Okay, so there's a guy here at work and he has a bike...it's his first bike so, let's play a game, whaddya think he has?
(I'll give you a hint, it's smaller than 1000cc)
Anyways, he's had this bike for about a year now and I think the only way he gets into work is in a straight line.
This guy currently holds the world record for biggest chicken strips....I'm not kidding when I say they have to be 2 or 3 inches of chicken on either side of the tire.
I don't have pics just yet, but I'm not sure how much skill is required to literally use the center 5 inches of a tire. I know I couldn't do it.
Either he hangs way, way off in every single turn (not highly likely) or it's a straight shot from his house to work (also not highly likely).
Once in a while I'll offer to take a rip on his bike to scrub the tires in but I'm sure he's aware that I'll ride that thing like a 3 dollar prosti.....errr....nevermind
If he rides in tomorrow, I'll get some pics up.
I still don't understand how he does it...

Based on your initial sarcasm I feel like you're hinting at a GSXR as it gets such a bad rap. Kinda like A-Rod...
Duct tape is like "The Force". It has a light side and a dark side, and it holds the universe together.
Oh yes... I remember those days.
Hangin out on the main drag, scopin gthe hotties and taking them for rides...
About 4 times a night the Anthem would be yelled.
"What do we do best?"
"WE POSE!!!"

Bergs what you need to do is get a white sharpie and write in the chicken strip area with things like "I have a vagina" "I am afraid to lean" "I sit down to Pee" "I have female parts" or the classic "Chicken Strip"
We used to do this down at Deals Gap. I would mark all the bike in the morning before folks got going, we would take a b4 and after picture. If you still had writing on we got to shave your head. I'm sure mycirus has some pics somewhere.

I live literally right near there... it's amazing the amount of douchebaggery I see there... I'm often riding by to head out of the city alone to look for some decent roads.
If you guys are going to come in and pose I'll join up. That shit would be funny.
I hope it's a duc 996-999 or anything like that...
Now that's some funny shit... I would love to do that to some newbury street homos.

I got behind a group of about 7 or 8 "sportbike riders" a year ago in NH. They almost came to a complete stop on every corner. I couldnt pass because it was a road with no passing and no clear view on any of the turns to make a safe pass. I can gurantee there were flat spots on everyone of their tires.
You suck at life. Why don't you quit?
My dad told me I could be anything I wanted when I grew up. So I became an Asshole.

I hang out on newbury just about every weeknight cause its nice to get out of the house, and its where we always meet up on weekends before we go for our rides. We are the typical type of posers, cept, well, we all have race licenses. Im sure people think we cant ride, but hey, whatever. Theres pretty girls there. And thats why I really ride.

There was a guy I worked with who had a cruiser of some sort. I asked him how he liked it one day and he said he liked it OK but found it a little hard to steer. In talking I eventually mentioned 'countersteering' and seeing his perplexed look I offered a short but comprehensive explanation.
The next day he came in and was BEAMING. He couldnt thank me enough. 'No problem...you're welcome!', I replied and spent the rest of the day trying to imagine how the fuck he had been riding before his epiphany.

Dude, I think about 50 percent of riders don't know the technique. If you go really slow, you can teeter a bike around a corner by making a million small attempts to steer it like a car. In between each attempt, the trail causes smal counter steers and you get through.
What I don't understand is how people handle the stress of not knowing if they'll make it through each and every turn!?
I took a picture for you guys
