Default another don't ask me how I know

1. HQs builds are nice

2. a HQs 103 will allow you to do wheelies easily

3. one should not do wheelies in short parking lots

4. prior to doing any stunting in a parking lot make sure there's no gravel ANYWHERE

don't ask me how I know

Im not going to ask but say it an't so.

A H.Q. 113" will go faster than the spedo can register and you will break the inner fairing brackets for sure, don't ask me how I know.

I told you!!! I told you!!! Did I say I told you so!!

Just to fill the forum in. I met (but have never physically met)Lyn because we both did the HQ Build. He has sent me videos of people stunting on HDs. He has walked me through the process on how to slide down the street. I told him I better not learn because I would hurt myself and he was going to do the same. But does he listen??

I will admit this tho.....A HQ 95" will surpass the 120 mph on the speedo too.

I hope you are ok and wish the bike a speedy recovery as for you, you are in "time out" and can think about what you have done. Just kidding bro. best wishes.
