Re: stupid harleys
craziness... revlimiter clutch ups are the new sickness man you didn't know... just ask wink.
and also I like it how all the harley guys try to wave down low with their hands... I think it must be that the lower you can get your hand the more "outlaw biker" you are or something... haha
+1 on the waving to them like an idiot... if I"m not peekin through my forks and fairings with my hand straight up in the air in a middle-finger champion... then I always wave like the 4H queen of the county fair during the parade! LOL
waving is gay.

Re: stupid harleys
Up here, when I see another bike on a smaller road or highway I give the #1 pointing at the ground....... So it won't be confused with hand signal to turn. When I see someone with shorts and/or no helmet (RI is 3 miles away) I give em the big thumbs down........
If I see a chick on a bike, I nod like some *** knight on his rusty steed, and if I wave and don't get a return, I flip off pretty much everyone in between me and my house.
Did I mention I don't ride the streets much?

Re: stupid harleys
STOP HATIN' THE CLUTCH UP! u guys r never happy 
i was in the process of turning on my tank cam on, trying to find a way to cut across two lanes of rush hour traffic to get in front a car in that one open lane, then standing up, searching behind me for cops and yes maybe clutching it up CLOSE to the limitter (remember, this is an 04 R1, there is no limit). can't always get it perfect every time with so much going on but I'm pretty good at using my body, throttle and brake control to correct my mistakes. plus I got a pretty cool spontaneous vid without all the chase trucks you guys have.
btw I don't do much highway crap anymore, was way too easy on an R1 but this is about the only vid I have doing a stand-up in the rain not 12 but close and a bit longer than the other
kinda sucks always having to defend myself here cuz i been doin this **** forever and have not gone a day without a sreet bike since I was 19 and dirtbike long b4 that ive done wheelies every single day that i could ride and wasnt hurt. every day i ride to work doing no less than 3 wheelies on the way and cuz i get to work so early i spend another 15 mins doing 1st and 2nd gear too fast wheelies there. for years ive been doing this and on every gd thing whith wheels. hell i still like trying to find bp in a fully loaded shopping cart :YEAH
sure i lost most of u by now but gdammit show some respect!
not only have i been doing this **** since I was ur age (25+ yrs) but have been lucky enough to not get into too much trouble and only a few crashes never hurt another person either and entertained plenty now im almost 50 and when it's time to slow down I find sl Im hooked and guess what im not ready to grow up yet and yes im physically fit enuf to give this one shot have the ***** and desire but could really use some support too. show a brother some love! 
I know i still suck. why im slowin' it down................... somehow
