this set up looks pretty good..
shame it's not here

[deathstar]

on bloody speed triples as well but i guess they think that only people who know how to ride would even think of trying that.

[Fatjim]

Wouldn't be too difficult to rig up a attitude sensor ( i mean angle of wheely, not whether your angry or not) to the rev limiter.

you can buy them, cuts spark as you get to your desired angle so you just whack open the throttle and it holds you up at that angle till the engine runs out of steam

designed to stop you looping it and having a nice friendly barrier which you can adjust as you learn the feel of your bike on one wheel

[bugjuice]

I need a shitter 600, that's what..

[Fishy]

Could get a couple of guys to throw some money in to get a stunter and get some crash bars fabricated for it and practise whenever you can. Could just alternate which weeks the owners have it or have stunt practise together..... just an idea?.

[bugjuice]

yeah, i've spoke about it to a few guys before. always comes back to a lack of fundage. could work tho. get 4 or 5 and chuck a grand in the pot, get something ok for that with a crash cage

[Fishy]

Yeah man that would get you something that would do the trick alright. Its a bloody good idea, I would be very interested in doing something like this but not till mid to late this year....bloody bills! :doh:

That's no way to talk to a Scot, however as I said It's be nice to Bug week,

and yes I did see the wheelie when you left us the other day

looked pretty good from where I was:2thumbsup

keep at it mate.

F/F:blink:

[Korea]

Has anybody got a link to actual instructions?

lol.. ma bad. bad week. I retract my comment
yeah, been working on it, need more practice, and need to grow the balls a little more

[Firefight]

have you tried a search K ?, this subject has been covered many times on the site, sure there were some links, am off to work soon, will have a look later tonight and see if I can find some.

Here is something people might like to read.....

[The Stranger]

Enough talk, lets make it happen.

Can we have ideas for a good candidate please?

Why not an off road bike?

[bugjuice]

dirt bikes have been said many-a-time, to be the easier machines to wheelie.
All this talk has got me psyched tho. I've been trying for yonks in 2nd gear, and with 50/50 success. I think I'll go back to first gear to get the height more regular. Then I can get used to it. Then I can start drilling thru the 'box!
Just watch for the police - Really nice orange Kawasaki ZX6 has lost control on the roads, and flipped. But looked really really good just before he did.. poor bugger. Lets give him some money - reports

That, and my hand is buggered. I think my clutch is burnt up and it's making it harder to move. Need to compare it with another 636

[Sniper]

Good luck buggy. I would love to join ya but....

[bugjuice]

reckon I'd be joining you!
really don't wanna tho ;)
and not tryin either!

What are they called? Do they cost much?

[The Stranger]

Come on guys, serious offer here.

If we find an appropriate machine I will divert funds from the insurance on the Blackbird to help out or to buy one.

So anyone have a machine they want to get rid of, or ideas as to what machine would make a good candidate lets hear it.

[Riff Raff]

Pit bike? Can't wait for ours to arrive so I can start learning stuff.

[Postie]

how bout this piece of shit

sorrry if its actually some one from KB's bike....

[The Stranger]

Yeah, but, wouldn't it be better to have no fairings at all?

[bugjuice]

yeah, that wouldn't be too bad. CaN, I'm sure you can sort the fairings out.
Still a little under powered tho, may be a newer 600 than that, or a not-to-old thou. Something with a bit more grunt, that'd be a whale to get up

[Marmoot]

but it's be kind to Bug week, so I won't



F/F:apumpin:

You're talking about the one that he already has?



Sorry.....I couldn't help it......just came out naturally.....
:grouphug:

[bugjuice]

this would be an ideal stunter

ZX9 with a few scratches and dents. Working, absolutely fine. Just scuffs. 5,5gs

[Fishy]

Yep that ZX9 would be perfect, or this blade...

http://www.trademe.co.nz/Trade-Me-Motors/Motorbikes/Motorbikes/Sports-tourer/auction-45457793.htm

I used to own this blade back in 1999/2000.

Rip the fairings off and get some crash bars welded up to bold on to the sides and you'll be away laughing.

Hi Buggy an everybody one else,

My old GPZ 600 never really liked being clutched up. I think it is better to spend said dollars on a +3 rear sprocket, get a 1/5th throttle insert, derestrict power to machine and have some fun.

Since I installed a TRE on my TL, it is really easy to power wheelie in first, so is well worth the money spent, not to mention the full horsepower gain. Do the rear sproc and wheelie in any gear - no clutch, just practise or get a willing pillion. I might try a few on the way to Waihi tomorrow arvo, will have Cibby on the rear so should be pretty easy :devil2: might help settle her nerves :eek5:

Try an find out what sort of power restrictions your quaka has, more power easier to wheelie - saves on clutches.

have fun

dude .. you ride a Kawasaki...how shitty does it have to be????

Yes, I can add my testimony to that.
Pulling long rolling stoppies are great on blades.........until I got violent a headshake and realized I can't afford keep binning my bike. :crybaby:
