    Cool bike ! I converted a 03 Yamaha Roadstar to suicide clutch/jockey shift and man I gotta tell you, it took me awhile to get used to that setup. Can't imagine having that setup with no front brake and having to stop on a hill. Definitely would take some skill in that situation. Props to you for your riding skills my brother !

    Absolutely wicked 💪….a real man’s machine…btw they do run cooler because they have a much lower compression ratio…the tricked out WLAs had bigger heads and cooling fins for the cylinder to handle the whopping 8.5-1 race compression…stock is around 6-1, lower compression always equals less heat with an air cooled machine

    How are those" bozos" supposed to get a start in the industry if nobody will put them in a shop I went to MMI in Florida and nobody wanted to hire me even though I went to school and was a trained tech ended up working in auto garages instead of what I paid to learn and what I wanted to do at least I don't have to take my dirt bike anywhere to get work done unless I need something pressed but I wish someone would of gave this "bozo" a chance I'm still passionate about working and riding it's never faded someone lost out on a dedicated employee
