Okay, let's list a few tips for riding since we are starting the new year. PLEASE, don't bastardize the thread. I want everyone thinking straight to start the new year. I'll start with a few and just keep adding.

Wear your **** (yes, leathers.......a cow died to protect your skin, use it)
Take it easy at first, salt film on roads and cold roads spell NO HOOKUP
Don Fucck with cars, they always win because they are bigger.

 

Always look where your going not where you have been.

 

Be aware of animals crossing the roads.

 

i am always lookin in my mirrors when im slowing down or coming to a stop.(if youve ever been *** packed ,this is a good practice)the green light you are approaching is not yours.people run red lights all the time.if you are in your car and they hit you,you may live.if you are on your bike and they hit you,you probably wont live.and ALWAYS assume that someone is going to turn left in front of you.if you are ready and you know your bikes brakes,youll be able to stop in time.

 

dans right guys.those knuckleheads(flat line racing)that think its funny to carry rocks or change in their pockets to throw at cars that cut them off,are really stupid.dont yell or flip them off,it just gives a bad impression to all motorists that see you do it.if a car sees you at the last minute and avoids you, wave in a thankful manner.if you act like a bad ***,you might end up on your *** leavin all of us behind to grieve over your familys loss.

 

be careful turning around in the street.these bikes like to pinch up really quik.your secret is safe with me my friend.

 

im going to add my lil tid bit even if i dont ride my own bike.....chicks will dig u just cuz you ride a bike.....if you can stunt thats cool too but there is no need to be a jack@$$ and hurt yourself or someone else just trying to show off for a piece of @$$.

 

The new passing light they're installing is NOT a laser gun! It really pisses people off when you ride behind them and flash it at machine gun speeds.

 

the point of my earlier post was to say be careful w/new passangers because they dont always know whats going on and if you walk away w/only road rash guaranteed getting that piece of *** is going to be the last thing on your mind.....so lets have a great summer!!!!

 

check the pressure in tires...crashed already because I was 15 lbs low.....learn from my mistake...tire pressure always changes with the temp changing

 

In times of confusion, just think...
What would Big Jarsh Do?

Another thing to add...
Don't do a stoppie at every chance possible. Make sure you give the people behind you warning that you are going to do one, too many near misses last year. We aren't ALL mind readers.

Just remembered this one...

It's cool that we can ride next to eachother, But when we start to get above 100 mph it's not to wise to stick right next to someone.

Those twisties are fun, but there's nothing more frustrating then to have someone try to ride next to you on those corners, Get in front or behind, Depending on how hard you are going to bang them corners.

passing light?

 

It's the little trigger that allows you to flash your High Beams with out having to flip your switch..

Make sure your Lid is securely tied on you head

Big Jarsh

 

Make sure you're pants aren't too baggy, sucks when they get stuck on the pegs when your trying to put your foot down at a stop light/sign.

 

Yeah and Tie your shoes too...
those get caught on the Pegs alot... Also could get sucked into the chain.


Big Jarsh

 

we should ban"stunts" altogether when we are in close quarters goin down the road.like jarsh said,these lil tricks when we are bunched up can knock us all down.

 

Good shiitt guys, a lot of good things to think about. After about another week, I'll put these *****s in one post and stick them up top.

 

when riding in a group, dont use just your signals, use your hands!!!
Also, riding in a group does not mean you can buzz people.

That happened to me once, I was riding with this kid and he decided to do a tank spreader in my lane while passing me. He came like 2 inches from kicking me in the head.
Dont be a squid!!! :YEAH

Just my 2
