Default Gave a Hardley a chance

Last night was out riding with some buddys of mine, and towards the end of the night it ended up with me on my ninja, a buddy on his yamaha cruiser and his brother on a hardley. Oh I also had my buddy on the yamahas 17yo daughter with me. Well the hardley boy decides he wants to test out his bike as he just got it last week. So we go to a road we know wont have any cops on it and no animals. Well I told her to hold on tight, gave him about 5 bike lengths with of space, then took off after him. I even short shifted cuz I didnt want her extra 100lbs of weight to bring up the front. Needless to say I still beat him. Were gonna do it again next week sometime during the day probably....and make it so I dont have a passenger so I can redline her. I was just too scared of something happening to her so I didnt push him bad.


Oh and im still messing around with fuel maps.

i believe it was a 1200 sportster. Im not really concerned about beating him as theres no comparison...especially if we both go at the same time. I let him get ahead to give him a chance.

Hardley riders always think they are so big and badass.........maybe not your friend, but, most of em. What they may not realize is that my bike [sm=icon_rock.gif] has just about the same HP as an 883................And WHAT did you spend on that HOG??????????[sm=icon_rofl.gif]

lol that's not really giving him a chance, should of just told him you'd only use 3 gears and give him a half mile head start. O
