dumb question my boy asked
Bet your buddy was a blast to drive with!
Oh yeah, we had some insane times, unfortunately he got caught far more often than I did. We were out on our bikes one night, about 5 of us, and he was into doing wheelies. He was trying really hard to get his Honda CB900 Custom to pick up the front end but it just kept spinning the back tire. After at least a dozen tries he finally got it up and was standing it on the back fender, engine screaming, probably doing about 45 or 50 mph in a 30 zone when he passed a cruiser. I couldn't help myself, I burst out laughing, there he is, in the middle of a monster wheelie, when he looks to the right, there's the cops! Not sure how many tickets that cost him, but it was a few. That one summer he went through 5 back tires, a clutch, and a motor on a brand new bike.
He had a 69 Dart GTS as well, bought it as a roller, dropped in a 318/904, still had the 3.91 gears with the sure grip, that car was a blast, even with the 318.
