OK, I finally got the flames a shooting! I'm only able to get flames about a bit longer than a foot long, and only short bursts of flames when the bike is stationary. Since it's a v-twin and has one exhaust pipe per cylinder there's only exhaust gases coming out of each pipe at certain times. Sucks because I can't keep the flames going when I'm sitting at a light or whatever. When hittin it down the road, though, I can pull the choke out, decel, and hit the button and get continuous flames. I can get some flames probably 2 feet long or so if I also hit the kill switch and blip the throttle a hair. It's almost impossible to catch the short bursts of flame with a camera, especially since the flame comes out of the pipes at different times, but I got a real short movie of me shooting flames in my driveway. I need to get somebody to shoot a short vid of me going down the road shooting flames. Sorry for the poor video quality, but it's the only digital camera I could get ahold of that will also do short movies. Here's the link:
