Ahhh, dont't let me spook you...just use a lot of throttle control, and don't roll on it too hard before you get the bike straightened up, and that shouldn't happen.

Must be a track newbie - Lights, signals not taped up, and mirrors still on the bike. Probably has street tires with 38psi of air in them, too. D'oh!!

Yeah, but they have a boat load of torque, and , from what I hear..albeit heresay, that is what does it to the rider. Too much throttle coming out of turns, causing tire spin, and low sides.

The rumble of a V-twin at a certain RPM is known to produce a frequency, speciific enough to elicit an orgasm from female riders. LOL ;)
