WTF 0-60 in less than a second?


I never did a burnout before, so can someone tell us what went wrong and how he failed so hard? I thought burnouts were simple to execute.

no he said he isnt the racer for the bike...

and as for what went wrong.... electric bikes unlike normal bikes have no gears, or clutch so you just turn the throttle and it goes...

what happened here is the tire grabbed, and the idiot freaked out (instead of staying calm) and didnt let go of the throttle...

lmao yup. bike started to push forward but he wanted to go faster >_<

when you do a burnout, are you not holding in the front brake while the tires are spinning? but how can brakes keep a bike, that does 0-60 in less than a second, standing still? really slippery rear tire?

yea you hold the front brake... also your supposed to put your weight on the front tire....

with a bike like that you get it good and wet and hope like hell it doesnt grab haha...

on a street bike you can pull the break, drop the bike into gear, put your weight on the front, then slowly let our your clutch and give the bike small mounts of gas till the tire breaks loose...

vs this you just twist the throttle and say well hopefully the tire breaks loose
