Very Very nice effort Jonas cant believe you had it up like that especially there. I am sure I know where you were and I would say at the top of the mountain back of Patong leading up to the army/weather station. Know the area very well and it is very steep there. Your a mad man!

I wish i had my camera with me when Jonas did a wheelie outside C&N with Jonny behind him last summer.....
Think Jonny did a "Dawsey"...

Hi Djaust,

Yes, you are correct. It is on the way to the army station and it is very steep, but it doesnt look steep on the photo thought.

When we went back to Patong we took the Kata/Karon road back and visited Hobby.

We first went the forest road from Patong to Wat Chalong over the hills but since it started to rain we wouldnt take the same road back as it can get very dirty/slippery when raining.

Great Performance Jonas !!!

LivinLOS · #6 18-01-2006, 20:58

Nice performance.. Looks like you got it to the balance point...

Wheelie uphill is usually a lot easier as it needs less lift to get it there.. Coming out of my place is a bit steep and I can usually get the underpowered Cheer up but the lack of clutch on these makes em a bit unpredicatble (if you use the step through clutch for bounce and rev)..

Some reason I simply cannot get the CBR to bounce or even clutch up.. Wrecked my last chain by trying over and over one afternoon.. Really thought that bike should clutch up easy..

Nice wheelie! Those scooter's arent really powerhouses so that got to take a lot of skill!

Hey Jonas nice to meet up with you this trip. Your a great guy to share a beer with. Man can you drive a go cart. Heres a pic of me and my baby. Not on a hill though.

cheers,
DD

Well I've seen you in the go cart and now on the bike and it seems like you apply the same "take no prisoners" approach to both forms of drivin' Jonas

I will be sure to check with you next time we are both on Tour at the same time to make sure you won't be driving a car whist I am around.............bad enough with the locals let alone with Jonas at the wheel!!!

Great to meet up with you Jonas...........it was a fun afternoon at the carts..............only you must have had a faster cart than me on the day (like twice as fast!!!)............anyone got any pics of that day?????????
