The Pro Stock Bike chassis is adjustable for wheelbase, between 68 and 70 inches. The long 4130 chromoly frame has no rear suspension but the front end features a modern "upside-down" telescopic fork with the larger-diameter outer tubes located on top for increased stability.

The rider shifts the five-speed transmission with an air shifter, activated by a small handlebar-mounted button. An air ram powers the transmission into the next gear.

The on-board Race Pack computer monitors critical engine functions such as engine rpm, wheel speed, air/fuel mixture and exhaust-gas temperature. The information is downloaded to a computer inside the race transporter and is reviewed after each run to help mechanics make adjustments to the motorcycle.

A 10-inch wide Mickey Thompson racing slick puts the power to the ground and is good for eight runs down the drag strip.

The lengthy aluminum "wheelie bar" stretches 130 inches beyond the rear axle and keeps the powerful bike from flipping over backward.

Most NHRA Pro Stock Bikes are powered by a 300 horsepower (or more), 1,500cc (92 cubic inch) Suzuki engines. The double-overhead cam four cylinder engines feature eight-valve heads and rev to 13,500 rpm. Each cylinder has two spark plugs to help evenly burn fuel in the combustion chamber -- with a super-high compression ratio of 18 to one. The ignition for Steve's bike is controlled by an fully adjustable MSD MC-4 ignition module. Four Lectron flat-slide carburetors control the air-fuel mixture. During one quarter-mile race, this Pro Stock bike burns 20 ounces of 114-octane VP Racing Fuel.

Superlight carbon fiber bodywork is wind-tunnel designed for the best airflow over and around the machine. The bodywork resembles that of the standard, road-going Suzuki GSX-R motorcycle.
