Nine Two Nizle
I rode my boys 929 last night and WOW! that is a F'n nice bike. I love my 900rr but the power & response of the fuel injection is off tha hook. I might have to buy one up when my 900rr craps the bed.
dont have much time on it so i wasn't bustin out any 12's or anything.

i have 2 929's and i hopped on my buddies 900rr and i like hte stoppies on them better. there is some weird *** headshake problems on the 929 that i don't like. other than that i love the bike. it seems difficult to 12 though, cbo said the same thing, he said it's awsome to 12, but he can see that it would be hard to learn 12'ving it.

I rode a friends 929 the other day with completley stock gearing. As slow as I'd go, it just didnt wanna stall. I loved it

I love my 929. I have a Scotts damper too. I've never had a bad slapper from setting down a wheelie, even going around turns. It will try to slap when I'm doing stoppies. Nothing bad enough that I couldn't get out of it though, knock on wood. One thing I didn't like at first was that it felt really small but pretty much all newer sport bikes are small now, except the Gix 1000.

ya, it feels small, but not anything like the 954, that thing is tiny feeling.
but ya, i get headshake. if you just do like 30mph stoppies you won't notice it, but i do fast assed stoppies trying to roll. I'm up to 150 feet andi want to go more but when i flipped doing 80 cause of a slapper while doinga stoppie it kinda shot me down. that hurt bad, not really anyway to get out of it and at that speed it happened so fast i couldn't react.
