Good stuff man! Replace green with orange and that was me a few minutes before that when I went over that log before it was secured and it rolled on me. I must have been out of camera shot because I'm sure my peeps would have made sure that moment lived on forever if they could have. Good times, yes sir.

Thanks for filling me in, it's all just a blur for me. I couldn't remember if anyone was around to see it or not. I just remember popping the front up on that log and thinking, wait, this doesn't feel at all like it is supposed to ... now where is that eject button ... ah, there it is. Next think I know I'm dusting myself off, trying to figure out which way is up.

Good one, hadn't heard that one before.

Actually, I just turned over 1000 miles on the KaBooM on a ride yesterday. Hasn't given me any problems yet, other than learning its quirks like that catch can. It's been 100% reliable and loads of fun. I just put on a Rekluse Z-Start Pro auto clutch last weekend and I'm still trying it out, not sure if I like it or not. On the first ride I didn't care too much for it, but now I'm starting to warm up to its virtues. I'm not completely sold on it yet, but I'm leaning toward keeping it on as opposed to going back to stock. It really is pretty cool, especially its anti-stalling properties even if you lock up the rear tire without pulling the clutch. That opens up some interesting capabilities for tight technical stuff without having to be a master at expert clutch control.
