He missed the number plate refererence: P15 TK.
Even I, in my running on 2.3 cyclinders brain noted that on the way past.

I like to wheelie when I can, but I don't work too hard at it, as my favourite places for doing it are also places where I need to be very vigilant for flamin' noonahs.

That, and speeding are about the limit of my party tricks. I used to be good at donuts (grass, gravel, concrete, asphalt, car roofs, table tops, etc.) but that was then, and now it's now.

Plus (a) I'm a weenie, and not very good at wheelies (unlike Sensei, LooseBruce, Zed, et alia) and (b) the VFR's not the bestest wheelie machine, especially given (a). It probably could stoppie, but I can't be bothered trying.

Best stoppie ever (for me) was when I wound off the antidive on the VF500 and braked hard at the traffic lights in Hamilton. Yes, that antidive really DOES work!

A place for everything and everything in its place. It's not what you do it's the way that you do it.

I do what I can

Real wheelie specialists have little wheels on the back of their helmets.

Ummm Ok.

More likely the gay cunts riding them can't do anything worth getting pulled up for.....

Same here. I've never even attempted a stoppie in my life - does nothing for me! True story.

I like to watch them performed though, especially by another rider in the group I'm with.

I'd rather look up in the sky than down at the road.

NO EXCEPT WHEELSTANDS AND STOPPIES

**Two Smoker** · 31st May 2005, 18:14

No no no, you got it all wrong... The cop in my profile stopped me to ask me for tips on how to catch all these fast bikes. I said I didn't know / couldn't tell him, but here's $120 to keep your spirits up...

Listen buddy, do you think my response was one that would have been written if I were serious?????? Cmon, what do you take me for? (Oh yes, someone running on less that 2.3 cylinders). Catch a wake up buddy

EDIT: Cripes, I may look stupid, sound stupid and often act stupid... But I guarantee you that I'm not actually shtooopid

EDIT #2 WT - Cmon mate, when you gonna come out the closet?

(Go buy a Yamaha, they take that little bit of extra pride in their bikes, like welding their frames properly

)

Bah, they're the easiest anti-social action to perform. Easiest way is to:
1. Tell your mate to turn his camera on
2. Put your front wheel on the driveway, back wheel on the grass (or in a puddle of water/oil/diesel)
3. Grab a whole lot of front brake, and a fair chunk of throttle
4. Take your weight off the back wheel, stand up over your seat if you can
5. Drop the clutch
6. Enjoy!
7. Clutch in to stop, or if you're really confident, ease the brakes off and start a rolling burnout.
8. Post pics in forum

no harm in having a few beers and bringing the sweet melody of a 750cc 4cyl with a straight through exhaust to the surrounding suburbs at 2am now is there??
