on a side note, hows the brain bucket on a sport bike? i always thought it looked wierd having a half helmet on a sport bike, but thats probably cause sport bikes tend to cause problems  :icon_twisted:

Oh boy I hate being put into that stereo type... People at my work assume I ride 90+ MPH because I have a sport bike..Then when they hear well I get close to 70 mpg so ridng 65 on the highway is like an eye opener to them.

I also wear HD leather gloves on the bike... My gf laughs at that but hey it works!

ahhhhh stereotypes... i know a guy on a hd something or other that scrapes more metal off swerving around cones that most frames consist of ;-)


some scooter dudes that pass and LEAVE sportbikers in the twisties ;-)

and some dualsport crazies that make 2 stroke carmicheal wannabies cry in the woods ;-)




but i'm just a weirdo in full leathers, with a dualsport helmet, mining gloves, and motox boots.... on a scooter
don't mind me ;-)

Waving?? Is that what people are always doing when I pass another bike? And all this time I thought people on bikes just used hand signals more!!   :icon_twisted:
Follow the path of least acceptance!

Oh my! I can't tell if this is sarcasm.

If you are serious, welcome to 'The Wave'.  You may now utilize your left hand for a friendly wave exclusively toward other riders.

the first grind on a scooter is "OH shaZam!!" and the heart races, anticipating a wheel lift or incredibly embarrassing high side.... on a lol scooter.

then every turn after that, is just trying to do it again ;-)
