Hub how did you get your tank to change colors?

Romes, I troll for squids on my bike. The black bike is history. I slid that thing down the road going over 90mph with sweats, sneakers and a t-shirt. I woke up from the burning. I said this was way too fast and I was not about to make it. You see me lay my head down to die, literally I had that much time to think as I was being burned alive, basically, is that patch on the helmet face.

BlackMule-1 sent me flying because the throttle locked open I could not close it, nor had time to know it was happening. The Silver tank color change is to keep tuning it to hunt you motherfukers down, butt inn a nice way about it and give you a handicap go ahead, I'll catch up shortly....

I'm arranging someone's funeral = I WILL SURVIVE! Kind of hidden meaning all symbolic in the squid section did I dump the vid.

BlackMule-1 sent me flying because the throttle locked open I could not close it,

Wow, were you able to find out what was the cause? I could do with out that Shock. I take it you got cut off?

Trolling for Squids dressed like that can't be good. Did you find one and that's how this happened? Love to here the full story on that one. So would assume you have a parts bike?

Just watched the vid......whatcha doin with the wifes happy toy? Was that a fish hook?

I have an 07. Hub what were you doing on the silver bike wireing up some turn signals. Just dont get HUB drunk, hell I cant understand him now!

Love to here the full story on that one. So would assume you have a parts bike? No. The bike was a total. You are seeing me in shock with a broken foot I did not know I had? My one hand became useless and I wonder how guys come home from war, lose a limb and now fend for yourself opening a can, or prepare food to survive. I've crashed a lot. So, I sort of know my body and you gain this pain of tolerance level that you have to endure or you... Anyway, I think the truck came to pick up [Bk/Mule-1] the next day. I was now in limbo and serving; 'sheet time' for the next 4 months, healing up in bed. Gimp to the toilet. Gimp to the shower and take on water, which btw, healed my skin faster each time I showered [watching my body survive all these crashes].

You can see the cases ground down, we were both hauling on the cement like a cheese grader on a block of cheezis, ZI love pain. So, I took the insurance money, bought a silver '08 with the '06 insurance of the black bike. I know what both bikes respond like.

You missed the old website, where I woke up from a tre nightmare from that crash. I started to wonder what fuel injection was, being away from riding bikes for about 7 years. The tech passed me up, [not owning current bikes within that window of time], where I stopped working on bikes when the Busa first came out. I serviced a few Busas before I retired from the line work. That was the beginning of true FI on bikes. They phased out bikes that used plain old electronic ignition > Replacing points and condensers. That window went from electronic ignition and carbs, to fuel injection and no carbs. I went to bed with no electronics to adjust for tuning, once I started to work on Mule-1.

I was lost before the crash. I had no clue about the bike WOT so ever, until one of the members came along and schooled me on a step. I then made a wire harness and stuffed it near the throttle cranking part. It found it's way under the mechanism and kept it open. Can you imagine [full] WOT happens next? I think I told this story before, but it's good trying to figure out what gear I was stopped in? Someone took the bike out of gear and I was in shock at the scene with internal damage. All I remember was looking down an maybe recognizing 92mph on the meter? I was still going through gear, but she stood on one wheel to throw me off the back. That is all I can recall.

YOu have to remember; with Bk/Mule's [day of crash] I had zero piggy, no air cleaner installed in the ram, and no flies. If the GPS wire was going on, I don't remember if it was on or not? But, with even that much tune; would make the bike wheel stand with ease. Bk/M-1's hackstarting point, was tucked like a wrapped cocoon> Too near the throttle body. The silver bike continues like a spider building web on drugs. WATT a mess of extra wires building-out of the bike. You did not see the left side, which is almost as busy.

From computer bike 'culture shock,' to slowly finding out what the bike functions like, I have a fuel cutter (piggy) at my command. I have a flowing exhaust as quiet as if it were a 4-in-1. I have to pull over and yank air cleaner, I find a squid taking the bait. And now, hook the old lady's tool(?) is hook [bad-bad comedy] lines here or there, then sink her deep in the head of that dick is get a clue I scream; "I don't think so" in the wide band vid, you think you have bike and I am matching your tuneup moves like we are now all even up I still have fiffy buckiss my ass!

