I'm surprised this doesn't have more views. We'll, less competition for me!

[@d1sturb3d119]

So true! So many people who like feathering the clutch all the way while launching at 6k

[@christopherwilliams8423]

Glad I watched this. Would love to see the rest. I have a concours14and I’m sure this will help.

[@JLShotta]

"anything over 3500 rpm is a waste, bike gonna be all up in yo chest" haha awsome.

[@LeeVTV-jp4mi]

Near genius!

[@droceretik]

Excellent explaination.

[@ChevyFreak72]

Man I need to try all of this, I’ve only had the bone stock ZX-14 out once so far but 11.3 @ 132.9 was the best I could do.

[@DaleWalkerHoleshot]

Tried Rickeys tactic on my Busa and works a treat! Ran a 9.2 second pass!

Adders321 super !!!!

[@verbat1900]

Brock? From Brock's performance?

[@scruffy1971]

Ricky Gadson is the MASTER.

[@watchonthetoiletchannel4741]

would you keep the rpms as low on a gsxr 1k also?!

[@brianmathew09]

very close..less torque than a 14..but it is lighter..traction and tire grips does have to be considered

[@Land-Shark]

Is that Kevin Duke @4:25 (and recording this video)? Very cool! :)

[@ThomasShue]

Is there a follow up to this video?

[@jrkzx12r]

250 in,, listen to him do the bike launch sound,, i emt ime few times at track near me ,, friendly uy will giv ya info to help ya

[@espxyngular]

I have a zx14 with power commander no extended swing arm with 195 hp at tire. I have to open throtle slowly because wheelie happen fast if open the throttle suddenly. Thanks Rick !!

[@JonTheChron]

I have watch this video several times over the past 3 years and every time I watch it, go out and practice, come back and rewatch, I understand what he means! I called RG school to sign up, perhaps this summer.

[@JonTheChron]

Gonna be trying this on my H2SX SE, maybe a big more rpm since the engine is smaller than the 1400?

[@g6dre368]

I wonder does this technique works for an 05 Suzuki 1000 also

[@rtiger20]

See in TC 1, I CAN do it!! On another note, I will leave off the line at 10k rpm. Watch how fast i get down to the other end of the track!!

[@syedzafar1103]
