Cold start video. I was pleasantly surprised.

Found a new to me trail behind my place. Kinduvan extension of the "Ride Around The Hood", will get video soon. Until then, the first wreck on my Hawk wasn't even me. My brother-in-law Ray came by the house and I let him ride it. He put it right into the fence, lol. Wedged the front tire in good where you see the marks. Rotated the brake lever out of level and popped the mirror off. All was set right and I got him out on the road after a quick How To Feather The Clutch tutorial/refresher. Should've seen him speed shifting up the hill. I've never heard my bike while someone else is riding it. Sucker is LOUD with the new pipe and sounds freakin' awesome. Pics of the evidence:

It’s not “rays” fault ,the bike was delivered on a pallet ,and that “fence” is a pallet ,so really the bike was just heading home and ray was just along for the ride .
How long does a painted pallet last as a fence ?they rot really quickly at my camp unpainted ,so is it worth it to paint them ? |

Classic "I haven't ridden in years" mistake. He let the clutch out instead of pulling it back in. I thought I saw the front tire come off the ground. lol He throttled into that fence, and it took it better than any fence I've ever known. Didn't even punch thru with the tire, sucker got wedged instead.
Pallet fence is going 4 years strong thru harsh Wyoming winters. Definitely worth painting. In fact, I gotta get a fresh coat on it.
