see, i'll be cruising along, and it dies... no throttle, just fwawp fwawp fwawp when i try to accelerate. then its like someone flicked the ON switch and BLAMMMMMMMO ! it fires a nice loud round out the V&H pipe.

the 12-18" flame shooting out the pipe is hilarious

i have nothing to do with it. nothing.

I would love to see a video of that, man! The first few times I was riding mine after getting it running, I decided to take off down the interstate and wind it up a little. Some guy came by me on an R6 or GSXR and pulled the clutch and gave it a goose! Scared the bejeebus out of me! Funny too, that dude was gone fast too!

For the confused:  hit the kill switch while you are moving and then turn it back on a few seconds later and you can make the bike back fire.  Works on carbureted bikes.

Be nice to dogs. Some 300lb creep with ape hangers and shark teeth painted on his tank pulled up to a red light, looked straight at my dog, then revved his engine as loud as he could as he pulled away just to be an ass. My dog was shaking for blocks.

Unfortunately for him I see his bike parked in front of his house every day on my way home from work, he doesn't live too far away from me. One of these nights his bike is getting knocked over. Keep that in mind, unless you never park your bike in public....

works best if you are hard decelerating i.e. on highway etc
(or just in low gear carrying a lot of momentum)


but would this damage anything? valves, carbs?

Then push it over. :flipoff:

Knocked over?

What's wrong with a pair of side cutters snipping off the tire valve?

That seems like more of a process than I want to get into right in front of his house. I know tires are only 30-35 psi but the "Psssshhhhhhhhhh..." of the first tire would attract attention before I even got to the second. I could just cut the clutch cable. He'd go out in the morning, start his bike, try to pull the clutch in to put it in first, and get nothing.


He'd never know if I let me dog pee on it, but I could always leave a present for him right on his seat.

It got nothing on my savage chopper. It backfires and spits and snorts when ever I shut the throttle, even a wee bit ... its not even funny ... people duck when they hear it.
Cool.

Don't knock it over.   Just take the valve stems out of his tire valves.

this sounded interesting so I tried it today.

I was in 5th doing about 50mph, flipped kill switch off then back on a few seconds later but no backfire.

Is there something more to it?

Give it a couple of revs before you turn it on. But don't blame me for bent valves or snapped timing chain. It actually works better for commercial vans and buses. On a bucks night many years ago we had every cop from 4 districts searching for us because they thought the CBD was under seige from a bus load of gun nuts :D :thumb: :cheers:
