    never again

    when i bought my gs and got it running i was excited to ride it but it wasnt on the road and didnt have a clutch handle i would always take it around the block one day my friend wanted to try it he had never been on anything with two wheels except a pedal bike....so i set up the bike facing off the drive way i told him to just give it a little gas and kick the kick starter as your sitting down...mind you the bike was already hot and would fire in a second ....what i didnt notice was how he was holding the throttle as if it would turn around the handle 2 times...anyways when it fired the supprising kick back to him must have been somthing new and he got pulled back the bike was wide open(anyone ever see the movie peewee's big adventure) anyways he started going full throttle off my drivway up the neighbors lawn across the street and he looked like a toy on the thing ...no word of a lie he must have came within about 5 meters from that brick wall before he could finally somhow use the power to swing it around...the bike fell on the ground and it was laying sidways opn there lawn sCREAMMING it must have been at like 60000000000 rpm or somthin man 8O the back wheel was like a meter away from the wall i was like 8O and he picked it up and idled it back towards me like 8O and i was like 8O and he was like 8O then i put the bike in the garage closed it and hoped the poes would'nt drive by

      The old ," Wide open throttle and no clutch lever." trick.
      As I read the post I was wondering if the guy was going to go through the neighbors front door. 8O Now that would have been an even more interesting event to say the least.

        when you get the clutch lever fixed, disconnect the brakes and let him try again

                That's got to be the stupidest thing I've ever heard of.

                You could have at least videotaped it.

                    offer your "buddy" a revolver with a full cylinder.
                    tell him the game is russian roulette.
                    he tries first
                    hey it sounds like you are trying to get rid of him.
