Nice. Not as nice as this one was though:

I hope you bought that chick on the right a burger or two as a tip

Hell no, I rode off into the sunset with the one in the green bikini

Your bike made it into the fb page.

 

[SauRoNZA]

lol - how?

Physics.

Use torque drop clutch.

 

[SauRoNZA]

^^Yoh!!

Apparently there's a bike show at Grand West this weekend (for thems Cape Town riders)...

Car show but there will be bikes too.

No clutch

 

[SauRoNZA]

No clutch

Oh right I forgot that detail.

It should still power wheelie though.

Nope

 

[SauRoNZA]

Nope

Orly?

I'm guessing the 20 percent power deficit up here has something to do with it. It doesn't even get light on the front wheel at full throttle in first

He has a clutch. Read the comments

 

[SauRoNZA]

There is no clutch.

What in the comments makes you think that?

You can clearly see there is no clutch and it's a power wheelie.

As retarded as it is to upload a video sideways on YouTube.

Actually I just spotted a clutch.

But plenty of videos of the Africa Twin doing wheelies with DCT so it should work.

If a little Jog 90 can wheelie an NC should have no problem.

 

[Sinbad]

The Africa twin is an 1100 or something isn't it?

 

[SauRoNZA]

998cc but also very low on power and heavier.

Thing is you said an NC can't wheelie. But it can.

Then you said it can't wheelie becuase it doesn't have a clutch due to DCT.

Then I proved it's not a gearbox limitation as the Africa Twin can.

So in conclusion an NC 750 DCT can wheelie just like a little Jog 90 can.

YOU just can't wheelie one.

And there is no shame in that. I'm also useless at planned wheelies.

 

[Sinbad]

No man you need the clutch to get the wheel up with the low powered 700. There's not enough go to do it without.

I took on a DCT african twin today, and let me tell you, there is a moer of a difference between the NC and the African twic in terms of power and torque

Sure...but an NC can still wheelie.

 

[faniebraai]

Sure, but not Sinbad's DCT

 

[SauRoNZA]

Yeah the Africa Twin could also just be that fast cause you don't know how to operate a clutch.
