my freind had one of those and his real tire wasnt that great and he told me he was on interstate and rolled on it hard and he thought the clutch was slipping, wound up being he was spinning the rear tire. Dont know if its true but thats what he said. He said that bike scared the crap out of him. He was new to bikes though.

Not hard to believe if the rear tire was worn and hard compound rubber, and with a smaller statured person it would have been a pretty scary ride especially for a novice rider...I can still remember the 1st time I rode a Honda 750-4 KO Model way back in 72 and I thought that was the fastest thing I could have ever imagined of
