I don't mind.
Wouldn't that be water-tight?Bucket said:Gee a squid's asshole would be very tiny,make sure you don't turn into one. ;D
The quirkiest bikes have the best forums for some reason, as long as they don't got filled with zealots who can't stand to hear a single bad word about their true love. I thought trat was pretty cool and it had a big influence on my decision to buy the s3 (what a fucking mistake that was) :fingure:, this forum has turned into something better than trat. Now, if I could just figure out how to do 2nd gear wheelies with this thing....J-Pip said:Well, my current decision to tade Speedy for a Gixxer, has had me looking on other forums. And they're full of Squids and assholes, and squid assholes. I don't think I'll ever find a forum like this one. You guys are great.
alright kc, let's git this sorted. Exactly what are you doing to bring it up in 2nd? I know you are used to a ZX10, and as I have said earlier, speedy won't come up as easily at speeds like yer 10 would. I find it hard to bring her up much over 60-65mph. It can be done, but needs a bit of work. If you are 55mph or under, she doesn't need a huge amount of clutch slippage, but still a bit more than my R1 used to. You have to remember, speedy is a little chunkier than those ol' rice rockets. There's really nut'n to it once you git the hang of it. I can now power wheelie speedy in 2nd gear around 45mph or so. ;D Let us know what you are doing, I'm sure we can git ya on the right track.kcjones said:Now, if I could just figure out how to do 2nd gear wheelies with this thing....
Right now, I probably need less mechanical sympathy. I went out the day after I posted about being disappointed, and I tried 2nd gear at a slower speed, about 35 mph, and it came up higher and if I would have been sitting back farther, I probably could have gotten it up close to the balance point. I should point out now too, that I don't do real balance point wheelies either, I always need to keep accelerating at least a bit to keep it up.cheapbastard said:alright kc, let's git this sorted.

Get down to La Crosse for a weekend, bring a new can and by the time we're done she'll power wheelie easily for ya in second! Just by followings the Great DVS tuning plan!kcjones said:The quirkiest bikes have the best forums for some reason, as long as they don't got filled with zealots who can't stand to hear a single bad word about their true love.
