I'm sure I could clutch it up in 1st. And, to be honest, I did a late release once on 2nd after heading away from a stop light, and I wasn't expecting the high RPM punch on a late release. Tire never came up, but the front WAS light, so I'll give it a little credit.

I'd like to add 3 in the back and get a new chain, but my problem is that I need 70mph and I'm not too sure of what RPM range I'd be in at 70mph.

I like to get a little squirrely on the bike; my last one was a CBR10000RR and I loved totin' a wheel at 90mph. A shame I can't goose it up at even 30mph.

First off it just a lil trail bike, what did ya expect. But run her through sugar sand trails between palmettos and pines at 40+ and it can get squirrely REAL fast..lol. I have some classic wipeouts to prove it.

Goose up at 30 stock, no way.....yank up... sure.

Careful thou....you may end up trying to run at 30 mph if you yank and clutch too hard.

Cool. Maybe he'll chime in on my SC rider's thread. Got any good moto-parks in FL?

(To the OP, sorry for the hijack!)

Don't worry about the hijack....they can chime in and post what they want.

In my best Palin voice....you betch-ya. A few thousand square miles in the Ocala National Forest....aka the scrub....more soft sand, mud and swamp than you can shake a stick at.

Come on down some weekend this winter.
