Cuz goo doesn't work as an organ replacement?
Friends send emails about Bikers Behaving Badly to their friends.
In that spirit, may I suggest viewing Why Allah Gave Then Camels and don’t miss Evil Knegro.
There are other classics such as the one with a middle aged male getting onto his new Hawg and accelerating right into the left rear quarter of a full sized auto.
Google the one about the Russian motorcyclist in rush hour. One viewing and you know why it is called ‘rush’ hour.
Stay safe, Y’All.
GSXR is not a squid bike.
A Honda 350cc with a plexifairing and dual rear springs with a rider wearing plaid, thats a squid bike!
Sorry. I'll be sure to check in with you before I post again.
Want to do wheelies?
Get a unicycle.

It isn’t getting on the back wheel that is difficult, it is coming down. If you come off a wheelie at speed and the front wheel isn’t exactly straight ahead, that’s when a MC can get squirrely.
ROTFLMAO! A dummy on a motorcycle doing idiot motorcycle things sure does back up that claim about morons in cars.
So sure. Morons in cars do make motorcycles more dangerous. That, and motorcyle riders passing long lines of traffic on a shoulder, weaving in and out of traffic, not using signals, riding bikes so loud they couldn’t hear a fire engine behind them and so on.
You, sir, are the master of understatement!
Now it's time to jump on the R1200R and brave the 405. No wheelies though...
Was taking mom home from one of her weekend visits with us when we lived in VA. We were stuck in traffic at the foot of a bridge where the road narrows into one lane.It was a nice spring day and the windows were down.We were just talking and suddenly,through the passenger side window,we hear what sounds like an angry swarm of bees.I looked over just in time to see this chickie gunning her rocket past us-LANESPLITTING through stopped traffic,wearing sandals,short-shorts and a little spaghetti-strap tank top.Surprisingly enough,she had on a helmet.If my mom had stuck her arm out the window at the wrong moment,it would’ve been cut off.How she maneuvered through the traffic and gone across the bridge without killing someone or herself is a mystery to me,but when we finally got across the other side,about a quarter mile beyond the bridge,the bridge cops had her pulled over...I cheered loudly and mom laughed.Unreal.
I’ve seen that a few times around here myself, but usually a crowd of bikes and at leat someone takeing video to post on the web.
Pretty impressive to see though...
Florida:
It’s not the heat, it’s the stupidity.
Then did you scrape the residue off the pavement?
That’s why I don’t do wheelies, I could never leave that good looking a corpse.
Its sad when a young man does somthing stupid and dies. Its worse when the trolls come out of the woodwork to mock the death of said young man. Its horrific when there is no tought of who that individual may have left behind and all people can think of is if he was an organ donor or if the bike was a “crotchrocket, rice burner, etc. etc.”
Sheesh.
This is right down the road from me...
I was driving down I-24 last year between Smyrna and Nashville and saw a group of black guys on cafe bikes and some folks in a Tahoe filming some guys doing tricks on the interstate in traffic between semis and whatnot..like wheelies at 100 mph plus
amazing but very risky
as a former H2 (anyone even know what that is), a GS1100RS, GPZ triple bored over, and gassed Ninja...I know sport bikes and have the subsequent surgeries as proof
my question though is when did black guys start riding flashy cafe bikes?
this reminds me of a heads up to King Kenny!
that Indy Mile on a 34 year old TZ750 at 60 years old in 2009 and at more than competitive qualifying speed is one of sport’s most amazing feats ever

there will never been another
RIP for the poor kid....that’s why they call them risks...coulda been me many times
