That's still respectable for a bike that size on a street tire... they aren't exactly light. Put a slick on it and run it in really good first and you'd probably crack well into the nines. What pressure were you starting with in the rear?

Oh man, you needed to run another 100 miles at least on that tire first, and with the pressure down a little so the whole track contact patch is getting broken in not just the middle.

He got rid of those stock mufflers. They're heavy.
Curious what your speeds were.
