Snakes,
I know what you mean about the track! The bike is crazy indeed!
The bike is sneaky quick. Especially if you ride by feel rather then markers. I find the brakes are a little lacking under constant use. At my local track on my 1000 I was getting to the end of the straight doing 235-240 km/h. With my H2/SX/SE I was getting there doing 260 - So heavier bike + more speed equals some fun times. A couple of butt squeezing moments as well tossed in for free!
The suspension is much better than say a ZX14 which gives it a better feel around the track. You feel more in control. It's seriously good fun - I would encourage everyone to take their big green machines to the track. Even if your a novice (which pretty much anyone buying this bike aren't) it will improve your riding on the street.
Anyway, Snakes, be sure to post your info after the intercooler.
Yea the power and speed the bike gets up to is sneaky as fuck. I was faster in the turns on my zx10r but on the straights coming into turn, im so much faster and yea, there was alot of ass puckerings as i blow past my line. Brakes are good for the street but definitely need to be upgraded to handle the speed and weight of the bike.
And ill post any and all info once i get that intercooler over the winter. Most likely wont dyno again, but will probably do another track day. This recent one i got my boost temps up to 100*c (212*c) and it was a chilly day of 15*c and i was only riding in medium power with vcyclenuts flash

Right on, once it gets below 110* degrees here in the day I am going to take mine back to the dyno...the reason I topped out at 192 was running rich up top. That has been corrected, so I want to see where I ended up.
if your doing top end runs did you data log it or are you going by its a bit rich on the dyno?
The air fuel on the dyno and on a top end run will not be the same , it needs to be a little rich on the dyno to be good when doing a top end run.
on my top end run pre intercooler my IAT were over 190 , this is what I think is holding it back At that IAT you are loosing a lot of power. I haven't had a chance to do another top end run since the intercooler but im thinking its going to be a difference of around 40 hp to the wheel at the top end.
David,
I recall an intercooler read on this forum, I think Extreme Intercoolers, or
