That would require introspection.  I'm a guy.  So I'm not that deep.  Dammit.

What's my launch technique???  Hmmmmm, usually, if I decide to watch one, I'll go grab a cold   out of the fridge, sit down in the lazy boy, and watch the launch on TV.

If you have a motor that makes decent power and torque,the most consistent way to leave is to top the forks out on the line,and RIDE THE CLUTCH out while opening the throttle.60 foot times will come down,and you should be able to dial yourself in at any track(or stoplight).

Hands down,you CAN NEVER be consistent popping the clutch....................

I appreciate the feedback so far, but still would like to know the best way to get off the line fast. I won't be doing it all the time but every once in a while it might come in handy.

Here's my strategy:

1. Take Harley Home
2. Get Ducati

My launch strategy....

With both feet firmly on the ground...

Look left

Look right

Look left again

Slightly rev the motor and slowly let the clutch out

And proceed cautiously thru the intersection....   

Is there any other way?
