Ive never understood the urge to fly up on a car that pissed you off and get real close and hope they dont hit the brakes or swerve a little bit and take you out. As they say in the MSF video "A motorcycle is never going to win against a car"

What about the guy on the scooter that let his foot get run over and punched out the ladies window? Pretty sure he wasnt American.

A MIRACLE posted:I can't wheelie either. Never tried tho. Well I can do it on a bicycle I assume it's similar. I think it's supposed to be easy on the fz07 Its really easy on a supermoto. The hard part is keeping it going.

Z3n posted:I've been doing wheelies for a few years now, never looped one. Came close a few times but if you work your way up to the balance point slowly (figure 6 months of weekly practice getting better at single gear power and clutch up wheelies to BP, then another 6 months to a year of weekly practice learning to shift and ride them out). If you're willing to operate on that timeline you probably won't crash learning to wheelie. Start with trying for a controllable, 6 inch wheelie, and then work your way up to a foot, and on from there. Cover the rear brake! Only thing I ever looped on was a dirt bike. KX-250 that thing had mega torque.

Is a 600 really too much power for some people? I had a 99 ZX-6R for a long time and it never really felt like it had too much power.

Sagebrush posted:Well, after seeing Ewan McGregor filling up his bike in Kazakhstan, I only refuel my motorcycle behind a blast-proof perspex shield using robotic remote manipulators. quote:Ewan McGregor had petrol sprayed into his (recently laser-corrected) eyes at filling stations on two occasions (one of which required a trip to an optometrist in Ukraine). In the first case, Boorman attempted to stop a petrol pump by putting his finger over the nozzle, only to send a jet of fuel directly into McGregor's face; in the second, petrol gushed out of McGregor's own bike's tank while filling. Who tries to stop a gas pump with their finger? What a bunch of loving dopes. Ewan go ahead and stop filling when the tank is full you moron. I have never had a problem filling any of my motorcycles, I must be a genius.
