Okay, so i got bored one night - tonight infact. A mate of mine managed to twist my arm and get me to go for a ride. Got a couple of video's up on youtube now.

Sorry about the pathetic amount of sparks coming off my slider - but this is 1 o'clock in the morning and im bricking it on only my second time trying to get my knee down.

The second vid was filmed by me of my mate on his DRZ400, sorry about the quality - phones arnt meant for this!

Sparks look great, shame you can't see them yourself, I know I can't. Notice how easy it looked for you to pull them wheelies off, and how quiet is that bike?

Wasnt me pulling the wheelies - they scare the crap out of me

Grant pulled all the wheelies, very good at them. The first one he did took him by surprise as he thought he was in second. Popped up a bit quick and almost stacked it - good to watch though! Its cool though - i can get my knee down he can do the stunts. Fair doo's i suppose.

Fair play, I loved getting mine down but when you look back on it, it's funny lol.

You Roundabout warrior, got to learn the twisties now (I haven't personally got to that stage yet either).

[Torque05]

Im going to wait till i have a trackday then properly try.

Yea, it was me doing the wheelies, and foot down sparkies.

Sadly the bike is really quite, not by choice, but my money funds are not allowing me to buy a better exhaust.

Hope you all liked it, we'll have to do another midnight madness soon!

Probably going to do the track day next year in spring at this rate.

To be honest since ive got my left knee down it feels so much more comfortable than the right. Tis a bit strange .
