possible. We all have to start somewhere and remember that we were all "newbie - greenhorns" at one time or another. But, just a few days ago I saw a man and young boy on a new BMW cruiser. I heard the engine rev - higher and higher and the bike slowly pulled away - he must have been in 3rd gear! No big deal, but I got to thinking about his obvious lack of experience and that he might get seriously injured by his lack of skill - and why in the world was he riding downtown, at the newly renovated riverfront........... he must have wanted to show off his new rig - "lookin' kool". Just hope he doesn't turn into a "dead fool". Knot - experienced in poor judgment but still alive

That's almost as funny as my smoking a 15 year old in a Z-28 Daddy had just bought him. It would have been even worse too if my Kenda 270 wouldn't have spun for the first 20 feet because he caught me sitting in the greasy center part of the lane. LOL!!! Lamar A14 (Camaro killer)

"Always good for a laugh. I used to love pulling up next to some Harley dude on my XL600, revving it's little motor like crazy, then wheelie off in front of the slow lumbering hog. Oink!" I pulled to a stop beside a mildly chopped hog once and considered flexing some KLR muscle. However, I took a long look at the Definitely-Not-Harley cylinder cases, the seriously wide rear tire and the drag bars. When the light dropped he was gone in cloud of tire smoke with the front wheel lofted! Turns out he runs a stroker with twin plug heads and all kinds of trick go fast pieces (this is a small town). Now that would have been embarrassing. Rob
