    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

Riding home from a park today some 26yo dirt bag on a nice 03 gsxr750 pulls the front end up in 3rd gear on the highway standing on the rear pegs not 20 feet in front of me he 12oclock it OUCH ! no jacket no gloves. OMG never seen so much road rash he was crying like a little bitch I pulled him off the highway and got his bike out of the middle lane and called 911 The first responder was a NYS trooper he started talking to me like I was some kind of criminal until I told him I did not even know the guy. He wanted me to make a statement I told him I found him this way None of my business.

As soon as his front end was in the air, I hit the brakes and switched lanes I kind of thought he was going to crash not seeing any gear on him
my first impression was IDIOT ! ( I just found out who the guy was I will try to get some pics of the bike today )

That will stop him from doing it again for a little while. I expect he will be repeating the incident as soon as he is able. Most do.

Yeah I guess if I have to deal with a kamikaze, its better to deal with one on a bike rather than with something ten or more times bigger. Maybe I'm just getting jaded with clowns that think nothing of putting me at risk for no reason. It may sound harsh, and probably will catch some flak for saying this, but I have no sympathy for the guy.

I am with you ! 110% I just feel really bad for the bike not its fault
 
I don't get it. I really don't. I am acquainted with some bonafide stunters. They have have a big warehouse loading lot that they get to use every Sunday for stunting, and their bikes are geared so low for torque that they probably top 65 at WFO. They don't wear much gear since mobility is an issue, but then again they're doing 20-25 tops.

I have 0 respect for dummies doing it big on public roads. I've brought it up more than a few times, but it's usually coming out of a corner quick and giving it a lot of throttle, but I sure as crap don't try and hold it out. Saw a guy get T-boned on the back wheel and destroy a beautiful Mille RSV.

Dumbdumbs.
 
Fortunately for me, I have no clue how to do something like this nor do I think my bike could.

I've seen a few folks do these kinds of stunts on the road and really wonder what their thoughts are as they go up and if they really are so confident they could handle someone coming out of a sidestreet pretty quick. I get scared just looking at it knowing I'm close to their path of travel should they go down.

My B12 will fly the front wheel most any time, no question about it. Once in a while, I will do it for a quick giggle, but never in traffic or even when there is any car in sight. I save that stuff for empty road.

On an Empty country road....go nuts, don't care if you hold a wheelie until the gas tank is dry.

But on busy streets, it's just stupid!

The ONLY reason they do it, is to "impress" people.

Problem is...Everyone and their grandmother has seen people flying by doing wheelies!
So it's not really impressive anymore.
