Whats the slowest you've ever gone on your SV!?!

Yep that's how I do stopsigns.thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??
I do that a lot when stuck in rush hour traffic. Since I have no tunes, gotta do something to amuse myself while waiting for Marge to realise the tunnel will not collapse if she drives through it :evil: Amazing how light the SV feels when doing stupid chit like that, almost like being back on my dirt bike as a teenager.thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??
does it annoy anyone else when you see noob riders put their feet down like 20 feet before they come to a stoplight and then leave their feet down for half a block after they take off again.. i mean jeez, get a sense of balance!thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??
only when their on $12k liter bikes.wonderjosh said:does it annoy anyone else when you see noob riders put their feet down like 20 feet before they come to a stoplight and then leave their feet down for half a block after they take off again.. i mean jeez, get a sense of balance!thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??
I do that on occasion cause I'm lazy, too much work to bring my feet up, lol!wonderjosh said:does it annoy anyone else when you see noob riders put their feet down like 20 feet before they come to a stoplight and then leave their feet down for half a block after they take off again.. i mean jeez, get a sense of balance!thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??
my feet dont come off the pegs until the wheels stop rolling and they go right back on the pegs as soon as i let the clutch out to drive off again. :roll:
i hear that, on my dirt bike it's feet on pegs then clutch outwonderjosh said:does it annoy anyone else when you see noob riders put their feet down like 20 feet before they come to a stoplight and then leave their feet down for half a block after they take off again.. i mean jeez, get a sense of balance!thejimdaddy said:i can stop without putting my feet down for a few seconds, do i win??

i'll leave my feet off while driving around, almost dragging them (yes, i'm aware of the possibility of clipping a bump in the road). but when there's a stop sign on every corner, it's just easier to keep the feet down.wonderjosh said:does it annoy anyone else when you see noob riders put their feet down like 20 feet before they come to a stoplight and then leave their feet down for half a block after they take off again.. i mean jeez, get a sense of balance!

One of the things I love about the SV is that it does go slow so well. I can lug it down to 1K in first and it just keeps chuggin'. On my previous I4 it was clutch-brake-slip-rev which really wears on you after a few minutes in rush hour traffic.

I'm sure you're correct; if anyone should know it'd be you. I don't make a habit of it though.RandyO said:"I don't believe that is good for the engine, cause it ain't pumpin enuf oil..."nc_sv650 said:"...I can lug it down to 1K in first and it just keeps chuggin'..."
