Hey im' in leathers on this BMW! And I wave at people! Also whoever designed the turn signal system for BMWs is an idiot. One button for left or right on each handle bar, and some stupid button you have to push UPWARDS to cancel the signal. must search for roundels/stickers, I was actually already looking around ebay.... didn't know they were called that though.

I've never prayed a motorcycle has been stolen before, till now. To think of the money they could have made parting that thing out on CL instead of throwing it off a building. Almost certainly more than they made filming it. vvvv God, I hope so. If it was a Honda though it would have flown back to its rightful owner, I'm sure.

They've got other equally idiotic videos, including one of them almost running over people in the street and later beating a bike with a bat before dragging it behind a pickup.

I don't get how douchebags like this get chicks to go naked through car washes or get naked and see how far they can squirt their piss in a parking lot. I just, yeah, I don't get it. Ah well. This might be a repost but... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9aVNAnlzsp0 Water crossing can be a bitch. edit: Uneducated in the dual sport world but did he target fixate to the deep end then end up riding off into it basically? Looks like he keeps looking at the water and going "OH gently caress DON'T GO IN THAT" then keeps going towards that then "gently caress DON'T GO IN THE....FUUUUCCCKKK" edit2: I also laughed at the vid meaning my first deeper crazy kinda water crossing like this I'm going to do the exact same loving thing.

I don't have enough power to 12 o'clock my bike, but have certainly been surprised by the power of the regrip before. I suppose your keen vision is based on some moments where you wished you could have ungripped your regrip.

I suppose your keen vision is based on some moments where you wished you could have ungripped your regrip. It all started with MSF, actually. Keeping your wrist level isn't just good practice in the parking lots, it's key when you want to get your bike off the line consistently. There's a couple of warning behaviors right before people loop their bikes, that's a big one, along with the revs rising and falling rather than being held steady. Having a steady launch RPM is key towards getting the most out of your bike off the line. Of course, I'm no drag racer, I just had a system that worked well for starts in roadracing and stoplight GP. If I had some additional money to replace a burned up clutch, I'd go and figure out exactly what it'd take to drop my times at a drag strip on the GSX-R. No running it at low pressures to hook up or anything, just hot tires, a roadracing setup, and technique adjustment.

I think you've introduced another uh-oh in CA lore. Doing the regrip implies you are not used to using full throttle. People that race dragster bikes every weekend don't regrip, they know where their wrist is supposed to be. A regrip is like saying "ok then, let's see what she does wide open" and the next sentence is usually "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA".

Really? Looked terribly boring to me, all they did was ride a bunch of fireroads. Tearing up a tight piece of single track is way more fun than screwing around on some roads. Even better is a really technical piece of single track that takes everything you got. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LQNGLqnuhrM

What's exciting on video isn't what's most exciting to ride  Honestly, while technical singletrack is fun, I'll always love the stupid giggles of just sliding it everywhere over a fireroad. Might not be the most technically astounding thing to do but goddamn is it fun. Z3n fucked around with this message at 03:56 on Feb 12, 2011 |
