LOL ..trade? I pretty much have this bike without the 110, duals and Agitator wheels, which I plan on doing all in the next year or so ... maybe just a cam'ed 103 instead of the 110?

O yeah Victory makes some very unique and cool looking bikes ... with the exception of the BUTT UGLY touring bike!

anyone hear about the wreck on rt30 with the bike? Let me just say WEAR A HELMET! and if you dont think it will save your life your wrong.. I watched that guy die that day and watched for numerous minutes the lady try to give him cpr while me and another lady called for the ambulance.. It is something i probably will NEVER get out of my head.

And everyone out there, be aware of your surroundings and keep your eye out.. People do not give us any respect when we are out there riding.

Agreed. Didnt witness this but always keep your head safe

**Inkdcountryboy** · 07-28-2010, 11:25 PM

most people dont wear legal helmets anyhow so most dont help... Full face or bust buddy.. my ol lady wrecked and totalled her S40 2 weeks ago.. no helmet.. 14 stitches and banged up.. coulda been alot worse...

I personally never wear a helmet...i see people who are veggies after wrecking..i wont go through that...but each their own..i respect both choices..

BTW Mark post those pics up..i didnt sweat my balls off for nothing! LOL

I took off the 16 tooth front sprocket and put a 15 on today with some new pilot power 2CT and MAN did it wake the bike up. It'll clutch up in 3rd all day

Hard to do?

People say the 1000 will wheelie by cracking the throttle but usually if I get over the tank I can keep her about 8 inches off the ground or lower. Now if I have it hammered and go to second without letting off, it'll stand straight up!!

...and my new found trick is an endo. HAHAHA

**mr4teth** · 07-29-2010, 07:26 PM

Why are you teasing me with this text PIC?

**Inkdcountryboy** · 07-30-2010, 12:56 PM

it'll power up ~6 inches in first and second with me in full tuck but when I wheelie it I don't power it up, clutch ups are more controlled IMO and that's the vibe I've gotten from other people into wheelies. in second at about 7500rmps i just pull the clutch in for half a second and an the same time drop the throttle and lean back until it comes up to my chest. in 3rd i do this weird seat bounce to a stand up, that's how most of my high/far ones are born lol Oh and i forgot one huge part COVER THAT REAR BRAKE...it's saved me countless times.

as far as stoppies, i'm trying to get them rolling so i can get away from the sketchy quick ones.
