I think the point is Z3n is a space cowboy on the edge of a frontier unknown to man, he's out there pushing the limits, trail braking into the abyss. Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

Although I think in some ways that having to install your teeth before fighting may be more badass than the Dom Leather dude with a Falcon.

Those big choppers really do seem like the bike equivalent of old dudes driving convertible coupe penis shaped bmws. That said, I have probably watched around 100 episodes of American chopper over the years. Mostly just for the drama though.

From about 20seconds onwards is exactly what happened to me. Except it was my dad's R1 and it was the first time I've been on a motorcycle. I also decided to hedge my bets and wear a leather jacket and full face helmet and gloves.

It looks like he simply locks the front and it washes out. So for him and all his buddies, the myth about the dangerous front brake is confirmed.

For us, the myth about retarded posers who have no idea how to ride a motorcycle is confirmed.

He basically hammered the front brake, or didn't use rear brake enough right?

Also didn't give himself enough room to slow down obviously, but I think he could have done that better if he wasn't so bad at braking.

As soon as I saw him take almost the entire street to do a u-turn, I knew it was going to be good.

Using more rear brake is not going to do diddley for you if you tuck the front in a straight line. He crashed because he doesn't know how to ride a motorcycle.

He held the wheelie for 32 seconds on the previous try I'm guessing. Or it was 32 seconds away from 12 o clock :laugh:

He jabbed the front brake yeah. Maybe his tires aren't that good, maybe some other factors were bad but his main problem was accelerating that quick towards a red light. Harleys might be dogs but they still accelerate quick enough to get you into trouble, particularly if you taught yourself riding by watching Camel ads.

The thing is, it seems like the shooter is using the driver's head as a platform, which is probably the best part because the dude's face looks kinda squished from the helmet being pushed down.

I can just imagine the fancy riding they can do.
