast are 2 very different things. they need to get it through their heads, if you race a normal every day car, you'll lose, if you race a bike, you get shamed.

 

come to think of it, i get revved at a lot by 4 banger mini trucks all the time too, lol

 

this is great ! last night i was on my way home and had to stop for gas sice it was payday i treated the girl to a nice tank of 101 octane, now as i am siting there filling up som guy a ram diesel pulls up. i mind my own beacuse its a gas staion lots of people pull in. well this walks over to me and checks out my bike. says nice bike blah blah blah .... and he ask how fast have i gone on it ! i replied 160 he then ask me if i want to make a quick 50 bucks ! i said sure how ? hey free money is free money. he wants to race me i his truck. i was no way first i don't race anything that can run me over when i beat the crap out of it! he says check my truck out then think about it. so i check his truck out its nice .. bullydog electronics and soem big *** turbo and nos .. i was like hell no. i don' have 50 to spare if i lose he tells me ok 50 just to give him a run for his money and pulled a 50 out of his pocket an handed it to me. so i handed it back andasked where was this going to happen at.he knew of a spot that was a privateairstrip that we could run on .. so we exchanged numbers and sice the weather was rainy we deciced that sunday wewhere going to do this .. i willupdate when it happens

 

well...don't be running the 101 octane cause it ain't going to do nothing for you...maybe in fact slow yo **** down.

 

"a nice tank of 101 octane"


Just out of Curiosity? Why do you use 101 octane gas?

 

Yep, you're bike isn't technically a "race bike", your bike was made to run "Premium" fuel. They sell 110 octane here in town, but the ONLY people I ever see use it are the drag cars on the trailer behind the truck pulling it. And like Tahoe said, you'd lose power more than anything. Your bike will run wayyy too rich/lean, depending on your setup.
