See... I think that's what helps us all feel such a strong camaraderie for one another... it's because everywhere we go there are thousands of us all around the world that all have to play "good will" ambassadors to the sport because the haters are plentifull.

And what I love is the "expert" friend that everyone has... they always talk **** on how they "used to always ride wheelies fo days on my dirtbike" or something like that. LOL
I had one guy start to dip into a conversation I was having, and when the subject of sprockets came up he proceeded to interrupt me and say, "the reason those guys all have big sprockets is so that they can ride fast wheelies on the highway...." never realizing that "those guys" is sitting right across the ****** table from his epicly wrong ***!
LOL
Same guy also said at the same party that, "When you see those guys drifting and doin rolling burnouts on those DVD's like that(accept he didn't call it rolling burnouts he just pointed to one on the TV) the only way they are doin it is cuz they throw down sand that you can't see with the camera on the parking lot."
yes people really are that stupid!

Re: whats the dumbest thing you've heard talking about stunting

Not the best but all i can remember right now cause it was last night.. Lol Some dumb *** was talking to us all in the lot and was trying to convince me that my 636 is a 2 cylinder 650 and that he knows this for a fact because his dad is a GM Mechanic... In his words "He went to school for that ****, You have no clue what your doing"

Re: whats the dumbest thing you've heard talking about stunting

i had a guy come over to buy a bike and he said to me that 1999 ZX-7R was the fastest bike ever build so i raised a price $500 on ZX-7R and he still bought it. All i said to him i agree.

I once overheard a guy trying to convince another that an R6 was faster than an R1 simply because of the number. I couldn't help but to intervene

Re: whats the dumbest thing you've heard talking about stunting

this dude that used to work at our shop was a compulsive liar and we got several great ones from him, like how his 92 yamaha seca 2 would run 180 while he was shifting into 5th gear. and how he had a ninja 250 that he ran 170mph in the eight mile at the strip. and my personal favorite was when he was willing to run my zx10 against his 450 fourwheeler for titles knowing my zx10 was running 5s. he swore i wouldnt stand a chance cause he had cams.

Re: whats the dumbest thing you've heard talking about stunting

Around here its almost a daily occurrence for the squids to argue over who can do the better wheelie.. And it's always the people arguing, that are lucky to wheelie for a block or two

Re: whats the dumbest thing you've heard talking about stunting

There is a man by the name of Stone here who is legendary for making up unbelievable tales of un-paralleled stunts. He cannot ride, but according to legend he has been offered ******* and beer on the street for his skills multiple times. Here are a few examples:

90mph 12-oclock on the freeway, girls show their *******, he blows his engine sending him into the guard-rail (while somehow still maintaining the wheelie). He "muscles" it down and comes to a safe stop. He swaps entire transmissions in less than 12 hours and makes his way to a local bike night (no guard rail marks on the bike), where I overhear him telling about how, on the way to that very bike night, he is again shown ******* at a red light then bet a case of beer he can't ride a sit-down 12-oclock to the next light. Of course he won the bet, and the *******.

He would come to the spot and ride scary power danglers back and forth, then pull over next to me and whisper "I'm just sand-bagging for everyone today".....

Apparently his cousin and Darius are tight.

His tales aren't limited to riding either. Once he blew the entire bottom of his face off in a horrible hydrolics/welding accident. His face is rebuilt with titanium and heals 3 weeks. There is not a scratch on his face as he is telling me this story.

I know this is wordy, but I have these tales burning a hole in my brain and I felt compelled to share.
