well went to the track yesterday
- Thread starter him
- Start date
Him... great story, glad you shared the experience and the video with us...
One thing about bikes... leave the male ego at home. I have almost wreched mine once because of an ego trip...
Yea, it looks like you let the air out of the back, pinned the throttle, and she gripped like you were'nt expecting her to grip...
How high were you in RPMs when you let out the clutch? It kind of looks like you didn't give it enough power to spin the tires, but too much for a solid grip...? More details...?

I would've used one.Real men dont use wheelie bars, but they sometimes find themselves on their azzes!
Any one have a painter tank or a rashed tank...no dents though
Ok bike is lowered 1/2 in the rear and strapped in the front i dont have a tree. What happend was a went through the water had water left. When the light turned i had it at 4k and pinned the throttle and dumped the clutch... bike spun and gripped then the #### jumped in the air. Bike doesnt have a tree thats just what happens when you dump the clutch...ill try and get my run i did before that that one wheelied but the tire lost traction and i proceed to skidd down the track. I cant wait to get back to the strip. I usually wait for the bike ot start movin before i pin it and thats where i fugged up. Ill try and get some vid of my spinning runHim... great story, glad you shared the experience and the video with us...

sonofa... that sucks to hear!
I had two buddies go down last year at the track
1- began to wheelie, he let off, when the frt came back dwn, was enough force to flick his right wrist.... and then its time for the loopy loop... was a bad one.
2- other bud hits 2nd gear, comes up a bit, starts a head shake, get so bad it throws him off, he went thru the 1/8 traps at 100mph on his ass....
gotta pay very close attn to what your doin.
2wks ago, dude not used to sticky track, came to my track, hammered it so hard, he broke two front sprockets in two launches.
Him, get back on, and keep doin it....
