It's not unusual for me to be gritting my teeth, resisting comment while gripping the Jesus handle.

yea, I think everything just about covers it! LOL!

my worst riding habit is.....

.....making up my own lanes in traffic! Ya know, between the cars on the line, the breakdown line, wherever I fit! :LolLolLolLol:

ummmm gettin pissed off

eating too much at an all you can eat breakfast buffet...and then the inevitable evil that is unleashed 30 minutes into the ride

latley ive been riding my XR400 with and 440 bore kit and -1 tooth up front. so every time i start from a stop i sky the front end.

vernie, you necro

Forgetting that I'm my fighter and not my bicycle.

As a courier you kinda have to do full speed lane splits and blow red lights to make the cash. Some times on my fighter I haul up the lanes at a red light, look both ways for a gap in traffic and then blast through it. After I'm always like "oh, fuck I wasnt allowed to do that on this thing"

lol^^

Every time I ride, I pollute the environment with toxic 2-stroke smoke.

I love 2-stroke smoke...I'll take a super hit straight off the exhaust pipe.



I'm an evil, dirty hooligan. :voodoo:

Fucking Vernie...

pretending im ghost rider! :nuts:


but really....other than that....i think the hardest thing to remember to do correctly is sitting in the right form. sometimes i end up slouching or puttin weight on my wrists (usually after a long time of riding).

Me too, both. If I go on a long ride, I will try to remember to stuff in my spine armor. It makes me sit up straight.

Another one is "accidently" dropping quarters while "reaching for my phone", into people's radiators. It is that or break a window.

yea me too. almost every time i think about it i catch myself slouched over a ridicules amount.

I catch myself white knuckling the throttle. Basically squeezing it so much my hand starts to hurt. Not so much twisting it just squeezing really f'n hard. I had the same habit riding dirt and atv's.

Don't know why I do it either cause I don't do that with my left hand.

ditto, ended up straining my wrist pretty bad last year between the motorcycle and work (lots of drilling/tapping cast iron by hand). Still doing it a bit this year, but less frequently.

apparently i clench my teeth. i got home from a ride a few weeks ago, and realized i knocked off a rather large chunk of one of my back teeth. oh, and all the usual crap like speeding, duh

watchout for the epa and those hybrids

they will aim at you.

how can you resist that long stare on the blvd's in the summer months with those tiny shorts/skirts and the tube tops...

i don't know how many times i've almost run into stopped or turning cars..

you'd think with a gorgeous girl at home a guy would stop doing that... what the fuk am i saying... we're guys.. it's instinct..

oh and i'm with the others.. my speed gets me in trouble.. i tend not to look at the speedo.. i just ride..:rock:

When I accelerate really fast for some reason my body likes to flex every muscle in my neck. :nuts: It hurts afterward.
