Hub....I was teasing you(all the while clicking my fingers)....geez man....

Mine is set how I want it.Not per your settings...they were okay....but you don't ride like I do....besides...I like experimenting.You didn't get it...what I was saying.Okay...sa'll okay.totally misinterpreted the whole thing...it wasn't ever about YOU....or me.....nevermind.Fun while it lasted though.I got a good LMAO out of it....thanks!


Start at the top....what's the topic?TC control and Greasy tires and 12 o'clocks.Where's that Cervix...I know I parked it somewhere around here...oh look...it's right over there by that darkie in that curve there...yeah...that's it.I couldn't get er to spin on my straight run....maybe I shoulda leaned er a tad...whattaya think?Course,Brock himself had some traction issues while dynoing his 14R...KTRC on 1 I do believe.Third gear?They turned it off...that helped.


I'm the click clack king of the rim ram room doncha know.


"I've been asking for a little intervention video for how long, grn?"...shit...I've been waiting for some real riding skills videos from guys here for....shit...forever.You saw my intervention vids....time for someone else's now....my cards are on the table.....you've got a cam...YOU do some intervention stuff...I'd like to learn something more.I'm limited by my lack of ability...but you're not.I can only get my bird to spin the rear wheel in KTRC-off.I don't consider a split second spin a 'real' wheel spin.(like I get in KTRC-1).My ABS don't work so great on sand either...but I didn't really expect it to.

And you can bet I aint gonna full throttle er leaned over at 100 mph.KTRC or no.But YOU should be able to handle it quite easily....and get some good KTRC footage of yer wheel hookin up.I always want to try and learn more.Don't you want me to learn more?There's a few elite here that can really ride....you guys ought to be gettin videos of these sessions and postin em up....I for one would love to see some of this...on a 14(R).

Shit, I was the one laughing bringing in the cervix comments and how you ride and how you don't really ride the bikes potential let alone have fun with the intervention on ice LOL. This bike is way over your head you chicken asstraight liner. IDK, eye was looking at the speedo and I was at 140 and golly gee, I had an intervention up my swerve ex-cuses, excuses, excuses.

this is as close as I can get so far to getting my carve on as such....roads just too fkd up.I didn't dare push harder.1st time back there in a year...you never know what yer gonna get.Hopefully by Summer they'll have some of this shit smoothed out.Last year I was hitting this at 130...140.Now THAT's a ride.This is only PART of this run...lots more further on down....I accidently deleted that vid from my library thinking it was something else.Oh well...


In keeping with this topic...Brock discovered a 'safe mode' that intervened at a brisk gearing and rpm condition....different from the KTRC settings.Activated by a different programming parameter.This function he and Guhl disabled.It can ONLY be disabled by the flashing process.Not even by turning the KTRC off.Getting my drift yet are we?

Oh Shit!
Deer me...you see that prick on the side of the road there?I'd rather 'squirt through traffic';) I can live with 'excuses'...maybe enough to ride another day.


it aint freeway driving...

When you see this...you better pay attention...or you get this....They're lucky...that would have destroyed a sportbike.

All the skills in the world won't get ya outta these.

Ha ha ha! Awesome! Funny shit!
I find that the level of tc intervention in mode 1 is perfect for post apex throttle application. That slight slip and grip is smooth and gradual when leaned over and accerating out of corners. That is just my experience and I am applying aggressive throttle. No one designed krtc for fing wheelies! :))) just sayin.

Riding F ast, Trac 1, going to turn track off next run. She is a monster beast...muhuhuhuhahahaha!

As for hitting a deer, damb, can't imagine! Almost hit a Marmot on the 401 coming back from Dave905's place at like 180 km. It scared the banjo out of me!

Marmots will ruin yer day as well....slippery when hit!


