Default F&*% those rocket riders

Got my endorsment today,on my 2008 harley nightster.0 points off.There was only one other harley rider he to passed. All the crotch rocket guys were like man this is going to be so hard to do, they were all laughing at me, here I am 26 years old and on a harley? hell yeah, why do I want to ride a motorcycle that puts me face down and *** up? any way when I was done they were like man you made that look easy! how did you do that so smooth? My answer! (confidence) when you ride a HD you just get that confidence. The instructor called my bike the devil. Little did anybody know that I have been riding motorcycles my whole life, and thatI retired from racing professionlly two years ago. (my little secret) That little course is perfectly doable on any bike, if you can ride! those little snots thought they were hot **** with there 600's and 929's. But yet the harley guy passed and many of them did not, see ya at americade, ha ha ha.

The weird thing about this, is I had the exact same thing happen to me yesterday.

After a lifetime of bikin I finally got the M-endorsement (so i can finally ditch the lid legally). The kids on thier sport-bikes were making all kinds of mistakes. I went through the cones with no problem. 0 points off.

And to make the day just a little sweeter, a mistaken sportbike rider was taught to appreciate the 1200N's ability to GO when the light turns green

In this case, 600 > 1200...

Oh god... Not this argument again... Well ... okay...wth

As I have said before, I regularly take 600 rice rockets off the line... But only for a very short distance...Torque is your friend...

Now my buddy on his GSXR1000... I don't even attempt to play with that... That bike is obsurdly fast

Once the 6ers hit their power band... Just slow down and smile as they goby.... It really burns their rice [8D]....

Maybe they don't know how to ride... That's possible I guess... But until someone shows me otherwise... I'm going to continue believing that the 1200 can take the smaller ricer off the line

I got a rocket...2008 HondaCBR600 RR that I like to play around on in addition to my Harley. This way I get to hear everyone bash each other. All it tells me is there are a lot of insecure motorcycle riders out there.
