Well, when we got the beast running for the first time, there was no
air filter, no boot connecting the carb to the airbox, no bolt for the
head cover, and both radiators had no bolts and were flopping in the
wind. The front tire was flat, and I think I was in 3rd gear. It did
not have much of a clutch then. The thing would shoot oil out of the
missing bolt hole, and it was exactly placed somehow so that the oil
would shoot out, hit the radiator fan, and the fan would form it into
a sort of projectile and shoot it right at my right eye. So i had to
drive with one eye open, and when I went down the block, turned around
and came back, my face was covered in oil. But it pulled wheelies on
its own really, all I did was lift up a little. This being my first
four stroke, the only bike I've had thats had good power was a 250cc
