all the way to the stop preferably

i've tried a few little ones off the clutch, but since the winter came in i haven't tried, went for it the other day and forgot how much of a kick it feels like

woohoo

Jimmy fireblade looks good but he's so far away, where are the other three instructors?

The technique is to wait till the engine is around maximum torque (6k-ish) and then snap (and I do mean snap) the throttle wide open. However be aware that the front'll come up like a rearing horse and needs to be eased off quickly but smoothly. As posted previously, be prepared to pick up the pieces
