Thats my missus taking the shot, she's a keen digi photographer, I think the processing is called HDR (dont ask what it stands for??? Im clueless) I just hook the begger up and wife does the rest LOL. Now, how the fook do you get a zxr400 on one wheel, I got about three feet (long not high) by pinning the throttle, popping the clutch, standing up and bouncing the front but it just wont stay there cause there's no torque. I'll get it right in the spring (or die trying lol).

Bit silly riding with no gear. Nice wheelie anyway.

Scott, I agree mate.

I did have armoured jacket and lid on but it was fooking hot and I'd just stopped for a break. This one was a 'sighting' shot but was actually the best shot of the session. This was all first gear stuff so I'm thinking it'll be fine. While I was up there I noticed that I was putting the front wheel down and about 50-60 mph!! Got the lid and jacket on pretty quick after that.

Also in defence, its soooo easy on this bike. Technique for wheelying...open throttle! no joke, wanna go higher, open throttle wider!!

Cheers bud.

Consider me reprimanded and a BAD MAN!! :pmsl
