Great pix Eddie! :thumbup
Oh! and I'm not one to do squidly stuff, especially when my bike is dressed with "clean" plastics. So believe me, I had some help.......Eddie has a good way of minipulating people (sly) :toothless After all, he is the one that got me into Mini Racing :teeth
fyi..... this road was closed off to open traffic, which left it open for terrorizing and/or squidly behavior
:laughing
Btw, thanks Eddie for a day of fun and good food We need to do this again soon....and with more peeps

LMAO - I was playing devils advocate. YOU CAN DOOO EEEET!
After 50 miles of "ez" cruising, my bike died in Brentwood. I was like aawww fack - gawd I hope that wasn't a seizure. It died in the worse place too... no shoulder. Flipped the bike to Reserve and with no room to actually kick start it I pushed the kicker down with my arm... fired right up. whooh that was close
The 72cc, 24mm carb sure makes the bike thirsty. So by the time we got to the squid err test spot I'm was probably running on fumes.
I'll bust the video out of manimal once I figure this google thing out. The last time I uploaded my mpeg4 to google, it wasn't playble. I probably have to convert it though the google vid site says it can play mpeg4. Sony must have some kind of "lock" on the licence or something with their version of MP4 :mad

Yeah, your bogging had me worried for a moment. At first I thought it was a newbie pet-co*k move or that you were running out a fuel. Turns out is was "choke" related
.....sighs of reliefYeah, that 72cc kit sure did wake up that SM Derbi :thumbup compared to stock (top speed of 50mph :cry) I am so looking forward to eventually adding the kit to the Yerbi :teeth

Brad,
Say we join you on a City ride, which sounds like fun :teeth where would we possibly meet that would provide us to safely unload our transported bikes and that offers "free" parking?
ps, sorry for what may be a dumb question :toothless but, when I think of the City, all I can think of is steep elevation changes, One Way Only streets, payed parking only, and sh*ty arse drivers .....which is partly why I avoid going to the City all together *cries laughing*

At my house. yes there is some steep spots for sure. Not sure how a 2 stroke would fare but my 108 4 stroke does just fine. there are only a few good spots for turns other then that city cruzin is all about getting looks and seeing the sights.

Let's plan something in Aug (after Race 6). I'm all for cruizin' .........ps we'll leave the squidly stuff to you since your well experienced at it we'll just be your entourage :laughing
Btw, how far are you from the typical cruizin' spots (Warf and what not)?
Keep in mind, us 2-smokers need to avoid steep grades as much as possibly (burning up the clutch and being able to stay within the p-band for power :toothless)

i live south of mission so pretty much the other side of the city from all the cool spots, but im down to start where ever. After aug works for me too as i should have my 137cc motor installed. So i guess all my fun routes through twin peaks wouldnt really work for you 2 strokers. Will have to come up with some sort of flat route.
