    hes good... had a crush wound on his foot from the bars... bike is not really that bad just the nose is toast and needs a speedo and a dent in the tank.. somehow everything else is fine.

    bike 10 over. just hooked really good on that one and rider error. hes not used to hydraulic clutches hes an old school guy and used to bar bikes.

    Dang, that sucks! I only drag raced a bike a few times and I aint got the guts to be good at it. Lotsa respect to those who do it well. Still makes me edgy to watch. LOL

    been going slow.. think somethings up with the motor.. dealer replaced some bearings on it a while ago... and now it wont trap higher then low 130's so something is wrong with it.

    Good thing I'm too fat for a bike, I'd flip it the first try and it'd be curtains for this guy.
