Stupid bike tricks?

[megavolt]

Maybe I just haven't been in the right place at the wrong time enough or what... but I'd like to know what's the stupidest thing you've seen someone do on a motorbike in traffic?

Today I was driving down barlow... we were all going about 80 (speed limit 70)... but I guess it wasn't fast enough for this bike in front of me. He starts gunning his engine at the guy in front of him... getting really close to the guy's bumper.... back off... then pulls a wheelie in the middle of traffic. The SUV in front finally changes lanes and the bike takes off... or so it would seem... he gets in front of the SUV and slows right down... WTF?...

Running straight at on coming traffic would count I think

Was walking downtown one afternoon. Watched a courier on a CBR600 get on, roll away from the curb, and proceed to wheelie down 4th ave thru 2 sets of lights. Was partly thinking "what an asshat" and "holy crap, nice stunt!"

[weeznah]

was at the the front of a line up at a red light and 3 guys doing wheelies on there bikes go right across the intersection for another hundred feet or so.
Dangerous because it was a bumpy road but it looked pretty cool.

I've seen some guy, with no licence plate, do a wheelie down crowchild, during morning rush hour. at one point i thought he was gonna smash into some car infront of him... he was showing off to the people on the LRT......

My buddy on a 500 trying to do wheelies towards a red light with cars infront of him (obv he couldn't get the front wheel up, but if he ever did get it up he was a goner)

At least we keep it in a parking lot

sorry new to bikes...
so did the just remove the fairings and replace them with crash cages? i love the naked bike look!

[teg_boya]

i saw the dumbest biker ever go down the middle of two lanes of traffic about three cars to both sides to beat the railway crossings signs/blockades before they were down...

nothing like fucking with a train on a car much less a bike

When I had my '66 Mustang a guy was catwalking it about 6 feet off my back bumper down the street in town. A quick stab of my brakes ended that in a hurry though:rofl:

what's funny is it's those guys who are the first to complain about how bikers get no respect from other drivers on the road:rolleyes:

much more likely that it was bought with the fairings pre-removed for him :P most people's stunt bikes are non registerable due to being written off.

stupidest bike trick I've seen was a guy on a gixxer 1000 doing a wheelie around a corner, on gravel, on the shoulder, while passing a mini van, directly in front of two other bikes...it's like hmmm, let's count the ways this could go wrong.

couple years ago, myself and a friend, both with crx's cruising exactly side by side, in the evening down a bumpy street going about 50 and all we hear was a quick roar and a bike flew in between us doing more than twice our speed. and we were swerving and dodging pot holes at the time.

Were you guys staring deeply into each others eyes as you were cruising exactly side by side?
