"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

from the sound I'd say it ran away. :o

sound like they let off the throttle and it revved up with lots of pinging then kaboom.

Wow. That video clip was a metaphor for my day. Humming along quite nicely, then some indication of a problem.....then BAMMM.....all hell breaks out.

Yours too?  Christ what a day.  Two clients decide to act like children and one sub-contractor continuing to act like a child. 
996 forks, BoomTubes, frame sliders, CRG bar-end mirrors, vizitech integrated tail light, rizoma front turn signals, rizoma grips, cycle cat multistrada clip ons, pantah belt covers - more to come

The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken

I wish I could participate in this but PCNA would have a heart attack.  At one point in time we may have helped a select customer or two by getting them a new engine instead of having to rebuild a bad one.  But you didn't hear it from me. We also haven't done this in years.

i believe that's the 396 that was in the dodge charger, not the 6.5L diesel.  albeit turbo charged..

Yep. 440 6 pack would have been the top optional motor
