And I'm sure you have a hell of a lot more upper body strength then me. Girls have more lower body strength. I have skinny arms that won't do much if I needed to push or fell down :mope:Quote:

Oh btw gixxer i only weigh around 130 so no upper body haha, a lot of lower body thanks for my years bicycling.
Yup that's my size but you still have 5 inches on me you lucky bastard.
haha yea but my inseam is about 30in or so, something like that idk. I had mine lowered and hated, absolutely hated the lack of ground clearance.
I'm 6'1 and I cant flat foot my bike with both feet. Maybe I should lower it?
um im going to call bullshit on that one haha, unless you ride something with a 36in seat height.
(dirt bikes) or in Richie's case a Motard. Those bastards are high
35.4 as a matter of fact.Quote:

you know, just if you get bored one day... :wink:
She knows. In a rather long winded, detailed fashion. No idea how, of course, but I've got a source that says so. Can't remember said sources name though.Quote:

Yah but they can't get you for the little off-the line wheelie can they?Quote:

I need to learn how to shift my wheelies.
How do you get your youtube videos to preview in the thread as in page one of this thread?
Ugh yah well I can't back it up a hill. That bike weighs more than 3x what I weigh. True it is light as far as bikes go but 400lbs with all the fluids still isn't lightQuote:

Oh I know it will, I'm just talking about me not being able to push 400lbs up hill!Quote:
