On the way to a custom bike show this morning we stopped by Mean Street Cycles, where I get my bike worked on. John the owner wanted to take some pictures of my bike to put on his website. These guys are great friends and great with bikes. John took a couple of still pictures of us with the bike then he brought up that we all need nicknames. Since I fried my clutch doing burnouts a month ago, everyone decided my nickname would be "clutch" RJ Naylor is a custom bike builder from Phoenix with many awards for custom bikes he has built. Since RJ put the new 9 plate Scorpion clutch in my bike he volunteered to show me the right way to do a burnout without burning up the clutch. Now this video will be edited and end up on their website also. I'm thinkin about putting a short sound clip of Blue Oyster Cults song, "Burnin for you" on the video. I know this won't do anyone any good but here is the link to their website. www.meanstreetcycles.com/Now a couple of still pics. then the video.

Maybe 3 miles of tire. I should have filmed my burnouts from last month. They were in the dark with the street light on and all my red engine lights on. Those burnouts probly ate about 50 miles of tire each, they filled the block with smoke.

It's fun and I like the smell of tire smoke in the morning.... I'm still working on the flame thrower exhaust also.
