Ouch, haha.

Fuc* gear, you don't even need a helmet! Now try some high speed wheelies.

You guys are lucky, I'm still stuck in the "I can't turn faster than 15mph" crew.

Now for more practice on the corners.......leaning over a 350 lb machine as its going over 30 mph just isn't natural to me yet. : (
the faster you go, the more stable the lean is... (gyroscopic effect) leaning a bike going 30 mph is pretty hard, but the only way to scrape bodywork and frame slider (without crashing)

Can a post be deleted for being dangerously misinformed?

I hate to say it but, i'm a squid. man like 2-3 weeks ago i was on s.r. 54 headed west towards NPR (New Port Richey) in the section that was 2 lanes for so long, at like 1 am and there was nobody on the road. i pretty much always try to ride as safe and smart as possible but for whatever reason i wasnt looking through the turn and bam i hit a fuckin capped off water pipe sticking up out of the pavement like 2 and a half inches in the god damn middle of the lane! now that doesnt sound like a big deal but when your zoning out that shit will catch you way of guard. everything was ok but i felt so stupid for hitting that shit, what if that was like a log or turtle or somethin? man i learned a lesson, dont ride when your tired if its avoidable. sounds like a no brainer i know, but i guess i had to learn the hard way im just lucky it wasnt worse. that was the last time i rode too cause i broke my foot (not motorcycle related) so im gunna be a squid for at least another 2 to 3 weeks
