This is the shaZam! that keeps me up all night!

1) You can high-side and low-side, what's it called when you just plain fall off or have an accident that doesn't fall into these two categories?

2) Who the HELL came up with the word PETCOCK in the first place. I absolutley cannot say this word in pleasant company - I giggle like a little girl!

3) How do you know if you've gotten all the salt off your bike after you take it out mid-winter?

4) What do you do with your old tires?

5) What is your favorite part of your GS?

1) An off. A Crash. An accident. Pain.

2) "Petcock" is actually a relatively new word, first appearing in the mid-19th century, but several aspects of its derivation are somewhat mysterious. The "pet" part seems to be rooted in an old sense of "pet" meaning "small," possibly related to our modern "petty," in turn harking back to the French "petit" (small), which all makes sense since a "petcock" is, as we noted, a small faucet. The "chicken" part is more problematic. My own sense is that it is probably rooted in the verb "to chicken," meaning "to turn up" (as in "cocking one's hat") or "to block," drawn from the defiant behavior of roosters. Whatever the logic of the term, "chicken" has been used to mean "spout or faucet" since the 15th century, and is also found in the word "stopcock," which also means a small adjustable faucet. - www.word-detective.com/032602.html+PETCOCK+origins&hl=en

3) Lick it? Dunk it in a pool. Have so much mud and dust and grime that the salt wont stick.

4) I kept mine so I could use them If I had to. Or I'm sure the people who switch them for you could dispose of them.

5) My favorite part is the 'it works part'. Actually the new tires I just bought. Thats it.

I love that response NightRyder.

Bravo! 

My favorite part of my GS is the gas tank and frame.  This area of the bike is the part of the bike that makes it look most like a sport bike.

MORE!!!

6) What do you do when you have an itch or a runny nose with your helmet on?

7) What do you do when you SNEEZE with your helmet on! : )

8 ) What do you do when your best friend is constantly bumping your rear tire when stopped at stop lights?

9) Is anyone else worried about getting a spider in the boots/gloves after a winter season?

1) Off, accident, drop.
2) I've heard it called "Fuel chicken" as well...  (Love the Word Detective BTW).  You can call it a Fuel Shutoff if it makes you happy.
3) You wait a few years and check for rust.
4) Make sandles out of them...  For more information read "Steal this Book" by Abby Hoffman.
5) The part where it goes fast and still gets 50 MPG.
6) Stop at a stop-light and stick my gloved hand under the chin guard...  Usually works.
7) Alphafire can answer that one for you.   
8 ) You drop your side-stand, get off your bike, and push them over...  Then you say, "You gonna keep bumping my tire?"
9) Any spider stupid enough to crawl into my boot won't last long...  But, I once had a spider in my jeans......  Luckily I was a passenger in a car when it happened, 'cause I friggen lost it.  I felt a little tickle...  Then I realized it was moving around.  I started hitting my leg and freaking out like my hair was on fire.  Not really sure why, I'm not afraid of spiders...  I guess I just don't like things crawling around under my pants.

2) It should properly be called a fuel selector.  The one under the tank is the petcock.

3) When the bike is dry and you can't see anymore salt residue.

4) Mine disappear.  Usually at the shop that I take my wheels to to have new tires put on.

5) The handling.

Buy a bike with some real bark.  In my case I picked up a TL1000S, added full race Yosh Ti system, and revved away at will.  Alternately, wait until a secluded straightaway, pull along side your buddy, and hit their kill switch.  Instant hilarity.

6) You go, 'agggggg' and wrinkle your face alot.

7) Usually I go, 'oh no.. no no no no.. AHHH CHOooo.. damn it. ewww. mental note: clean this.' I forget though.

8 ) I wish I had someone who bumped my tire.. *boo hoo* wait. That's not an answer. Here: .. actually I have no idea what I woud do in that situation.. probably just live with it. If they kept it up they might get hit or left behind.

9) I worry alot about spiders. Well, only when I haven't worn something for a long time. The vacuum comes out and the hose sucks them right up.. I still stick my foot in real quick and smash it all around just to make sure anyone left get smashed.

1) If you're just sitting there and go down, no high-side or low-side, you fell, or had an off, or toppled, or the bike got a bit wonky.
2) What NightRyder said.
3) What's winter?
4) I gave my old tires to the people who changed them so they could dispose of them. Looking back on it I should have kept them, just in case.
5) Favorite parts on the GS are the new SM2 bars and my F to E stripping.
6) Itch or runny nose: open the visor, itch/wipe, put visor back down, continue. Repeat if necessary.
7) Sneezing while wearing a helmet: I crash, apparently.
Do a smokin' burn out so he can't see you and then ride away into the smoke, then pull over and wait for him to pass you, then sneak up behind him and bump his tire at stops. (Not me, but I'm sure it could be done.)
9) What's winter?

Petcock = Petrol chicken   chicken meaning Valve like Draincock on a radiator  atleast thats what i always thought

Here is one I was contemplaring.

How come no one mentions oversteer and understeer on motor bikes like on cars or quads?

The answer came to me in the other day while riding in the pouring rain. Being slightly tail out because some jackhole  passes me only to slam on her brakes to make a right turn can really clear you head. 

For us mere mortals

understeer= highside
oversteer = lowside
