wolfman Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 i was looking more along the lines of the speed on a city streetHopefully, he learned his lesson... Although, I don't have much room to talk. I did a similar thing over the summer down at Hocking...minus going 150mph. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mandova Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 You can only get lucky so many times. At night too! First time I hit 120 mph on the freeway w/ the new bike, I just kept thinking what I was going to say to the state trooper and how much the ticket was going to be. I imagine that stupidity sets in at tripple digits on the street. Is that a good enough explaination? At that point you already think your invincible.

Dweezel Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 eh, when I bought my 750 the idiot i bought it off of had a 58 tooth sprocket on it, if I was going with the flow of freeway traffic, it would read 170, and thats assuming I was traveling about 80mph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dweezel Posted December 2, 2008 Report Share Posted December 2, 2008 yes, totally agreed, I'm just sayin he may not be going all that fast, but even 60 in crowded streets like that could royally ruin your day, say a car pulls out of a prking lot and forgets to turn it's lights on, whamo. hood ornament. Not to mention your more likely to get pulled out in front of at those speeds since people arn't expecting you to be traveling over 3 miles a min.

f4isvt Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 pretty good control seeing as he had the back tire locked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kawi kid Posted December 3, 2008 Author Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 ok and if he wasnt going as and paying attention he wouldnt have to have locked up the rear tire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
f4isvt Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 I am not justifying his speed on the city streets. All I am saying is he did a decent job controling the bike with the back tire locked up. Could I have steered it through those cars with the tire locked probably not, would I ever be in a situation like that probably not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWing'R Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 Damn, that was pretty close! Good save tho! Stupid, but still a good saveHe shoulda just kept going and blew the stop all together at that point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ross Posted December 3, 2008 Report Share Posted December 3, 2008 He shoulda just kept going and blew the stop all together at that pointhaha so instead of being a hitch cover on the back of that truck he could've taken the place of the bulldog on the front of a mack truck.
