[mrRin187]

[AridersLife]

@mrRin187 yeah they are, i will be doing a lams video really soon :)

[MrJordanConnolly]

@AridersLife Hey, do you think a 600 or 650 is an ok first bike? I live in a small town in a farming community, so there isnt much traffic, Im 6'2, and not a jackass haha I wont be out speeding or stunting.

[mrRin187]

@AridersLife looking forward to it =D

[ATOMARIEL]

takes time to practice bro nice demo video

[Brand0nClements]

ever thought of getting another drz? they look a lot of fun :)

[AridersLife]

@Brand0nClements i will get another in due time ;)

[diggman4123]

Good work mate. But you should really have your feet on the pedals. Especially if you twist the throttle too much. Tap the back break and the bike will come

Back down. I've got a husqvarna te450 at the moment and I'm looking for a new toy. How much roughly did you pay for the new bike your riding?

[AridersLife]

@diggman4123 this footage is back in 06 remember lol. as for new bike u mean the hornet? i payed 3400 for it.

[m0tyrider]

Aw man, You should have kept it! Did you ever loop it? I need to practice wheelies >_<

[AridersLife]

@m0tyrider i think i flipped it in this video some were. i will get another one

[RoadcraftNottingham]

I broke my wrist trying that on a DT175, mental block after that so can only watch in awe! lol

[AridersLife]

@RoadcraftNottingham but i still suck hahaha

[ToastToGo]

That is awesome. :D Why did you get rid of the bike? It looks like a ton of fun.

[AridersLife]

@ToastToGo just bought the bike, then lost my job, then couldn't find work.

[WildBill1006]

Your old newb wheelies are much better than I can do and by the way White socks FTW LOL

[ToastToGo]

@WildBill1006 What's wrong with white socks?!

[AridersLife]

@WildBill1006 lol yeh. its a bit obvious lol

[lauriejennifer]

It's a shame you don't still have the 'tard. They're the best! I know you miss it.

You do look like a total goon in this video, though. LOL You can wheelie and I suck at them, so it's not like I have any room to talk. Heh.

[AridersLife]

@lauriejennifer i will get another to vlog with soon :) possibly like 6 months lol

[lauriejennifer]

@AridersLife So, I have six months to get this hooligan thing down, before you show me how it's done. LOL

[gpzDave]

Haha you're a lot better than me, the only wheelie I ever did on my old SLR650 was pathetic :)

[AridersLife]

@gpzDave thats a solid bike tho. heavy looking thing.

[dmccfc1992]

Both feet out o.O fuck that! But you were pretty good fairplay

[AridersLife]

@dmccfc1992 was learning how to use engine brake, and how far back it could go before it wants to flip :)

[davetechme]

Good shit, Peter.

Will we be seeing any sportbike wheelie tutorials in the near future?

[AridersLife]

@davetechme lol, dunno. i still suck bad man, lol. if i get a chance to record some new footage i might post it up.  i still suck tho lol

[theROFLrobert]

[AridersLife]
