Sorry him, I was reading that thread and couldn't resist..........

[him]

[atticdog]

is this what happends when you install a TRE on your bike?

[billbell]

Sorry bout the loop. Atleast the bike didn't land on ya. Glad you are ok.

[Wag]

Glad you're okay. That's why I posted my Lunch post, just so's I can learn from you experienced experts how NOT to do what you just did.

I'm going to see what other kinds of voodoo I can work to make sure of it!

--Wag--

[BA BUSA]

Glad your ok. Sorry about the bike

[HayaGreg]

That was great. Nice straight pullaway. Considering all that could have gone wrong, you are very fortunate.
Sorry about the bike but it could have been much worse.
Get back on that horse!

[Mr Brown]

A still from that video would make a great avatar or signature pic.

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 liked the fact that it looked almost like he was gonna try to catch the bike while it was verticle. Nevermind any damage that could of happened to him, he was trying to save the bike the whole time. Now that my friends is a true rider!

[johnstein]

you have to crash to learn the point of no return ! if you havent crashed you arent ridin hard enough ! you hav my respect for postin that vid ! glad you are ok !

[rosco15]

Wicked crash. Is the bike stock length? Lowered at all? I'm planning on racing mine for the first time in a month or two. I kind of like the bars on my dragbike.

[fstbusa]

man talk about happening quick..... did you just dump the clutch?

[FL Knifemaker]

I gotta respect you guys that can launch that hard. Well, you know what I mean!

Thanks for posting the video and glad you are OK.

[busahaya]

Anyways I've got a spare stay bracket if you want it. Just pay for the shipping.  Shoot me a pm Bro.

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

I would've used one.

[frisbee]

Dam'n, Him! Glad you're ok.

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 run

[jwcfbd]

ouch I'm glad you're OK

[cache]

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....

[paineless4u]

wow, sry to hear of the mishap. I'll have to check out the vid at home. Extend that arm and it will help out for sure. Glad you are ok.
