    Okay, I'll take a chance, and post just this one! The rest remain in the vault! It is a mutually assured destruction thing.

    Please keep in mind that Walt had NO rear brake! The officials still flagged him with a personal foul: helmet to the head. Of course, I was ticketed for driving on the wrong side of the road.

    We drink better than we ride, and we keep the cooler stocked. So we have some redeeming value. If you can redeem us!

    Great vids Jon, looks like fun back in MT. What is it with you and head-ons though? I seem to recall a near head on when you were riding my bike awhile back? :confused:
    All fun-

    Ecuvator - Yes, I had a near death experience with a Yamaha rider in Bend last fall while riding your WB165. For a while, I thought my wife might have been on the Yamaha since that rider seemed to take their half out of the middle too! I guess when you only look 5 feet down the trail, things like this happen. Someday i'll learn................maybe. FYI - Walt talked me into the Fasst Flex bars today. Thanks for you help with that too. I really look forward to a little relief. At the speeds that I carry, they should really help...............LOL!

    With all the interest in the Lectron, here is a subjective, mostly sound, comparison between the Lectron and Keihin. They sound similar, but the Lectron seems to run better at all RPM's. These videos were taken a year apart on the same hill, the same bike, the same camera, and same rider - me! I'm still slow but getting better! I did not post the numerous wrecks because they always seem to include bad language. Walt has a video of a few of my messes on that same hill from my 2011 on about my 6th ride ever! I hope he doesn't dig them out!
