    Mella yella--my race bike is finished.

    After a fair few nights burning the midnight oil Mella yella is ready to race.
    I just took her out for a ride--My first actual ride on her.
    She now pulls clean from 3000 rpm with only a touch of fuzzyness just off idle.
    She wails like a bloody banshee.
    the brakes are now Bloody phenominal.
    The twist that was in the front end has gone-now she tracks straight.
    The yellow paint and bright green wheels scream at ya
    so watch out KK and mitch mella yella is out for a good gallop on saturday.so just kinda swerve as you lap me hu?

    And then a wheelie again.

    And there you have a "teetor-totter" folks. Well done, Frosty. Next week we'll attempt at 12o'clock/highchair.

    Not a friggin shit show in hell. Mella yella will be -gently rolled into the van and carefully tied down.
    No way do I wanna annoy the motor racing gods by tepting them with a stoppie or a wheelie

    While you're online and before I forget, Frosty. Don't forget to release the new paint/earth magnetism before you ride the thing.

    Gently lay it on its side on some grass or something.

    The same goes for all you other boys and girls, heed my words or you'll be sorry!

    I did it twice within a 5 mins time frame after finishing off for the day at the last open day in April. Is that enough?
