    Stuck in for the winter?

    Found a little clip I made on the way to Jax two years ago, running my Heritage with the 116, pulled out of a gas station and was loafing along around 65 coming up on a Big Dog type chopper fat tire and a RK.

    As I approached the bikes for some reason the guy in the Chopper felt compelled to show me that I couldn't keep up. I guess fat guys on bikes with windshields and bags smoking cigars are supposed to be slow ....:rant:

    You can tell when it hit it hard and went after him didn't take long, the tape jumps a bit with the harder acceleration so it looks shorter than it really is, and yeah I saw the car at the side road.

    BTW he tried it again at that Light you saw at the end, once I lit it up and roasted the rear tire, hooked it and launched he just backed up. :devil:

    I love sleepers...

    Draggin the chopper

    I have a couple more somewhere I'll have to look up, one is just hammering up the on ramp to the toll road, got a video running the dragon at night, it's a bit long, some more in the mountains. Haven't cut them down to a reasonable size yet.

    Never did catch up, at the light he was behind a car, tried to pull over to get to me but I was gone! :D
