Not impressive. Not even close. And burnouts should at least be done in 2nd gear, 3rd or 4th if you’ve got the power. All noise and no smoke = lame ass burnout.

Try doing that in a confined space with a stick with 28" tall MT Drag Radials. I got the “You won’t do it” speach. And I do agree, 2nd gear is the way to go, but not in this one.

I do \<3 burn outs though…when has the burn out been referred to as “roaching”? I feel that hippies and car guys should never be friends.

There was some picture of a bike doing a burnout with the rear tire on fire with “roach the tires” across the bottom of the picture and it was all over forums like 5 years ago. I think i first saw it on ubrf, wish I could find the picture.
