Bah - there's nothign wrong with the occasional sidestreet whoolie. Just use your best judgement, which it seems you did.

As long as you have the means to take care of any damages that might come from it - do what you will (with best jusgement, of course)!

Thanks for the nice comments guys. I like to think that i am a pretty safe rider, no accidents and no tickets in 10+ years of riding (knock on wood), but no im not perfect as i doubt any of us are. Like Kid said, i used my best judgement, the street was clear, and everyone around knew what was about to happen, it was about the best situation i could ask for, no cops, no cars, and in a place where i was comfortable to try it.

Here maybe this will help.

TheSquid (motorcyclown squidus) is found for the most part in the northern hemisphere living in there parents basements or a single wide trailer that has been handle down threw the family.They tend to be most active during the warmer months in temperate climates. Althoughthey comes in all shapes and colors,they can generally be identified by certain specific behaviors.

The squid has a very high opinion of himself. "Modesty" is generally not part of his vocabulary and he often believes that his skills, knowledge and experience level make him something to be admired or at the very least, respected.

The squid generally has a fascination with speed on public roads. In many instances, the obsession is inversely proportional to his actual skill level. However, in the depths of the ocean, skill seems to be measured by the ability to twist the throttle in sixth gear on the interstate, or by pulling a wheelie threwa neighborhood with cars parked all around.

The squid has rituals, generally weekly, which are repeated throughout the riding season and become a major part of his life. They often involve cruising and hanging out at Starbucks on a Friday night. Very little happens during those gatherings which for the most part have an excitement level that ranks somewhere between that of watching paint dry and watching golf on TV. The squid generally stands next to his motorcycle and answers questions from curious passersby. Generally, "how fast can it go?" or "can you do a wheelie?" Which the answers are always the same. "178mph but I ran out of roadand I can wheelie for miles."

The squid loves the Internet. It is generally the best place for him to spread his knowledge and tell people how ignorant they are and that they need to, "get a life bro." (Trade marked byMotorcycle squidsand not to be used with out there written consent.)They can often be identified by sticking up for other squids that conduct themselves in a squidly manner.

The squids internet statements are to be considered factual and anyone trying to contest this will be met with a healthy dose of aggressiveness. ( e-gangsta threats on motorcycle forums)

The only people a squid shows any kind of respect for are: 1)Racers of the Isle of Man TT. 2) On occasion Superbike racers, even though going through the same corners over and over is not very manly and must be, to the squid's thinking, rather boring even thoughhe has actually never been on a racetrack himself. 3) Other squids.

It should be noted, for the sake of accuracy, that not all street riders are squids. Far from it, actually. But the vast majority of squids are street riders, although some squids have been known to purchase a racing license for the sole purpose of increasing their credibility when hanging out at there local Starbucks.

wow you know me well huh lol. for 1 I live in florida 2 I am a gear freak 3 I bet I put more miles on my bike in 1 month then you do in 6 months.4 If I was in love with horsepower I wouldn't have bought a f4i. I love doing n.runs here in florida which are very technical corners on a regular basis.
