If yer bored, check out this video,
Couple a wheelies, coulpe endos and stoppies....
Some work, some don't.
Its sad to see these kids just casually destroy beautiful bikes.....must be a lot of mom and dad's money floating around...I'd hate to think somebody would do this with a bike they bought with earned money.
But what do I know.

Wanna see people go "ouch"....he he he

GOOD LORD...did you see the butt on that girl with the blue bikini? I know that's some daddies little baby, but that my friend, is the meaning of life!
Some of those dingle-berries weren't wearing helmets. I think we all knew someone growing up that could ride wheelies effortlessly; this is what they grow up to do!

my old man can do crazy [bleep] like that on anything with wheels. He is best on a dirtbike but still always scared the sh!t out of me on everything he has drove. I can hold my own on a bike but nothing like those guys.

Helmets should be required by law in 50 states theres no reason they shouldnt be. Hell anymore you can get some kickass looking helmets, and im sure if they got the money for a crotch rocket they can drop 150 for a helmet. Should my Dirt bike helmet was like 80 4 or 5 years ago. Somehow it still fits, its really tight though im gonna go get another soon. But heck I wear it when im bein a idiot on my BMX I used to wear it back in my sophmore year when we raced our pickups in the bean feilds our parents owned after combining...those terraces just come out of nowhere sometimes

I also think there should be a helmet law. If they can tell me that I have to wear a seat belt inside my own car in order to keep everyones insurance costs down (which I think is a bunch of BS), then why cant they use the same excuse for motorcycle helmets?

Kinda true when ya think about it.....but I see your point about the insurance side of it....
Even the word insurance makes my blood pressure go up

I am not in favor of helmet laws, just like I am not in favor of seat belt laws, just like I'm not in favor of many other laws that are put there to protect me from myself... I am of the opinion that if you are an adult (18, which IMO should be legal age to buy anything including alcohol, etc) then you should have the right to choose whether you wish to wear a seatbelt or helmet or whether you do not...

I say have the laws in place to keep those under 18 wearing such devices until such a time as they achieve 18 years of age, at which time they can consciously make their own choice about whether they want to or not...

The bottom line is I want to see the Government returning most daily choices to the hands of the citizens, not what some stuffed shirt thinks is best for them... I think that would assist us in returning to a world in which YOU AND YOU ALONE ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR YOUR OWN ACTIONS, REGARDLESS WHAT A LAWYER SAYS... That is my goal for the world, and if I can contribute to that in some way in my lifetime, I will surely do so... It will be a better world with such conditions occurring...

Sandman I think you are right about the drinking age too. Underage drinking wouldnt be as big of a deal if it was lower. We had a foreign exchange student from Germany last year and I ran track with him. We somehow got into that conversation one day, about how their drinkin age was 16 i think he said, so drinkin isnt a big deal over there.

I dont feel the same about the helmet or seatbelt law as you, but i do agree with the drinking age. I do see your point though, and I think it would be great to have someone like you in a place of power in this country.

Americans seem to rely too much on alcohol to have a good time. I have had 6-8 beers since i got home from Kuwait(June 14) and have had many wonderfull evenings and weekends. I know many people that can't get off work firday without saying "I am getting Fuucked up this weekend", and this is every Friday. The American mentallity towards alcohol is different from the rest of the world and until it changes the drinking age will not change the way american kids look at alcohol.

ive only had a high school education and a i still am smart enough to know that pavement is very hard and abrassive. Anyone who rides a bike without a helmet and protective clothing is truly an idiot, I mean what is going through there head beside maybe the road sign they hit?? expecially those douche bags "stuntaz" on mega HP sportbikes. But it is their resposibilty to be smart and wear gear, if they want to splatter themselves on the pavement then fine the faster their seed is wiped from the earth the better of humanity is.....

"You can't legislate stupidity away" Jesse Ventura
To any of you who say that their should be a helmet law I say this, their should be a law against people like you trying to tell others what they can and cannot do. I own a cycle and wear a helmet (most of the time but not always) but I do so because I CHOOSE TOO, thank God our state hasn't become THAT ignorant yet (although it won't be long because of fools like yourselves). I think there are to many people out their worrying about what someone else is doing and not spending enough time worrying about their own [email protected] selves. If I choose to go out and ride a cycle without a helmet thats MY business, not yours. Just like it isn't any of my business if you pick your nose and eat, or put one leg in your pants before the other, or pack your boyfriend up the pooper. Do what you want, SO LONG AS YOU DON'T hurt someone else in the process it dosn't matter to me. Come here and try to tell me how to live, THATS when you got BIG problems coming. I do agree their have to be rules for the children, they usually arn't to bright in the first place, but once you are old enough to go out and die for your country all bets are off. We need to cut government in half and put them back to the job they were originaly created to do, DEFENDING OUR BORDERS, not trying to micro manage our lives and rip off our pocket books. Sandman, you run for office, you got my vote.

Oh ya, after ranting I forgot to mention, what a buncha F*(king idiots and morons on that video clip. Just another reason abortions should be allowed. Everyone who got hurt in that crap deserved it, IMHO.
