IF it's your first season, take it easy and work up slowly. I know it's hard to do but you'll be happier and safer in the long run.

Wheelies get old and will get your in trouble, and burnouts waste your tire.

Wheelies get old!?!? Believe me, no disrespect. But I think riding on two wheels is whats gets old. Wheelies keep things fresh!

As for the rubbers...I melted my dunlops off without worry. But i won't be wasting the "sticky sweet" PP2ct's anytime soon.

I guess those stickers, and underglow go with your attitude to riding.

You ride with a good group through some twisties and I promise riding will not be boring.

OK you guys are right. I went out today and got the front up in 1st. I just did like suggested and let off at 6-7000 rpm then went hard on the throttle while sitting back. The front came up and I let off because I was scared by the feeiling... lol i know Im a wuss. It may be the temp cause it was 45 degrees but she was running fast today. Some days more then othere so I may get a new ecm like the poster above....
What is the ecm????

The Engine Control Unit or ECU is a designated computer that was developed to manage the engine control system. The ECM consists of electronics which are mounted on a multi-layer circuit board. The ECM monitors and adjusts the air/fuel mixture
it just manages the air/fuel mixture and if you clean your injectors it make the spray coming out ignite better in the plugs which helps in the thottle

I don't like powering up at all really, it kinda scares me because of the speed you must be at to pull it. But ive got stock gearing, and I pulled it up in first on mine. Wasn't crazy wheelie stuntin but I pulled it up. Clutching is so much more fun..
