You boys! Always going on about the size of your chicken strips .....who cares?
Chicken strips are like willies...overrated, often lied about and size is no indication of ability

Ahhhh...but how often do you get to see willies out in the open? To know the owner IS lying?

I've got about an inch on my 170/70's.
Every time I start getting my lean on, shit scrapes on the ground. First my fat feet, then the base of the peg.
Almost highsided scraping that goddamn peg. Now I slip my ass into the corner and try getting a bitta lean on into the corner =)

Be nice... The Bandit ain't no RS50 in doughnut terms.

like to know if the pegs sit at different height, i dont hit anything on the road except my foot and i now bring them back on the peg and still dont touch the road .
are the pegs at different height to the 1200.

Willies? I don't bother lying about mine, size is adequate for the job and ability is no problem - I guarantee an orgasm every time, at least one of us will have one!

Personally I couldn't care less about chicken strips. I ride because I enjoy it, not so that someone will look closely at my tyres and say "wow, you're kewl!".

Sounds pretty immature to me mate.

in that case your feet arent on the pegs properly if your just scraping ya feet. If your scraping ya pegs then ya need to adjust ;em up... thats why teh harleys are going around the outside of you.... ! Your a prime example of thinking your at the limit.. Teh fact is you're at your limit.. not necassarily the bikes or other peoples..!!!

I feel like chicken tonight.. chicken tonight..!!!

Women know fully well that the quiet achievers are those to be trusted

Chicken strips...meh, who cares? I've never pretended to be an awesome rider.

Oh that's just my weekday commuter - I am getting a GSX-R1000 K9 for weekend fun, unless the unthinkable happens and the wrong numbers get draw on Saturday's Lotto. Otherwise I'll have to wait till next Winter to get me a sports bike for the weekends. I still won't care about the chicken strips though.

I think that maybe my scoot isn't the type of bike to worry about scrubbing off chicken strips with. But it IS damn good at getting me around Auckland during the week!

Yep, I guess I could have adjusted the pegs up and rode with my knees next to my head, or just gone over a bit further from the pegs up to the engine casing/fairings, that'd be so cool!!!

Just keep piling on teh excuses... i've seen all 101 of 'em.

* Edit, since the 101 excuses we're originally made, teh Hysobag came along.. so officially there are 102 excuses now.

I'm not such a fan of chicken strips. I think chicken thigh is tastier. You can do a quick cordon bleu with chicken thighs, ham and cheese that is very tasty. Not good for you though, just tasty.
