Seisey Steve. I agree. The man can ride for sure. I'll wager he has been on his ass a few times learning to do that. I had Seven Harley's and thirty years of riding before I decided to stop. No way would I or could I ride like that.
Stated riding on a 74 FX Super Glide IN 1974,never was foolish enough to ride like that. (Was foolish in other ways though.) I've had more than my share of "Road Rash ".
SuperGlides, Electra-Glides, XL's,an XR1000,and an FXR all have been in my garage at one time or another. Only H-D I have now is a '06 VRSCR Street Rod. Haven't ridden it since the first week of June. Had a tumor removed in my brain, have no idea if or when I'll ever I'll ride again.
@Heathen, I moved to 3 wheels after 50 years because of inner ear problems.No it ain't my old FLHS but it still gets you a bug to chew on!By the by, chicks our age actually seem to prefer 3 wheels to 2, go figure LOL.
Oldawg, I've picked up an inner ear issue myself earlier this year, seriously considering putting a trike kit on my softtail. I'm not going to buy a newer bike so it's that or giving up riding completely. Be safe out there. JD
You guys are looking at this entirely the wrong way. Motorcyclists are a major source of organ donations and this knucklehead is merely trying to render a public service.
As a rider of Harleys for 35 yrs. i agree with you and E. shane, good control but not the place to be doing that. I could not afford to keep tires on it!!! grayman
I must be missing something....but why does this thing sound like a 2-stroke outboard motor? He does have some great skills, but it's on the level of a dentist who works on a unicycle. You might watch, but...who would want to ride with him?
Been Riding since the late 60s. Mostly old Harley Pans and Shovels. The new Harleys as well as the "Crotch Rockets" have some serious horsepower to weight ratios. Which means motorheads can do more as seen in the vid! I was crazy back when I was younger, but never did the wheelie forever are burn the rear tire up trick while half naked! I just didn't have the money to pay for new tires or hospital bills! I was lucky to not crash too bad. Now, in my 60s I still ride my 68 Harley Shovel and my 2015 Road King.......but far away as possible from crazies! Peeps with brains and without will do crazy shit! Some getaway with it and some survive with scars or worse and some just Die! Always been that way, since the first idiot decided to do tricks on a chariot!
While my first thoughts were identical to the others posted here, it occurred to me if this guy had an athletic build and was riding a motocross bike with associated gear, most people would be impressed with his "skills", but since he's fat and wearing overalls, he's a moron.
I road for more than 50 years before inner ear stuff moved me to 3 wheels. I've known beaucoup riders who were fat, overalls wearing men and some women with that kind of skill. The difference being they had the common sense and courtesy to show those skills in places and ways that neither endangered others nor wantonly destroyed a good ride.By the way winter weather was for me a change from overalls to carharts.I'm candy that way.
The I.Q. of the driver is inversely proportional to the motorcycle decibel level.
ReplyDeleteI kept waiting for the back tire to pop and laugh my ass off when he went skating down the blacktop on his face. Sad to say I was disappointed.
ReplyDeleteNemo
That is SOME bike control.
ReplyDeleteAmazing what you can do even without a brain.
DeleteI watched through to the end waiting for a stopped Kenworth....and was disappointed.
ReplyDeleteI was hoping for at least some road rash, but I like your line of thinking
DeleteI wonder how many training wheels he went through learning that shit.

I was so rooting for the pavement!
ReplyDeleteAt some point, karma will come.
ReplyDeleteThe term "tithead" springs to mind.
ReplyDeletePhil B
I can't be the only person rooting for the blacktop. That jackass is gonna become road burger one day, and the gene pool will be better for it.

ReplyDeleteThink of all the money and effort wasted to notify drivers to keep a lookout for motorcycles every year.
ReplyDeleteShame to watch some dumbass destroy a perfectly good machine without a climactic ending.

DeleteThese are the same people who beg us not to throw grass clippings onto the road when we mow.
ReplyDeleteOxygen thief. Don't care how good his bike control is. Take your dumbfuckery to a track where you only risk killing yourself and not others.

ReplyDeleteSounds like he was in the rev limiter, it'll give you that popping sound
DeleteJD
I'm at a loss.
ReplyDeleteProficient control of his machine, with an unlimited amount of dumbfuckery applied demonstrating it.
If he's ACTUALLY that fucking good, why's isn't he in Hollywood or NY using his 'skill' instead of posting WTF BS videos on the net his buddies take.
Good going Buddy. =/
For Sale: used Harley Davidson. Needs engine, chain, sprockets, rear tire. Front tire like new.
ReplyDeleteRentals?
ReplyDeleteEver feel sorry for some inanimate object ?
ReplyDeleteWas anyone else hoping that this ended with that fool sustaining over 90% road rash?
ReplyDeleteThat is no way to treat a motorcycle. I was hoping that fat asshole would fall off and lose a few pound of flesh to road rash. What putz.
