I watched three minutes of it, and I felt like I was riding for the first time. Gives great perspective to the power between your legs.

I'm surprised he didn't mention anything about the heat coming out the right side of that thing. Its like every bit of heat the engine makes is directed at your toes.

Yeah that about sums up my first couple hours on the blade.

reminds me how sixxer used to try racing tom with tom's k5 in 6th and would still get rocked

Never ridden a liter bike myself, Tho i'm sure Id sound similar to how that guy sounds.

And yes I went toe to toe with my buddies K5 1k he was in 6th I was in 3rd...And he dusted me like I was standing still. We went again recently with me in 2nd...and I got the jump but once I hit 3rd he was GONE.

The power difference is insane.

I thought for sure you'd rode the blade once. You ought to try one sometime. He isint kidding about the need for speed nos blur. lol

I dont think he revved it past 8000 either. They're just starting to wake up at that point.

It's obvious he has ridden some kind of 4-cyl before, maybe a 600
