HAHAHA. Gotta watch out for those vans. Did it by chance say "FREE CANDY" on the side too?

Got bored tonight, felt like making a video to try some new ideas but with no new footage I just had to use old ****.

And I found these random videos from a car show/dyno day we had at a local shop (that's not me talking at the end, it's my friend).

On a street tire, not special. Put it on a DR and it can dip pretty nicely into the 12s. Those are two different models with 2 different power levels, just fyi.

Picked up another little winter project. 2006 ZZR600 with 482 miles. Been in storage for 2 years with no prep so it doesn't run very well (carbs gummed up). I didn't want a carb'd bike, but the price was too good to pass up. I could just clean the carbs and resell for a substantial profit, but i'll probably just keep it for the summer.

By spring it will have basic bolt-ons, re-jet and a few little things. Should be a fun mid 11s commuter bike for next summer.
