Hey Cuban I saw that stoppie pic in your sig over there, looks good. How long did it take for you to master "getting it up?" I am still a little chicken, I only get it up a little then back off. Is that a clutch up or a power wheelie? I was out for 7 hours on Tues. We rode up to Limerock CT on 22. 120 down those back roads are sweet. You ever around weekdays??? Keep the rubber side down. Peace

Sup bear...


getting it up is really easy... you just have to get confortable enough to loose some fear but never get too comfortable and confident on it.. i dont clutch them up...all power baby! i am usually off 1 or 2 days during the week.. especially on wednesdays..and always looking for a ride.. i just got full leathers.... cant wait to put my knee on the pavement
and your 750 is a lot more brutal than my 600... so watch those power wheelies... especially if you do it in 1st... very easy to 12 o clock it..

ttyl....

Those are some good pics. I try to keep my R1's front tire on the ground, but have lifted it accidently in 3rd gear at 115mph

I love my car, but the bike is scary/fun, Fred
