Me and a few buddys were out messing around in the field w/ the camera, My buddy just happened to have the camera on me as I ate a 4th gear wheelie, these pics are all captured from a video, thought it was pretty funny.. went to grab fifth gear and my left hand lost the grip, slid off the back, and of course tried riding it out, only to fail miserably. LOL. Atleast I kept the number one rule in mind, my feet didnt leave those pegs untill I was on my back. haha. Still getting used to having back brakes.

Heres a couple pics I took with my cam.. The first one is after i rolled the X over off its back, luckily all it did was move things around.. the second picture is after i got everything back in position;;

Nope, didnt break a single thing, that homemade grabbar is super sturdy.. The handlebars just turned in the clamps (leave them a little loose for that purpose), along with the levers.

Whatever ,,,

you stood that up on the bar like the the 110 i used to have - LOL !


at least the 3 of us ( you, trikeaholic + and i ) are bold enough to adimit it.

i have some decent scrar on my grab bar to show off on my X
( mine balances like a ole 90cc if you ain't to hard on the throttle )
