I must admit, I was really impressed at how well the bike sounds too.  It reminds of a '69 Camaro tearing the tires off.  And yes, I was having a blast!  It was kind of funny, my neighbor came with me to film (we were about 6 blocks from home) and as we left were coming up the stop light down the street and out of no where an unmarked cop pulls up next to me.  He was just glaring at me, probably because he didn't catch me in the act.  Ha Ha!  Missed me!   LOL    Anyways, this was just a fun treat for myself and all of you.  I don't plan on doing anymore burnouts unless I'm in the dirt.  Which will hopefully be my next video, rolling the Blackhawk around the pro motocross track down the road from me.  I have a friend with a go pro who's going to follow behind me.    :)  I'm telling you guys, I have high octane fuel running thru my veins.    ;)

That is one hell of a bike you got there
Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handlebars to the saddle

Scottie, you and that bike are both insane.  In a good way, of course!

I have a work buddy who is an old car guy (and a harley guy, but we don't hold that against him); I played that video for him, but made his keep his eyes closed and guess what he was hearing.  He 'bout $hit the bed when he saw your 50's 2-cylinder bike instead of some big 'ol muscle car...  ;D

Thanks for all the compliments guys!

damn sweet bike. like the tyres. sounds awesome, healthy.

The tires I'm running are the Shinko 705's.  Extremely impressed with them so far.

Mattz - Thanks for the compliment.   ;)   That's freaking awesome about your friend at work!  My bike just sounds so mean.  I Love it!

(Edit)
And I have a confession to make, I'm kind of a burnout connoisseur.  Damn near every vehicle I've owned in the last 18 years or so I've done a nice healthy burnout right before a tire change.  It all started when with my old '75 Firebird Formula 350.  And then my '82 Camaro.  And then...  LOL  Ok so like EVERYTHING I've owned.  And honestly, a lot of my cars were 4 cylinders.  Where there's a will, there's a way.  I can do a burnout on damn near anything, it must be the Redneck in me.  LOL    :D

The bike is running great!  Other than 3rd gear not wanting to go unless I'm on it, it seems like I have everything dialed in right where it needs to be.  I think the next major mod will be to install a dual carb set up.  Happen to know where I cab score the intakes?
