Re: first tank stand

Both you guys are riding older bikes with chokes, right? I have a F2 and when I want to do a no-hander I pull the choke lever and select my speed using the gears. My bike will do a constant 45mph in 5th gear with the choke out. Total cruise control, you can ride for miles. Haven't tried a tank stander yet, but I have no problem on the seat.

and when you fall off, the bike keeps going on for miles, and miles.
