Exclamation coasters are getting longer, 633 feet!!!!

ok, went to practice today cause it was a beautiful 53 degrees. Shawn, my room mate, went with me. We didn't bring the camera cause i didn't think i would be doing anything impressive. Low and behold, i was coming in faster now, 55-60mph, and we marked it off, it was .12 mile on my GPS which computes to 633.6 feet.....totally sweet.

i kept coming in faster but i would mess up my balance and have to set it down.

yay, tomorrow is gonna be nice so i'll bring the camera now that i know i can go distance. i had no idea it was that far til i got hte gps out and i was like, wonder how far .12 is, then i put it in the distance calculator and BAM, i was jumping around for joy...so cool. i love coasters.

oh ya, this was with idle set ti 1k rpms

this is where you are wrong my freind. get out a big spoon cause you're going to eat my ***.

that's why they are making it so you have to turn your bike off....even with teh clutch in it does still pull you, ask john from legion and darius...tehy both know cause they do long ones. you can feel the diff.

O.K. I'll give you that Under different conditions clutches grab and slip(warm/cold/oil type). I've also seen that even when the bike is in NEUTRAL on a rear stand that the wheel will turn slightly. Shut your mouth when you shut your bike off, OK?
