I determine the length of the swing arm by how high I carry the front wheel out of the hole. I like no more than 1 foot. if it is less I shorten it up if it is more I lengthen it out. Then as a last resort I take my tape measure in hand and match what the top ten riders are running. John howell NAHA...

I look at hillclimbing this way any time you back out of the throttle it cost you 3 tenths of a second. Based on this I do not care what I ride as long as I can keep WOT. Other than that the rest is in setting up the suspension the length and the air pressures for the hill that you are riding.I pers...

Just say I ruined a perfectly good pair of flight deck boots from crawling around and blowing water out of the pad eyes.

Been a while since I was aboard the USS chandler DDG 996 November of 1997. I was accused of imitating a creature of the Neptunes domain - A sand crab. That is what they refer to when you were not supposed to be aboard. I think my charges were mouthing off to superiors and making more money than othe...

Gee Robbie I have the rules in front of me and it states rubber paddles only at Carnegie.

Please clarify.
Or has George changed his mind after the last few years. And if he has does this mean that we can run chains.

If I misread your statement then forget I said anything.

No on the one I road you just pull in on the clutch and down shift.
You can also slip the clutch while under full throttle.
John Howell

Kind of cool to pull up to the line in third and just rool it on. No stall just accelerate.

Well take heart at least you live within riding distance of some decent hills.

417 milles one way to my dads house. Not much here in AZ only pucker bushes and rocks. Heck no one will even invite me to show them how to climb here.

I invited Robbie to come out and play one time.

What you do not understand is that everytime that you let off the throttle that is 2 to 4 tenths of a second . When first to last place is determined by mere tenths you do not back down. That is what suspension is for suck it up go fast take chances. Win.

Thanks for the pictures of the mojave desert I was feeeling home sick.

I took some of that stuff for pain once. Won the hillclimb do not remember it though.

I remember when I was top twenty. I even had my own place to park.

I love to see my tax dollars at work .

Stock on most cr500 was about .100 to .140.

I buy groceries and gas on the credit because they give me 5% back for using their card that is better than cash or the bank. Just remember to pay it off every month.
