probably why i wasn't impressed. not only am i NOT jeff ward, but tossing someone else's race bike on a screw-around afternoon wouldn't win me friends. i'm sure i was too tentative and conservative. despite the fact that the thing was scary-fast, i wasn't slamming brakes and pitching it sideways enough. not my bike, not set up for me, plus not my bike, not my bike and not my bike (the mantra mumbled while riding the beast).
maybe jeff williams will get a slipper cluch on his/our husky supermoto. i have no quams about mashing brakes and tossing that thing to the fork lock....
