See thats why god made mopeds so everyone would have a ride they could handle.
To fix the problem one should not make more assumptions than the minimum needed.

That is so funny! Everyone around him (the older guys) were telling him to quit, as he had no idea what he was doing. Did you see the one guy flip his kill-switch in frustration?1979 XS1100F

I also love that when he drops it instead of folks rushing over to help him out, the only person who comes over is taking pictures.

This falls under the category: "What was he thinking"?? No helmet, no gloves, no jacket -and- attempting to impress the ladies with a few stunts. (That never ends well does it guys?)
I feel bad for the poor machine
. Poppin' at the Rev Limiter, Repeated jerks on the Chain, Clutch trying to engage at likely 12,000 rpm, oh my!!
Plates are from Croatia. Must have been nothing else to do that day but try and ruin a good bike. A lesson in the value of accepting input from your friends.
A burnout or stoppie certainly ain't my thing, but do appreciate the skill involved when executed by a pro in a safe setting.

That's a good reason not to try that s##t in public, at least the first time, but i suspect there may have been some drinkin' goin' on too. Anyway, further to that I really hate mechanical abuse. Burnouts and that kind of stuff really bother me for some reason. Could attribute it to "mechanical empathy" I guess. Sounds kinda silly unless you have it, but I bet a lot of members of this forum have it. Doesn't mean I am against pushing to the limit for a purpose, racing, drag racing, speed records, even pushing hard through some "twisties". Anyway I digress, the guys a tool.Comment
