My guess is that those good old boys spend a lot of time re-building their forks and checking their headstocks and tripple trees for cracks and damage....

i've never really tried to get the F1 up.... thought it may have been too heavy, but obviousely i was wrong....peace

At a recent track day I came into the pits and rode through a large puddle of water on the concrete. Pumped with adrenalin. I thought "I'll grab the front brake and do a massive burn out". A microsecond later and I though to myself "don't do it mate, you idiot, you'll wind up a screaming heap on the deck".....Like most stuff on a motorbike like "can I get past this slow bastard in the available roadspace ahead", if you have any doubt or have to think twice, don't do it. There is no way I'm going to try to wheelstand my bike! I'm too old, the bike's too old and what does it prove?

Hi kghost, yep, my last post was a bit pompous...I really meant to say that I wouldn't wheelie my bike because it would be just my luck to drop it in the process or really stuff the forks, they are 36 years old...

nice avatar kghost, really added to the spirit of this thread .... did that take much clutch?....peace

[cben750f0]

agreed, i bought my first bike off a mate of mine...68 GT185... prbably as heavy as the cb, and he could wheely all day, i was flat out liftin the bloody thing!!!!.... he weights 120kg's though so that might of had somethin to do with it!!!!
