Yeah, I'm not good at judging internet humour unfortunately... sorry :P

I will generally always go with "There is no accounting for human stupidity" and just assume the worse case scenario :P

"And here i present.......the DIY Sander Carb Cleaner"  :pokefun ;) ;) ;)

If you were in 1st at 10,000 revs then its no wonder you crashed.
I wouldnt fancy doing a test for you to see as I hate to think of the SMASH from 1st to 2nd gear as at normal revs its a clunck
I can say from unwanted one time experience those kind of revs puts out an outrageously loud bang  :rolleyes :o [size=78%] [/size]

Why on earth wouldn't you be able to hit 10k revs in first? The red line isn't until 12,500!

They do it quite comfortably, and beyond!

Think I might have been misunderstood - my bike does indeed quite happily do 10k rpm, and beyond... What it doesn’t do, is make a huge clunk, or outrageously loud bang, when I shift from 1st to 2nd.

Any rider error involved, is not on my part....

That clutchy lever thingy seems to stop all that clunking on my bike  :lol
