Stupid overheard motorbike related comments & sayings?

[Str8 Jacket]

" You can't get blown over/off the road by wind"

[ellipsis]

...an unaware sprotbiker saying to me in front of his mates when I was at the Little River shop...I'll give you a two minute head start and beat your Sportster to the Hilltop...it could have been embarrassing for him, I would have had time to roll a smoke waiting for him at the top and I was also going the other way...

Scene 1, Act 1
Popo says "Why did you turn across in front of the bike?"
Punter says "I didn't see him"

As stupid as this interchange sounds, it happens a lot at crash scenes.

Odd that Chalky hasn't commented on this one yet.

Wondering if perhaps you meant to write "Orgasm" instead of "Organism"?

I understand if you don't know the difference for women. A lot of guys don't. loooooool

Women don't have orgasms. It's a well known KB fact.

Not with KB members maybe.

BTW, Targa cars all have cages, this means you can crash in to anything at any speed

Tell that to Peter Brock.

[darkwolf]

Tell that to Peter Brock.

In fairness, he only said you could crash into anything... and though in bad taste, Brockie did. Just unfortunate that it ended up as it did.

Heard this one the other day, for real.

"I don't register my bike because I'm a beneficiary and I get my benefit even if I get get injured. What do I need ACC for?"

Had a healthy discussion about it, found it an interesting point of view.

''Knobblies are dangerous on the road''

''you will be safe if you ride carefully''

''you have to change your chain and sprockets as a set''

''car drivers are stupid''

why bother giving them one when all they do is spit it out straight away?

The good ones keep them.

''Knobblies are dangerous on the road''

I was under the impression that they were, although I've never ridden with them on tar seal.

[onearmedbandit]

Only dangerous if you over ride their limit, same as any tyre then.

[haydes55]

I was under the impression that they were, although I've never ridden with them on tar seal.

My flatmate (Lets call him by his nickname "Gubby") rode his brothers new MX bike (250 KTM I think) up the road and back into the driveway, he game the throttle a little blip then pulled the front brakes (trying to scare his brother) front wheel locked up, new bike slides across the driveway. Good job Gubby.

I would presume dual purpose tyres are better (and could still be called knobblies).

...you have answered your own question.....mind you there would be millions under this misapprehension, that's why I posted...

Blame the rider....not the tyre


Also...it pays not to 'presume'...you will end up sounding like a fool in the wrong conversation...
