Default disappointing first ride

Took the new build out for its maiden run after being apart for 7 months, got beat by a 450r with a pipe........ several times. Kept blowing the tires off. Found out I can't do 4th gear starts. Third was blowing them out pretty bad. That was with 17-40 gearing on the stock tires on very hard pack dirt. I'll have to gear up some more ore get these guys in the sand. I think it'll be fine if it will stay together.

Actually I'm thinking of letting it sit till the Genoa jamboree, that way I can say its run for 7 or 8 months without a failure. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-wink.gif[/img]
