MAD KAW !!
Today I went riding with a couple of friends of mine; and we were on this long straight road. Seven miles of perfectly straight road to be exact. Anyway I let my friends get way out front; One has an 04 Gixxer 600 and the other has an 03 1200 Bandit. I was doing about 100mph and i just rolled on it hard in 6th gear. I didnt feel the need to down shift; anyway at about 9000 rpms at 137 mph I crested a slight and i mean slight knoll in the road. I didnt even realize it was there until the front end came up and when she came down she shook her head like a mad dog for about half a second. I could not believe the front end came up in 6th gear. Iam at the moment riding damper free. I do need one badly though. The front end is extremely light on acceleration . Hang on with both hands boys; shes MAD!

It shakes real bad when it gets into the higher revs, or coming out of a wheelie.
