hey, happy go lucky enthusists, i got a problem (Besides spelling)I want to (practice, b4 accidently!!) back it into a corner!!!!!!! But... I'm try'n to figure out just how much these "linked brakes"(94 1000f) are going to respond... "down", in to front too? will the rear pivot faster, as the front, brakes also... the last thing i want is to end up trying to, "gas on flat track"my way thru, after ending up "set up" way to early, before the apex. (sounds like a killer setup for a historical high side !!!!!!!!!!) Any advice??? w/ the linked setup, I dont really feel comfortable try'n it in the dirt first... fear of wash out!!!!!! or is this like a frnt wheel drive car and I just toss it out there w/ massive oversteer !!!!!!! I know you guys don't care... exept, you all, WANT to see the video !!!!!!!!!!! Maybe, I should just get a "safer" new hobby, like colorful frog licking... Clean and free, only smoke'n harleys...HONEST!!!!!!!!!!! Ripp'n ( nice, know'n ya !!!!!)

I backed mine into a guard rail at about 100. Does that count?

It was very hard on the rear wheel, swing arm, exhaust, seat, footpegs, mirrors, gas tank, tailight, handlebar, clutch master, bar switch, gauge mounts, windscreen, etc etc etc. Other than that list and some more, she was fine.
