enjoy

p.s the only thing on my sg that has been done is a se heavy breather and mufflers

Son, .............. When you grow up you'll look back at what has been said and say........Damn those old dudes knew what was up.

But seriously. I get my kicks with my fuel and super gas drag bikes. I don't see it necessary to beat the **** out of my street bikes. The few times that I have really jumped on my little bike it can shred (using your lingo) the rear tire thru third gear just by cranking the throttle as I pop the clutch. BTW yes it will carry the front tire a foot off the ground while doing it. Also its NOT a stock bike...........


Less strain on the belt........ Gotta love the newb's

BTW you wouldn't have the belt problem if ya ran a chain.........

First, get yourself a 61 yr old panhead. (Don't wanna wreck a NEW scoot, ya know)
Then find a lonely stretch of country road.
Then PLAY to your heart's content.
OH, ya, one more thing, DON'T miss any shifts with the foot clutch, and the tank shifter.
Then listen to some GOOD tunes while reviewing 'practice session'.

Harsh I know, but somethings just don't make sense.

Posers, lots of posers.

Pansies, lots of pansies.

Same thing in this case, I think.
