my woman needs some help. we picked up a bike for her today and she droped it with less than 3 miles on it we ended up with an sv650, it came in yellow and that was her bigest requirement . the bike has a ton of tq and i think that actualy makes it a little harder to ride. it is real jumpy when you move the throttle and has a ton of compresion braking.



i got my first race in today with the fz1. lined up with a sv1000 and beat him prety good. there might be video of it later. this fz1 is easy to launch hard. it really doesn't want to do a wheely so i can just hit it as hard as i want out of the hole.

Here's some better ones of mine. This bike wheelies on demand. I've been searching the 'net for misc. parts n' things. Unfortunately it doesn't appear all that popular in the States, but I've found several sites over in Europe that have all the REALLY cool stuff. I think I'll be ordering overseas for this bike. I threw on the bar end mirrors a couple nights ago. I got them from a Triumph dealer, so I had to modify them to fit properly. Very different, but cool lookin'.

Yeah, I know that. You quoted the wrong person. Weird.
