The tether kill switch might be an issue. I don’t think I can ride it fast enough to trap 130, but I think the bike is capable of it. I have leather pants I’d be wearing anyways. ---

I don’t think I can ride it fast enough to trap 130, but I think the bike is capable of it. I have leather pants I’d be wearing anyways. Why? Here is a pic of the one I made for my bike (instead of buying an expensive switch online) and it is legal to use according to NHRA rules. Just pick up a lanyard for around $5 and drill a small hole in the switch, put in screw and done. I didn’t get a long lanyard at the time it was the only length I found which is fine, I just hook it to my glove while most people with longer ones hook it to there jacket. Works the same either way. ---

Not that this is not innovative but a few things that may be a concern. If your lanyard pulls down on the switch it may not pop the button up. If the lanyard is connected to your glove, your glove may come off your body much easier than the jacket. Otherwise, if it passes tech than f#ck it ---

If your lanyard pulls down on the switch it may not pop the button up. If the lanyard is connected to your glove, your glove may come off your body much easier than the jacket. Otherwise, if it passes tech than f#ck it I could possibly see the first issue happening, I mean I have messed with it pulling and it doesn’t require much pressure at all to flip the switch, not saying it couldn’t happen just saying its highly unlikely. As for the glove coming off, definitely not coming off my hand, the velcro strap is around the wrist and it would take A LOT of force to pull that off my hand without the switch being pulled first. But yeah it passes tech so I’m good with it and it only cost me a few bucks LOL. ---
