drifting question

[James Deuce]

So apart from quoting me out of context - you have managed to bold parts that indicate I'm a safe rider, take the bike to safe places to practice and sometimes watch the skateboarders at the local park (you see when you quote out of context it can become double edged).

ok so failing to quote me, link accusations to facts or do anything that a normal person would do the technique is to resort to mis-quoting out of context to create some of the old proverbial

I believe there is one state in the psychological step of an internet retard left to be achieved and and so far only one person has demonstrated the ability to achieve it - however this state is the usual domain of the 8 year old so I am expecting it to be a bit of effort for some of the members here.

Its usually about this stage that some of the more intelligent people will realise that the've made the rather stupid mistake of trying to ego bash someone and have been milked for all their worth.

although there were a few good opinions made by people (which are always worth reading and making a note of) - if not on the subject of the original post - I do listen and take note - just not agree. The rest of the posts were just amusement as far as I am concerned

You're a bigger cock than I thought. Thanks for the entertainment.

Thankfully I was right first time and he has not failed to disappoint me.

I just can't think of the last time I had a conversation like this with a person like that at an actual motocycle event... (you know, one you had to ride too) There's not a lot of chit chat about context and stuff...

Hopefully Tiggerz will find all the other fluffy animals and bugger off back to the 100 acre woods for a game of contextual pooh sticks! Or if we are lucky a big butch Heffalump will find him first and teach him to drift... (away)

Sheesh!

bah, looks like the boys have done the replies for me!

anyway to lighten it up a bit anyone got some good drifting pics of themselves?

i was 13 here on the old XR200, the picture doesnt really show it - all it shows is the old beast smoked a bit even back then! but i swear it was kindof doing it :P

Why, I think we've discovered the problem.

Tiggerz has lost his bounce!

haha. I think I have found that the egos doent like their cruisy little world challenged. You all managed to get to the last stage - well done. Top points.

Isnt it good to spend days on end trying to insult argue and prove how great you are only to find that the person your trying your best to afflict your cronyism on - was taking the piss.

I hope that the next time you try and inflict your poor attempt at user brow beating on some some poor bastard that just asked a simple question - you'll remember the time you got taken for a ride

(still having a chuckle).


What is it jeremy clarkson says.

Loooooserrrsss.

It wasn't a simple question. Practicing the stuff you are talking about in any public place is what is losing everybody the freedom to enjoy their motor vehicles of any description. There is no such thing as a safe public road or car park. If you wanted to ask a question that would have received a thousand positive answers, it would have been, "What is the best way to learn how to slide a bike"? without adding the crap about practicing in a public place.

As you have been told, learn how to do it on a race track, either sealed or off road. Don't do it where you can hurt my family or someone else's.

The only ego display I've seen here has been yours, in either the frankly pathetic attempt at trolling, or your utter disregard for the quality advice you got given at the start of the thread.

Everybody who has spoken up has done so because they are trying to avoid a fellow motorcyclist getting hurt. You on the other hand have used this forum for sport. You're not a motorcyclist. You're a cock. Go away little boy.

BLOODY HOON lol

Hurry up and get some photos of the XR500 going sideways

There is only one loser here Tiggerz.... The problem is the loser is just to dim to even understand it....

If you have the mis guided impression you have caused a big chuckle to the whole internet community by demonstrating your dazzling net ability and overwhelming powers of reasoning to humiliate people on this board... You really do need to go practise drifting because the personal contact you will enjoy with the medical proffession may help you understand that the world (the real one) communicates on a great many levels, many of which seem hidden to you.

Most motorcycle boards are more like a gigantic rally fire where you can ask stupid questions (you have that part down pat BTW), rib your mates and have a bit of fun crapping on about everything under the sun. You can certainly take the piss, provided you can take the lumps.

Talking about net etiquitte (spelling?), context etc is seldom required.

You really don't need to actually answer this, it's just an observation but ask yourself this. If we were to run a poll asking who made the biggest wally of themselves in this thread? What do you think the answer would be? And WHY?

Ps - For what it's worth! No motorcyclist would ever be caught dead quoting that selfcentred, Paul Holmes of motoring tele infomercialisim Jeremy Clarkson - He has said it on his program a great many times he hates motorcycles... So would I be concerned about his opinions? Nope!

Am I impressed by him and his mates thrashing the nuts of other peoples expensive cars, hell yes, if they could just do more of that and less yap it would be great!

'Drifting' is for wankers. Motorcyclists slide, not drift their bikes. And it tends to be the rear, rather than the front, as it's very easy to progress into a lowside when the front has exceeded the limits of traction...

You may also call it 'flat-track', although that's a bit Murkn.
On the WSB / MotoGP bikes, a lot of it's down to power, so it's a controlled power-slide. The guys that have come from 'flat-tracking' or other dirt-bike riding, or who have ridden supermotards tend to do it more often, as it's de rigeur for those sports. Interestingly, Colin Edwards said that riding supermotards mid-season completely stuffed up his MotoGP riding, as the two styles were so different, from a weight-distribution point of view.

also you dont really need to conserve a motard tyre - where the 180bhp on a supersoft tyre for 30 min you do

[avgas]

cos thats what all this is - bullshit and otherstuff.
Now im a true and true, 4 generation motorcyclist. But i also like to have a little fun But most of this cat fight here is pissing me off.
Shut up - go have a ride
Be a purist, or be a hoon - either way, jump on your bike and ride it the way you want, cos if you leave it in your shed a bitch about life then you dont bloody deserve a bike.
I remember when motorcyclist werent jerks that didnt compare each other like boy racers
enough said - im off to work so i can pay for my rear tyre

You know - I had to take a kid to hospital last year because his skateboard hit a small stone and he fell off and busted his arm in two places - he was wearing all the kit.

Some of you guys must be sniffing glue or something - because some of your statements bear no resemblance to reality.

So far I have heard that.

Sand/grass/race track is softer than road
You will not get injured riding a dirt bike on gravel roads (even if you go fast)
You will always get run over by a car if you dont drive perfectly
You will always go 100kph on a road bike but only 40kph on a dirt bike -even if they are the same capacity.
Everyone will get injured if they try something different.
People who have been riding in the 60s are always better than those who were riding in the 70s 80s or 90s - even if the machinery is totally different and they have never been on a modern machine.
People who go fast on the race track are also fast on the road
People who can ride on the road well will be experts on the race track.
You must be going extremely fast to perform any form of trick on a motorcycle.

I mean - please actually just take a look at what you are saying and think about reality. Some of you are just parroting old wives tales at best.

I was going to say that you have seriously lost it but upon reflection I've decided that you never had it in the first place.
