Grover, did you mean 4.25 [smiley=nixweiss.gif]

I'm glad you caught that Brian. My mistake. Yes, It's a 4.25.
Good eye [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif] I corrected my original post.

Thanks,

Grover

Just wait till you are on the back of Punkin. [highlight]The extra weight on the rear wheel will cause that bike to hook up.[/highlight] You saw how high it came off the ground in second didn't you????? Wait till you see the hole shot in first.

Yes indeed with the extra weight, it's much easier to hook up. But it'll come off just as nice solo. Just needs a softer touch.

And speaking of the extra weight...I also lose h.p to the ground. I think for every 7 pounds you loose 1 h.p. So that would put me at about a 25 h.p disadvantage with my sweetie on board :-[
Damn [smiley=nervous.gif]! How am I gonna break the news to Lynn that we both need to loose weight or get more engine mods. [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] ;D

She's real understanding, she'd probably give me some leather goods...
That'd be a belt in the mouth and a boot in the ass [smiley=huepfenlol2.gif] ;D

Take care, ;) [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Grover,  that rear tire you have "Metzler 880" is a softer compound than the Dunlop which helps in the rear end hooking up. The width you have doesn't hurt either. I put the tour pack on, lowered the air in the rear tire to 35lbs and almost went all the way over [smiley=nervous.gif] Need to practice a little more [smiley=xyxthumbs.gif]

Hogasm.

ps.  Grover and the Dawg are going to be in the dawg house together if they keep up with the weight comments. ;D
