Hoard · 05-25-2009, 08:45 AM

I'm looking for something to do today. I might attend. I'm pretty much bored all day; so whenever

BLIZANTHIMUM · 05-25-2009, 09:19 AM

Hoard · 05-25-2009, 09:20 AM

SC? Anyone want to PM me those directions?

packer71 · 05-25-2009, 10:01 AM

I'd like to come watch and snap some pictures. Bliz txt me some directions. 208-871-0356. I'll be caging it with my little girl. I don't think she's ever seen anybody stunt before. Sounds like fun.

IDAHOBALLER · 05-25-2009, 11:07 AM

I am going to try to make it out there at around noon.

Scout16 · 05-25-2009, 11:42 AM

can i get directions

IDAHOBALLER · 05-25-2009, 02:12 PM

I had a good time out there rollin a few wheelies on my SV.

I am not too good at them, but I am getting better. I need to change my gearing some to make it easier to pull a 2nd gear wheelie, my SV doesnt like that right now.

Hoard · 05-25-2009, 02:17 PM

It was fun. I finally got the balls to do a few. Definitely need practice but... all in good time. Gotta keep the bike in one piece for track day

Scout16 · 05-25-2009, 02:44 PM

well as my first session i think it went all right. ill be out there a lot more though. just need to boost my confidence more. ill be standing up soon though.

r1bran · 05-25-2009, 03:18 PM

That was a good time. Bailey you were lookin pretty comfortable when I was leaving. You'll be bustin circles in no time. Thanks for the invite.

shaner · 05-25-2009, 03:20 PM

Damn it Bailey! No more stuntin til my bikes done.

Hoard · 05-25-2009, 03:43 PM

Tried getting a few pictures with my point and shoot; a few decent ones but I didnt' have the patience to keep trying.

IDAHOBALLER · 05-25-2009, 04:03 PM

Nice pics!

stubby · 05-25-2009, 10:56 PM

You guys suck, I didn't see this thread until it was way too late. Bailey send me a text next time you hit up SC.

Zed6E · 05-26-2009, 01:33 AM

Hi All,

These are some of the pictures I got today. I am still going through them and will post them as I finish.

Scout16 · 05-26-2009, 01:45 AM

Wow Hoard has the most intense stare in those pics looks like hes really serious about what he's doing

Zed6E · 05-26-2009, 01:59 AM

HAHAHAHA...I was thinking the same thing as i was editing them. His eyes are extremel sharp in the full sized versions. He was really concentrating

Scout16 · 05-26-2009, 02:05 AM

these pics r turning out really good.

you were looking real good man. 2nd gear is too fast anyways.

although you do need to be more sociable. everyone out there was like who is that guy? i told them im pretty sure its idahoballer.

Thanks for the compliment, I just started doing stand ups a few weeks ago.

And yeah, I am kindof quiet most of the time, but I will try to get out to ride with you guys more often and be more sociable.

Being social is over rated.

Matt · 05-26-2009, 03:10 PM

Wow, great pics guys! I couldn't make it out, but hopefully next time

Doh! I can pull it up in 2nd or 3rd just fine, but yeah, I hear you on the too fast thing. I'm no stunter, but I do enjoy some wheelies, but often question if my technique (or lack there-of) isn't the best when I set it down at 100+mph...

Anyways, lookin good Bailey and Idahoballer, way to pimp that big twin!

HAHA, I was trying my best to pimp the big twin! You guys with your newer Inline 4 sprotbikes have a serious weight advantage over me which is why my bike doesnt like the 2nd gear stuff. It is geared too tall and it weighs too much. It will actually pull 2nd gear pretty well if it is almost out of gas, but if you fill it up there s no way 2nd is coming all the way up without the help of a little bump or something to get things started. At the end of the day my bike is a 480+lb pig! And it doesnt help matters that I weigh 230! It would also be nice to have those extra 4-5 thousand RPMs available that the 600's do for wheelies! I find the rev lmiter cuts my wheelie fun short sometimes.

I think this bike will probably be my last sport twin. I want some other engine configuration next time around.
