O yea...nice pics...does that bar let you get to "12" or is it a lil short of it?
are you landing it? can ya roll it out and scrape for some distance? i have been on mine for a fw days now...i can roll it out in 2nd gear...sometimes i have trouble mounting back up and riding it out...one more week and ill be scraping 50+ feet i got 20 feet now...it not as easy as it looks...people think its so easy...when infact its not.

Tried to tell everyone that these 12 bars are fun.....

Black top you slide forever......concrete not as much.....

Best thing about the FI 12 bar - is the replaceable plate - cause when you wear it out - you are gona have to reweld another plate on those other brands....right ?

Nice pics


Robbie - sometimes you kinda gotta throw yourself forward some if you are not going fast enough.......try a killroy - it is fun..

hell yeah, ***** a blast.

i parked it & saw it from the side - its at true 12:00. I can drag it for a while & get back on, or drag it to a stop. Just make sure you put it on the plate even, or it gets ugly!!!

i tried a killroy - wabbled all over the place.

stock gearing it did for me too....then I went up 2 on the rear and it seemed to help - or I just got more practice ? lol....

Try this - do a wheelie then grab the handle bars in the middle on the pad, then with two fingers grab the throtle cable and then let go of the throtle and then lean back and 12 it = then nail the rear brake and ride back out of it.....pretty fun - but scary....I have only done it twice - the first time - I lost it and me and the bike went sliding.....lol

*I also JB Welded some titaium to the skid plate - for some extra spark...

PM Hawk on here to get it.....he can get it - proably not even charge you, just shipping......it is like the extra/scrap/left over stuff that he has at his work.

The bar also is making it easier for tight circles......I am like 3/4 of making a comple tight circle. Big circles I got - tight I do not......
