I too have much experience of the burnout and a highly satisfying thing to do it can be...however I have dropped off this activity of recent years, mostly cos I can't afford to throw tyres away that often, but also cos the last proper one I did cost me $3K for a changeover motor for the Vmax. oops
redlined in all 5 gears so the back wheel was spinning somewhere in excess of 220kmh (140ish mph), all went well and I went home a happy boy on the train (way too drunk to ride - turned out I was too drunk to walk as well, collided with a lamp post and dislocated my left thumb and ripped a load of skin off my face), went back a couple of weeks later when my hand was sort of working again and tried to ride it home...no chance.
went back another week or two later and took the clutch out to see if that was the problem, unfortunately not, you can see through into the motor when the clutch is out of the way and there were several cogs with missing tooths lurking inside the depths....bollocks
eventually got the money together for a s/hand motor and started trying to fit it, the guy who was helping me claims it was working on a Yamaha that gave him a heart attack but I have my doubts
sorted eventually but what a cock around.
I now stick to doing burnouts whilst moving and on the freeway cos the Vmax will happily light up the back wheel at around 70mph and that's good enough for me
