I disapprove of such a fatalistic outlook.

On a bike, at every moment of every ride, you're the one in control.

Your imperfection does not condemn you in those moments; it merely places upon you a burden of care.

Pride may come before a fall, but considering the fall inevitable is almost in itself a form of pride.

Now, now...get off (gently) you shortarse pony... :p

I was not being fatalistic, just realistic...I am not thinking of it as inevitable, but as a very likely outcome...the odds are that wether we like it or not, we all will at one stage or another in our lives as riders, irrespectively of our own individual skills, will be involved in an accident...

The question is: is your outlook preparing you for it better than mine is preparing me?

I like the defensive riding approach: always be prepared for the worse.

So you think that riding whilst having the skills developed stunt riding makes you a more dangerous rider? I can't see your logic. How can having a variety of developed bike handling skills do anything other than make you a better rider?

Being the other half of someone who does track days and is getting more intop stunting, I think that I will feel even safer on the back of him as a result of the stunting than I already do.

It's practising your circus tricks while riding that puts you at greater risk.




I can't see your logic. How can having a variety of developed bike handling skills do anything other than make you a better rider?

I can see it giving many overconfidence as they truly believe that the "skills" they have acquired actually have any relevance to safe road riding skills.

Try reading the dedications to some of the KB members that have killed themselves on their bikes and never made it into their thirties...

"There's some great footage of Bruce and his big cheeky grin as he races, does burnouts on the grass, wheelies etc. Then he hops on his roadbike and does some unrefined wheelies and stoppies on the road. He's about 18 in the video, but he hasn't changed in the years since (except for pulling better wheelies and stoppies!)"

"Not only did Daryl like showing off on his bike but off as well."

"We were taking a shorter route heading thru backroads he get onto a straight and Dan put it up on one wheel and man.....that still remains to this day the best ever wheelie i had seen.... perfectly balanced and i mean perfectly...went along for a good 500 metre with the numberplate about 2 inches off the ground...no more no less for the whole frikking wheelie....same angle the whole way.... plate 2 inches off the ground perfectly consistent for 500 metres , the rest of us couldnt believe it...talk to him after...oh yeah...was nothing much...."

I am sure that there are a great deal of people riding bikes with an overinflated belief in thier skills who have never even done stunting or developed any advanced riding 'skills'.

And how may riders have died young who weren't 'showing off'? You can't blame what they did for how they died unless it was as a direct result of it. Sometimes unfortunate accidents just happen.

There is no way in hell I would ever do that and especially not without full gear. And I can say without any doubt that my bloke would never ask me to do it either.

hey dipshit,
sorry, but i don't get the connection between stunting and boy racers?

slow wheelies, stoppies ect in a environment that is chosen as far out of the way as possible...... usually on dead end roads, trying to improve skills and have some fun.

vs

boy racers that race each other on open highways topping out at 200+kmph,
drifting around corners on residential streets ect ect.......

are you implying that they are the same risk to themselves and the general public?

i personally think your arguments on safety should go over to the sportbike forum where people are talking about "what is the fastest you have managed to get your bike" and "i got over 180kmph on my bike on the motorway the other day". i guarantee that the people writing have almost no bike skills. or how about leaving us and bothering the people in the biker law forum where you can have your 2c on the fact that they lost there license for exceeding the legal limit by sometimes double......

I totally agree that a professional who only practices their craft at an appropriate venue will be a safer road user when *driving normally* on public roads.

The trouble is that it is a case of monkey see monkey do for impressionable kids. They will then proceed to rap their cars around poles each and every Friday night while trying to hone their "skills".

Or in the case of motorcycles, you end up with situations like this...

It's interesting to see that you think that someone who is into stunting is a skilled rider and someone who isn't into stunting is a unskilled rider.

This is why I said earlier that it is a concern that stunting will become some kind of benchmark that new and young riders will think they need to aim for as it becomes more and more the norm and the thing to do on a bike.

Recently I remember reading a thread where someone was looking at getting a 900 Honda and the salesman pulled a wheelie and a stoppie in front of the shop to show him "how good it goes". WTF..??

