Been away along time, but that might have been me. Was it a Green Classic ?

Was a while ago but I think it was green, yes. Turning out of the road where they have just put all the non-skid surfaces etc so you won't be doing it again! Did look good though.

The old 'diesel on the road' ploy eh :-) I've found that sometimes it's hard to get the boost up enough to really break traction and it just grips and others it just goes mad and into tankslapper mode as you say. Get it right though and it feels great - salted roads in the winter seem best.
