    For a man is a slave to whatever has mastered him. Keep an open mind, just dont let your brains fall out.

    Kinda makes you wonder about the level of training some people receive from experienced people.

    No no no, even if he listens real close and pictures the concequences in detail he won't REALLY understand, this way he KNOWS it's a bad idea.

    Never protect kids from mistakes that won't actually kill 'em.
    Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the skid demon

    Because he was a total noob, and the people who should of been helping him were retards.
    My old man did that on one of my old bikes after a big speal about how he used to ride triumphs and bsa,s, did a wheel stand straight into a tree and broke his leg,fuck it was funny.

    Have you tried getting off the power when you're falling off a bike and holding onto the handle bars? Physics doesn't like it!

    No shit, I have actually seen it! That guy that came along to NASS had the same bike as me, now has a CBR600. He was pulling them from stop lights, makes me think he had hydraulics..
    Rest in peace Tony - you will be missed.
