well i almost died today.lol. has anyone tried to jump a spree off a speed bump? a new house is being built on my street and they layed new pipe. only they didnt lay it deep enough and filled it in so now there is a 1/2 foot speed bump in the middle of the street. so anyway i took the spree down the road and even though i knew it was there i didnt know how much it would act like a jump. turned out its a * of a jump at 30mph with a bike that weighs 60lbs.it sucked. it didnt seem like the bike even lifted. but i sure as * did. anyone else have a similar experiance?

I was at the post office in my town and i saw the dirt bank on the side so i decided to jump it so i went up it and man did i fly and the cool part about it was that i was only doing ten mph and when i came down i destroyed my tial light and that is the one thing i hate about sprees i cant even do a wheelie without going back and busting my tail light does anyone have a sugestion besides stating the obviuse of NOT DOING WHEELIES!!!!!

BWA HA HA! Jumping' Spree!

The Spree doesn't have the suspension travel or springs to handle jumps. But that's hilarious anyway. I want a video.

I'll have you a video by Monday.

Me and my friend Shane used to jump my Spree all the time. I guess one more time isn't going to hurt. My ramp is about 2 1/2 foot tall. We built it for jumping Bicycles and Dirt Bikes.
