As someone who gets his ass beat by Ari on a monthly basis and can vouch for him being a seriously cool dude I'll tell you that bike is modded but it's allllll Ari. Before he modded the motor (lighter crank, bored out to 300cc IIRC) he was doing 2:00.8ish. He's no slouch. The 8hp basically helps him not get raped on the straights.

As for Timm questioning the Superbike Shootout riders the ones in question are likely Zack Courts, who grew up with Ari and is just as fast, and Ari himself. Yes they are not going balls to the wall because it's unfortunate to return a heap of metal to the manufacturer, but again, they are no slouches.
