I think I'll finally move to the USA, because I am fed up being called a racist when just saying facts.

Knocking on Carbon....very good! Do you have copyright for that?

Braintrash said:

In France, saying that doesn't work. You're still called racist.

Anyway, when I got my moto license, one shat its pants while riding and almost totaled the bike, the other one went through a red light 50 meters after the beginning. Both got their license.

No wonder how we are then not safe on the road.

let me get this straight.... you took your test w/ a guy who .... his pants during the test... and passed?

i mean, I know i've been close while riding plenty... but that's just really funny.

CAUTION!!! Painful to look at

Saw this a few weeks ago and had to save this pic...apparently it was parked and got reversed into by a lady driving a VW....guy said he had full coverage which implies that the lady wasn't paying for it...

Speaking of damaging bikes, I had my own episode 2230 last night...didnt realize how bad it was until this morning.

Well nothing's broken tho very swollen...riding on the hwy last night the tire of a semi exploded and I unavoidably ran over a big peice which also hit my foot...managed to keep the bike up thank God.

Did exrays and hyper extended my foot against and under the peg OUCH....was afraid to look down, felt like my foot was missing.

So here's some before and after some TLC, she's looking pretty again. Still some damage to the aluminum sleeve of the exhaust can...no biggy, she's not a show peice, shes a daily rider

be safe yall, cheers

with all the respect but the decal "SEDUCATIVE" need to be remove sorry

I got lucky the other week. Was about to ride out with my friend on his 2013 YZF-R1 and another friend on his new 2012 or 2013 Ducati Streetfighter 848. Was pushing the bike around my roommates truck (I have to push round through the grass because he sits in the driveway) and I lost my footing for a split second pushing it up over a small hump where the driveway dips (gravel driveway) and the bike came down slowly, luckily it rained the day before so it fell into the mud. Left a couple of small marks on the right fairing and the mirror just folded in. I got lucky. Just wiped it off and went riding.

Later that day we went out and I was trying to teach my friend how to do some power up wheelies on the backroads, I kept trying to explain to him through hand motions and just showing him how to "hop" it at first. I pulled over to tell him what I was explaining for a second. Some myself and the R1 guy take off and we notice my friend on the streetfighter is still sitting on the side of the road. We wait a sec then head back to see what the problem is. He is pissed trying to get the bike started and it won't start, I knew immediately what was wrong rolling up, I pulled next to him, looked at him with my visor still down and my arms crossed, just staring for a few seconds, he looks at me, tries hitting the starter button and throws his hands in the air... I just simply point down at his kickstand oh well... We have all done it. It's almost always something stupid, whether an old lady is just backing up, a piece of tire kicks up, a lump gets in the way, or you forget to put your kickstand up
