Sorry to say that was a non EPA approved burnout, therefore, your warranty is voided, I consulted with Trump and he agrees.

HOLY **** I've never seen someone hoist the front end of that bagger off the ground like that!

Not sure if it was throttle manipulation you could hear after he grabbed a few gears, or if it was actually bouncing off the rev limiter!

😂

yeah only 100 miles or so and he was having issues kicking gears because the tranny was so fresh, but he got it into 5th, the dealership was the only place that had a rear tire in stock the next day and they were like how the hell did you roast a tire off already

Some people apparently have money to burn. Any time I see such antics I can only shake my head. I actually rode with a guy once that did this on his Sportster during the ride. Once...

I said the same thing in a similar thread yesterday...im a fan of a good burnout but this wasn't one of them. Get out from in front of the large immovable object and light it up like a real man. Roasted the tire in less than a 100 miles but then he'll be on here either complaining how the bike is already broke down and the m8 is a pos or bashing his dealer because he wont honor the warranty lol.