What? no no, that is not what i implied. what i was saying is that you seem to think that stunting is VERY dangerous. i was replying that you should take your safety argument up with the people that think that doing almost double the speed limit is the way to ride there new 1000cc toys. it takes little skill to twist the throttle and try and go as fast as you can in a straight line..........

Did you read my post?? How many riders can you name that have died through doing stunts on thier bikes? How may riders can you name that have died and have not being doing stunts at the time?

My uncle died on his bike aged 21 (so under 30) and was not ride like an 'idiot'. He rode under a lorry that was parked on a blind bend at night with no lights. I don't think that you can blame him for that can you? Or can you make it into his fault some how?

I have friends who have also died on thier bikes and none of them were stunting or riding like 'dicks' they just had unfortunate accidents, end of story!


So much for their "amazing skills" making them safer on the roads though. <_<

Look at the way you parked your bike in your profile pic! that looks dangerous!!!. Motorbikes should be parked on firm level ground at all times. think of the kids. What if the wind had blown it over and a baby died. You really should think about how your picture is harming the motorcycle industry

Actually two of those KB members (and most probably the third) died from the result of stunting.

They just weren't as clever as they thought they were.

I can assure you that no children or animals were harmed in the making of the photograph. :innocent:

dude anybody who rides a motorbike knows its risky and that your playing with death the entire time.

you just seem to think that stunting gives you bad bike control and that anybody who does stunting has no skill or brains.

Meet Scary Gary and Willy:

You can always tell if somebody has control of there motorbike by just watching one thing

If they make the bike look like its a toy and there just throwing it around, they must have good bike control

If they make it look heavy and a big deal, then they generally cant control it for crap..

thats the way i think of it, so watch those guys and look how light they make the bike look!

umm... where did he say it make stunters safer?? He said they have "good bike control" You have no idea of how many 30+ riders I have seen with crashed Harleys. They thought they had good bike control too. Have you ever scraped knee? Worn the chicken strips right off your tires? Is this not dangerous?! Get a clue matey.

I must be mistaken as I thought that two of them were killed in a 'freak' accident. However they died I am sure that they are missed a great deal and that if I had to chose how my bloke was to go I would rather he goes enjoying what he loves than dying a slow, painful undignified death (like my old man did).

Stunt riding and Reckless riding are not the same. You don't seem to be able to distinguish between the two.

Can we just get Dipshit banned from the stunting forum?

He's obviously got nothing constructive to say, seems to love telling people what they should and shouldn't do and must be a bit retarded (Name = "Dipshit" Location = "Palmerston Otago" ).... Dipshit, are you actually Helen Clark?

Stunt riding and Reckless riding are not the same.

They are the same thing if performed on public roads.

And it is an increasing trend and problem...

How can you equate wheelies with riding fast and how can you equate both of these being doing by individuals with skill and those without?

Perhaps on busy public roads, but done in a controlled manor on a quiet industrial (public) road... its quite different.

dipshit, from your profile pic it looks like you have a shit hot sv1000 there..... pipes and everything. well done.........

why did you get the pipes? was it to go faster..... or to make your bike sound louder..... ? how obnoxious! and how dangerous trying to make a 1000cc bike go faster.... tut tut.

so you have never in your life taken your sv1000 over the speed limit of 100k? therfore never getting it out of 3rd? i would be very surprised if this is the case. therefore you also have been participating in illegal activity..... far far more dangerous than stunting on dead end streets at under 50kph.

Okay, let's put it this way.

What if stunting became popular and all the rage with young car drivers?

How do you think the general population would react to that?

And that's precisely the attitude that Motorcycling needs to get rid of.

hmmmm no answer, didn't think so....

Of course I don't stick religiously to speed limits. Who does? Mind you, if all these people here are claiming that they never stunt on public roads with other traffic around, then can I claim to never exceed the speed limits as well? <_<

My point is that the stunting trend will make motorcycling even more hazardous. e.g...

You pass one bike going the other way doing 140km/h but otherwise riding normally on a straight bit of road.

You then approach another bike on its back wheel with the rider standing on the seat or something.

Which of these two approaching bikes will be more predictable?

Why do you just agree to disagree.

You have your opinions and to be honest I do not see you ever changing the opinons or attitudes of the people on the stunts threads so would it not be a better use of your time to do something a little more productive?
