Interesting, I think, excerpt...

Sportbikes today are so remarkably good, their performance levels so astonishingly high, that one is able to extract only a small fraction of that performance on any public road. Fact is, riding really fast on the street is a whole lot less about skill and talent, and a whole lot more about simply how big a bet one is willing to place on the table. The bet, the stakes, being you, of course.

I'm thinking you're talking about Wheelies... IF so, I'm just saying it's not my thing. I'll admit to enjoying the show, but the consequences are to great for me. That's all...

If I misinterpret it, my bad.

 

Would someone place me back into the original world this thread started in... I am so lost!

Sounds like you are just telling everyone what they already know. But its not all bikers. More just Squids

 

It was just an Interesting excerpt from an article originally appeared in the June 2003 issue of Sport Rider. I figured others would think it was interesting as well. That's all... Posted seem to take a weird course of their own on these Forums. O... well... sh*t happens.

The picture...well... it's pointless...