Time to pull you your wank her and beat it or get the fuck out of the way throw throttle at it why did you tune the thing up then?... ZX-14 kind of story, you are up to date.

Think I saw that vid last year-Really glad you survived that one-someone wanted you around a bit longer!PLEASE be careful with your testing deals will ya?Ya...I agree with another poster here-return yer rear brake asap..okay?

I was thinking that's what happened but dismissed it. 92 Mph with a stand up, then get flipped off = yikes. Did any one see this happen. How long before Help arrives.

I have an 07

Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out Out. Use a Dyno jet Map for now and prepare 4 the bike you thought you bought.Weeeeeeeeeeeee. I have removed the flies from three zx-14s. The smile was worth every second of my time. Buck, you should try and find another member and switch. Proof is in the pudding. Now get those flies out.

Did any one see this happen. How long before Help arrives.

I had a nice guy in a truck [saw it all] drive slow next to me, as I got up and walked back to the bike. He's talking to me saying he rides and wanted to help. I declined. I was more wanting someone to pick the bike up so I could roll it off the freeway. I had an audience, because I crashed when people were coming home from work.

I would look up the road, see how much I am backing up traffic with all the looky-loos gawking at the scene. Now the chippy comes up behind me and the bike. When you go into shock, you want a cold drink so bad. I ask the officer to let me have a drink. He says, when you are like that, you have internal injuries going on so he declined. Hell, I had everything going on from inside out.

I then said if he could pick the bike up for me so I can roll home with it, or as far as I could walk with. Nope. No water, no help lifting the bike up. Now here comes a big time captain chief of accidents or something? He's checking my eyes for drugs and seeing if I had something to drink. He clears me of those.

My nephew comes, lifts the bike up. I tell the accident chief I think the throttle stuck. He and I go to the bike and I already figured out WOT happened and could feel it at the grip. The home made harness was still in position locking the throttle some. It was all legit. No ticket.

Lucky I had my cell and my nephew was still close by to pick me up. He takes me home so we can wait for the flatbed truck and roll the bike in for me. When we get home, I head right to that fridge for a cold water bottle. What a relief, you are back to self mending for that water alone. Screw what the medical theory is. I declined a ride to the hospital telling the officer first thing to go chase some text-message accident, I'm not even scratched. It's not the firs time I waved off fist aid, splitting lanes; That's another story. Like I said, I could count the crashes on my toes and know how much body damage I can handle. I gimp to the shower and rubbed all that cement and grit off the wounds, went out to the garage to film it before they took it away.

I think I snipped the fuel cutter lines off, took that and the toggle switch to make the first point of entry to the bike's code system. Got a little worried I lost the one hand's ability to climb back on a bike, once I could walk around and do things again. That was when I found out I could not do too much with the one arm. The first bike only had 2K miles on it. Every time out with it, I had some mod I was playing with, figuring out the bike in the generic.

Yeah, I was tettering on the edge of walking away from the bike, as easy as I did with the 7 year stretch. It's kind of like a war battle as we part from each other and are at peace with the bike. Butt I do seem to get excited riding that passion. Maybe you can hear it in my voice the rush of power on tap. And when I say power, it is the HP that propells one. Like jet wash, you want to take that stick and recover for more.

Crashing is part of the sport they say. I say the arm came back and so did the second 14. I just started where I left off. WOT is there to do besides eat/sleep/shit your life away is in between you can take a ride once and awhile to enjoy life for WATTit is before the; Lights go OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT OUT...

OH, those Out, Out Out Out Ouch Charlie!

I agree with another poster here-return yer rear brake asap..okay?

WON'T HELP, blue - When I don't use one.
2 miles short of 12,000 miles are the OEM still with a gauge marker showing plenty left.

Great story Hub, thanks for sharing. Sorry boys, maybe I'm Daft, what's wrong in the pics,how do they relate?

Thanks, Romes. I think the pictures relate to the black bike having no rear brake assembly and now the silver bike has the rear brake left on, but the right foot ain't having any part of it. So, WOT is the point I use any throttle opening. Homey don't need said brake.

But check this out. This is what I call a, 'window disc' or who knows who came up with it, this is about all you need for the rear to work.
