That is some freaky shit watching them kicking those harleys like that. The first harley I started, was a 108" Shovel Stroker with a bicycle kicker, I gave it all I had and the fuker kicked back on me and fractured my femur!

Here is something real smart on my part, last year I got back into riding after a hiatus. Picked up a near mint 1990 500. Trying to start it, it felt like it had compression twice what I remembered, and it wouldn't idle. But I couldn't believe the compression. So after a lot of cussing and replacing crank seals 2 times, Rob129 gave me some help, turns out the guy I got the bike from had put the piston in backwards! dee deedee. :oops:
