  • hey, couple questions for you sir; did you get a chance to see what your engine temp does in the city? Also, what kind of oil are you running? Thanks.

  • I haven't changed oil yet so I don't know what's in there I just got bike. But I will be putting in full synthetic Golden Spectro brand most likely this month. The temp is under 200 always on the freeway in 70 degree weather around 189 but on the streets in stop and go with the heat around 95degrees out here in California the bike will hit over 200. I plan on putting in a thicker oil for this heat and then when the weather gets colder maybe a 1040 full synthetic.

  • i looked them up there $11 heres the web sight shock

  • hey thanks that was kind of you to do that I appreciate it.

  • here's an easy solution. Crotch rockets cause you to put too much weight on your wrists. This cause blood circulation to be reduced. The easiest solution is to buy a cruiser. BTW I have a throttle rocket too.

  • hey man I had a question I don't know why if its just looks or does it help when those guys have ape hangars where the handlebars are way up high. Is that for style do you know or is it beneficial to blood flow in the arms or something? Have you heard anything about that?

  • @3:05.....what the heck's these things? Love your play by play.....

  • @shockofgod it's funny, I was at the dealer the other day looking for first bikes (I'm a cruiser guy, being raised on them with my mom and dad riding) but I sat on the rockets just out of curiosity (known affectionately to cruisers as "squids" =P)....you would think that upright, leaning-forward position would actually increase blood flow to your hands...

    ...and as far as ape hangars...well, all families have to have their runt of the litter, right? :)

  • How many CC does that bike have?

  • "fastest highway in calafornia" zooms past everyone

  • I drive a BMW K1200LT. Have electronic cruise control. I have bad Carpal Tunnel Syndrome from driving truck so My hand falls asleep in 5 minutes of driving. With cruise control I drive one handed switching left and right. Wouldn't drive without it... Nice videos BTW. God Bless..

  • I'll pretty much call you a pro since you can talk and hold a camera on a motorcycle at the same time releasing your hands off and on the throttle.

  • That's funny, shock.
