    Check out the "Chicken Strips"!

    This is the only time you will ever see a shot like these!

    Chicken strips on the edge of the Yo Shows tyres! I'm amazed as I've never seen this phenominon occur on any of his other bikes. Maybe he's getting soft, maybe the new girlfriend is slowing him down. Or maybe, he's lulling me into a false sense of security before he gives me an absolute hiding.

    More than likely!

    Listen here, Sonny!

    If Johann "Peoples hero" Bruns leaves chicken strips, do you honestly think a mere mortal such as myself could do better?

    Let me just make a quick comparison so I don't embarras myself!

    Ah Chicken strips

    So thats what they are
    I doubt that mine could get any closer
    Modern tyres certainly are trick not like the 80's.

    I've seen Jimbo750 doing that when he's not "enhancing" his riding pics with photo-shop

    Crikey - and I thought I was a poofta for having 5-7mm chicken strips!
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    I tell you what, M/Racer. If you have no "chicken strips" on those tyres on the road, then you're a fucken riding god and I'll be staying the HELL outta your way when we meet on the 23rd.