Hub said..." how you don't really ride the bikes potential"...um...okay...show us how it's done then....PLEASE.I wanna know HOW.And you are KEEERECT!I aint GONNA ride this bike to it's 'potential'...not with other people driving and enjoying their families and such.So I can say 'what a hooligan I am' and pat myself on the back?No thanks.It's a street bike with street tires....get it?And a non-pro rider that's susceptible to 'getting it wrong'....and I'm just fine with that.

I heard that folks who ride the bike to its full potential should dawn a space suit! I can't get near that potential, I am just hanging on for dear life and pointing it!

Maybe I'm just fing nuts or something but I ride pretty hard when there are no cars around. I don't think about it like that. I own this bike to exploit its engineering to the fullest that I am capable. It never even crossed my mind to own it and just ride it around all gay and shit. That would be like owning a Veyron and never flooring the balls out of it. Only when there is no traffic, but it is easy for me to find empty roads where I live. I love the USA! :)))

"Maybe I'm just fing nuts or something but I ride pretty hard when there are no cars around"...I hear ya!...I think I may just be the afternoon entertainment for some of these places I pass by on some of these roads I ride...Farms and stuff...you know...off a ways...house there with big picture windows...nice BIG ass sweeper running through that little 'ranch' they have there.I always wave when I'm rollin through...Sometimes they're out there on their tractors and such...they always wave back...as I hammer it on up the curve and into the next right hander;)


The green missile...that's probably what they're thinkin...or maybe.."that fuckin idiot...on that green bike...here he comes agin ma...get the shotgun";)..hell,if I did lose it right there...my ass would end up in a nice soft cow pasture anyway...no danger there for anyone.Might even live through it....course,I'd have to time my over the bars practice just right so's I could clear that barbed wire fence they got there to keep them cows in.;)

HAHAHAHAHAHA Green missile and sticking the landing.

Will you be playing Eye of the Tiger or Staying Alive in your earbuds as you launch through the air in your space suit?

Wait don't they make a riding jacket that inflates into a large ball to save the rider. You could easily cascade across the fields and avoid injury...Xmas list anyone?

I've got this exit ramp wired. 120 is average. 140 is I feel sporty. 160+ I wish I had the ABS but I stopped with the fronts anyway before I hit the intersection. That's why it's fun watching zipper, reach around her, whipping out the wallet and wank key thinking, "IDK, I'm HA going pee tea fast aroundis corn near... Yeah, near lee got it outta 2nd.

Okay, back to ABS if 'traction control IS QUICK!' What's we got for this one, grennie? Bring us dishit forward.

Ears watt happened. Like grn, the yellows are stacking up. I'm getting mowed down by traffic. I may pass one or two cars in the right lane moving under the speed limit. That is the only time I try to hammer the bike with that super grunt give me any gear I'm in. So the zip bye it, the intervention of the subs just flapping away. I was hearing this a lot yesterday. That's one program down.

Splitting lanes there and back, I'm getting too old for this. I could not fly with the hole made by the other splitters moving a lot faster. No, I now let them go and not lead getting a big gap away from them come get me. Back to the split, I see my gap closing. Interpose number two comes into play.

Right up to the last second losing that mirror, the ABS sure may have disrupted the tire chirp, me on the squeeze, the truck bed's corner about to punch the back of the mirror it was so close. While this was happening, everything slows down is your existence about to change. I'm trying to keep everything down in my throat; the squeeze is on; the brake(s) applied; the closing down of the distance; the intervention?

You guys/gals are missing some gaga electrics from electrics past. That POS bmw gs had ABS on it. It would hammer on and off, shake the chassis right up youreach around. I felt nothing and I'm sure that gap closing in on me had to set it in motion, I don't know? Smooth like it was not even on or noticeable. WATT a difference between those gaps in the tech of it.

Only kiddin grn. But I never use the high beam passing switch because your high beams should always be on during the day at least. It makes sure they see you coming. Never ever turn them off. Just stand in front of your bike with them off and in the sun you can barely see em. High beams could save your life. Where I live you are taught when getting your license to always have them on during the day.

The same goes for me. I was always taught to drive with the highs on during the day.
