well i have some gearing done but here its the cooler air.. i have found that my bike performs so much better the cooler it is.. it takes alot more to get the front end up in 3rd during the hot day than it does in the cool night.

its not too hard.. you really need gearing done to make it easier.. and low tire pressure.. it just takes time and practice practice..

very nice. now try it standing with a staggered stance (cover brake with right foot and left on back peg) COG is farther back and it comes up with even less effort.

3rd is a great feeling gear to do em in, its wayyy less twitchy. its unfortunant that we have to be doing 80, but its entertaining lookin at peoples faces when your crawlin past em on 1 wheel down the highway.
