Just had a dude at work wreck his bike saying he wasnt being stoopid (sport bike rider), when all he would ever talk about was how many wheelies and stopies he was doing on the way to work good job idiot.

Oh yeah, if your in Cali and assuming (shouldn't though) that pic of you was taken there, where's your skid lid?
One more thing just something I noticed in your pic. Please, please wear pants that are long enough to those lilly white ankles of yours when you ride. LMAO.
1. the guy rides a softtail (the ultimate poser bike)...no way can he get to the edge of his tires with out scraping off his floor boards...lets see the bitch strips on your HD......

2. who are you the Helmet police? "someone better dial 911"


bottom line in everything in life there are posers. I was fishing at a spot I have been going to all of my life and over the last few year I have seen all kinds of "fly fishermen" all geared up stomping through the river not catching a damn thing....from what I can tell it is more important to them to have all the cool gear rather than actually catch a fish...posers?...hell yeah!!!!

Posers everywhere. So what--they only fool other posers or fools. Sooner or later everyone gets a sand check---. That always separates the posers from the non posers. Not everyone is what they seem to be.

Most of the guys riding sport bikes that are dressed in full leathers are doing so because they are on a more aggressive ride. They know the odds of going down are higher. If their goal was to be dragging knee everywhere I am sure they would be taking it to the track. Well, some of them would.

Getting your knee down on the street can be difficult and unsafe. After a wreck at Palomar Mountain in 2004, I decided to take it to the track. A racetrack is a much safer place to push your sport bike to the limit. The only time I ever dragged my knee was on a racetrack, and I rode sport bikes for 10 years before getting my Harley.

That's what we call them here in Vegas too.

BTW, I wouldn't judge their "lean angle" ability on scuff up knee sliders. The real tell tale sign is how far out to the edges the rear tire is worn.
