Re: Pictures from yesterdays Loop

and the last few.

summary: as you can see from the pics this is why i hate these little POS frame sliders, didnt really protect **** i mean alittle bit but thats alot of damage that an extended frame slider woulda prevented. Goes to show that the people that make the flashy little "it looks cool" stuff dont think about durability.

I should be able to ziptie alot of the **** back together, but id really like to fix it up this winter (i love having a "nice bike" call me a glama stunna i dont care lol) and it would have a cage and bar most likely if i went that route. damages arnt to aweful but it still sucks.

Re: Pictures from yesterdays Loop

I already intended on gettin a crash cage this winter... just didnt make it quite long enough i guess lol *shrugg* oh well like they say its not about IF its when and it was my time.

The Nova in the background of these pics is my dads completely restored... its sweet

My Nova on the other hand ('74 SS) is rockin the primer and mostly stock except the 2 g's i got into the audio system.

Edit: I pulled the wheelie up at maybe 5-10 MPH and got up to maybe 25 MPH befor it looped. Its definatly not goin to scare me away from wheelies, but ill probalby have the bike geared next summer so ill definatly be takin my time the first few weeks.

Re: Pictures from yesterdays Loop

yeah ill probably shorten that pipe down a few inches.

Parents are pissed off that i "wasted so much money"

This goes as a lesson to all you riders thinkin about buyin a pretty bike for your first bike (i also didnt think id get into stunting like i am) dont waste your money haha.

oh definatly, i already looked and i can put together my whole bike again with just zipties (except the crank case, and if i wanted to do that cheap id just got get some JB weld heh)

Its just the fact that i love gettin comments from people saying "nice bike" and when its scratched and beat up it shows you ride it, but you dont get the "nice bike" comments as much.

Id like to just give it one more round, fix the plastics/paint have a cage and bar and go nuts from there... whatever happens happens lol.
