Re: Looking for a Tandem Partner??
hey man opinion is your own tandem to the "stunt scene" may be weak but who do you do shows for? other pro riders? or the average motorcycle crowd? when was the last time you bought a stunt dvd? people who are not willing to do this stuff with there own bikes is who you as a stunt team or show rider has to ride for. they are the people who buy the dvds and support what we/you do. the biggest crowd pleaser is a burnout as we all know if you do shows that gets the most crowd excitment. The hint of danger is what they want death and destruction and if you dont understand stunting then adding another person must be just crazy becuse they cant do a wheelie by them selves let alone with another person. sorry man but the crowd is who has final say and they love it so .......
Last stunt dvd I got was probably 4-6 weeks ago.
Whats that have to do with anything?
I ride for myself, I ride for fun. I don't ride to impress people, which is why 99% of the time I ditch everyone to hit a parking lot alone.
But I can understand, if all you do is ride for the crowd.
I ride for myself. It's fun, and I love what I do.
I've never done a show, never been in a show. I'd do a show, any day, FREE of charge.
I'm not in it for the money. Just like I don't ride my dirt bike to become a professional racer. I do it because its fun, and its what I get down on doing.
I also don't drink alcohol to become a professional bar tender, I don't post on forums to make money, and I don't drive a lowered car because I think I'm a racer.
And since I ride for myself. I don't do tandems because I don't like them. I'll do one if someone wants to go for a wheelie, but thats it..
I also don't do bar tricks because I don't care for them
Just my 2 cents on tandems. Boring to watch, and boring to do!

the dvd is saying who buys the majority of the stunt dvd the ones who can stunt or the ones who want to stunt? Dont get me wrong man i ride to just push myself and have fun but if i can make money and ride free bikes why not?

Re: Looking for a Tandem Partner??
youre annoying me, stop quoting me. i dont care about tandem, or doing shows, or stunting for the kids, or wearing mohawks on your helmets, or trying to make money from riding, or selling videos or any of that nonsense. we dont ride for the same reasons so lets just not talk to each other k.

Re: Looking for a Tandem Partner??
well towlieee. good to hear some of the **** you wrote. doing it for fun. and doin a stunt show for FREE. gotta love the ppl that wanna charge. if i was good enough id do that **** for free too.
but the tandem is all opinion. no reason for you all to argue about it. i think its cool to watch sometimes. and i also agree with the part about a girl doin a wheelie on a squids bike being alot more dangerous than a skilled rider. which is why i never wheelie with anyone on my bike. i dont want to be responsible for someone elses life
