    110 in first gear is one way to destroy your tranny. I'm an avid motorcyclist and see many kids out there ruining their fork seals, gears, and engines by doing tricks on the road. But it's your bike and your life. Just stay away from me.

    They are Kevlar lined. I’m almost fifty and haven’t touched the rev limiter in years. And I’m smart enough to know the only place you can really get on it is at the track and the on ramp of a highway....

    Well +1 for kevlar lined.

    We all know its not if but when. You don't need to be "getting on it" to have a bad day.
