A few videos of my 904

My brother shot these in front of our apt this evening just to get the sound and fury on record. It's me riding my 904, it's running great, and the sound really came out good. It's cool "hearing" your bike when you're not on it!

sweeet.
Your front end got pretty lite on the last one. Those spring get pretty tired . It's nice to see that you give them a rest sometimes.
what you think. Loose a tooth in the front and really get it off the ground?
I hope your neighbors hate you. It would be a shame for all that effort, money and hard work to go to waste.

It will hoist the front wheel pretty easily if I'm going a little faster and gun it, I need to be going about 10-15mph in 1st then nail it and up it comes, and usually comes up again when shifting into 2nd afterwards. I didn't have enough road (or time before the neighbors called the po-po) on our street.

I'm usually sneaking out as quietly as possible...but this was an impromtu photo-op.

Here ya go MES, the wheel comes up a wittle bit:

Also, for my next mod I'm installing 17'' aluminum mag wheels that are much lighter than stock, and installing a 1 tooth larger rear sprocket. That should make the front end even lighter.

oh yeah that's the berrys. can definately tell that it wants to come up if you get on the throttle. That exhaust is something else.

the extra tooth in back is going to help.
I haven't kept up with your rebuild saga. What #s are you pulling these days. The torque got to be up there.
