Re: Cycle whore thread
Moto GP last night was pretty epic. Stoner is a great rider and all but I just hate him, for whatever reason. He seems like such a tool/dick to me.

Re: Cycle whore thread
sadly no. I don't really ride bikes. at least not for long; just long enough to break them.

Re: Cycle whore thread
I'm gunna be selfish and keep it for myself 
I'll prob still bring it to Richmond with me and do a little here and there when I find the time. also, I'll probably move up thursday if you will still be around and are still interested in trying on the helmet.
you could just find a toaster tank for this: http://harrisonburg.craigslist.org/mcy/2539412082.html
I was close to picking that up before I found the other two.
bummer. the white one is looking great so far though.

Re: Cycle whore thread
It wasn't very exciting, I watched it this morning. As long as Spies keeps placing in the top 5 I will be okay, but I think he should have stayed in World Super Bike. I think the racing there is much more exciting. MOTO2 and Daytona superbike are my favorite to watch though since it is standardized equipment with almost zero modification. It becomes so much more about the rider then the ride. This is not me saying the bike makes the winner though.

As an MSF instructor teaching in Wisconsin, I get to hear some great ones.
Never use your front brake. It'll just flip you over the handle bars and kill you.
Never wear a helmet. In a low speed crash it'll cause whip-lash and break your neck making you paralyzed.
Harleys are all American made with all American parts. (no idea why this still persists)
If you think you're going to crash into something forget the brakes and just bail off the bike.
If you're going to crash into something, lock the rear brake and lay it down. Sliding on the metal and skin(don't ask) will slow you faster than trying to use your brakes all the way to the obstacle.
Counter steering is a myth you just need to grab the bars like you mean it and really force the bike to do what you want it to.
The only motorcycles made (assembled) in America are harleys.
Doesn't matter what bike it is, hold the throttle wide open when you hit the starter button.
Motorcycle tires are just like car tires. It doesn't matter if they are 10 - 15 years old, they'll be OK.
