OK, Leaving a buddies house tonight, Bike had been sitting for several hours.
Well As I am suiting up my buddy asks me to show Josh (His 12 Yr old Nephew) a little somt'n somt'n... Now I generally do NOT take requests but the kid is surrounded by Harleys so I was sort of a treat.
Anyway, Long story short, instead of a wheelie in my buddies driveway, Josh and Seth both got treated to a fast snap to the left and a long smokey crossed up burnout. It stepped out so fast for such a long bike that I was just about at full lock keeping the front wheel pointed in the right direction, before I could say "whoops". Anyhoo it occurs to me that I cannot just get out of the throttle or Lilah goes boom, so I ride it out, looking like some kind of "Super Dave" imitation. I am just glad that a full face helmet and the darkness made it impossible for anyone to see the fear in my eyes... Anyhoo, I rode it out, no big deal, kept my feet on the pegs, slowly roll off the throttle and things lined up with just one SNAP.
I look Back, Josh is jumping up and down, and my Bro is trying to remember how to close his mouth... Made it worthwhile I guess.
ANYWAY... Point is my whole night almost went straight to hell cause of cold tires, and all I was thinking at the time was that DAMN COLD/NEW tire thread... Seriously, GET SOME HEAT IN THEM TIRES>>> BEFORE DOING STUPID SHID!!!!
