another a-hole

I just picked up a new fiddy the other day...And just for fun I put it on the radar and got 26 mph out of it...it was maybe two hours old when I tested it and I didn't have alot of running room...chocha says lt'll get faster as it breaks in...but we'll see, I'll put it back on the radar in a couple of weeks

Re: another a-hole

I ran Buzzman when I first got my fiddy...he blew me away. I put street tires on, and whoosh! Seems much faster now since there isn't nearly as much resistance while rolling. Also I'm 216lbs, which doesn't help

EDIT: just weighed myself..209lbs now. Must've sweat off 7 lbs doing wheelies

Cheapies...Cheng Shin (scooter) tires. $15 each (had one already in the garage as a spare for the Killin' Spree). Some of them look cooler, like actual sportbike tires, but I don't think it really makes a lot of difference. Ditchin' the knobbies makes a big difference though.
