You know what they say about wheelies. Something about, if you’re not falling, you’re not learning right. :lol Rather learn the concept on a cheap motard, and not crash the R6. I did a few clutch-ups on my Z1000 last year, but I’d always come down with the wheel slightly turned, which could result in a tank slapper so I stopped trying. Z1000 I was doing 2nd gear clutch ups at like 4k RPM’s. :crackup ---

Been meaning to take the decals off my bike for awhile now, finally got around to it this weekend. Before: ![http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/041.jpg](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/041.jpg) After: ![http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/042.jpg](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/042.jpg) ![http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/043.jpg](http://i134.photobucket.com/albums/q90/UpstateCivic/043.jpg) Only reason those last flames are on there is because they’re cleared over on the tank so I can’t get them off. Tank grips will cover them though and they should be delivered soon. ---

Yes, the tank flames are under the clearcoat. Once the tank grips are on it will cover them anyway. ---

Looks so much better! Now if you wanted, you could get your wheels powdered any color you want and it’ll go good with the bike. I wish my 636 wasn’t a POS with it’s faulty engine. When it ran right, it was an awesome bike. I definitely didn’t have enough time to enjoy it. ---
