First Real Ride with my Carpenter Head and Cam

[TriumPhil]

The Touring is heavier with a longer wheel base, mine really only lifts the front wheel with a pillion, the extra weight is all over the rear wheel, it normally breaks traction, even with a 200 rear tire.

You should equip that thang with a parachute-equipped ejection seat for your pillion rider, Tripps! Just in case, ya, know!

HOPE to be road testing the NEW TURBO ROCKET as we are dynotuning at the moment that should be an eye opening ride LOL

It's a delicate dance between rear wheel traction and keeping that front wheel in contact with the road as you get on the cams approaching 5500 RPM, as you well know, Claviger, so learning to control both yourself (especially your right wrist) and the power up there in the "fun zone", particularly in the lower gears, is a critical skill that Silverback riders must master

Keeping the front wheel on the ground is very overrated.

Honestly not much to see. Stock header, with the turbo hidden below the seat. It should be a serious sleeper.

YES you cant see the Turbo its a SLEEPER for sure and its not going to be a low HP setup for sissy owners but there is testing and tuning to be done and then HOW MUCH HORSEPOWER is enough for the power hungry Rocket owner that wants the fastest thing on the planet ?
