So...after a few days of fine tuning the black widow she is running like a freaking beast! Dave Rust @ Arrow builds quality stuff!!
This morning I decided...."He'll, lets see what see can do!" After triple checking EVERYTHING, I removed all non essential items....tool box, kickstand, lights, etc. I then borrowed my neighbors full face helmet and crotch rocket jacket and pants. Woke up the ole lady so she could ride next to me in the car.
Bike specs:
4.5 arrow street racer engine
Custom kx60 exhaust
100:1 opti-2 mix with 93 octane
Kenda 2.0 kwik roller tires
Halo downhill mtb rims
Avid BB7 front disk, v-brake rear
Hoca aluminum throttle
39 tooth sprocket
KMC 410 chain
Rider - 6'2 185
Location:
Central FL, HOT, HUMID, sea level
Well, I'm proud to say.....I topped 55mph on my third run!!! Probably the scariest time of my life, but awesome at the same time! O..the road was nice and flat and freshly paved. Also, 70psi in the tires. No wind.
The bike ran surprisingly smooth. I take that as a pat on my own back. If it didn't, I'd have no one to blame but myself since I built it.
