Things (imo) you should and shouldn't do if you a biker

you should never ever clutchless shift,not if you care about your beloved machine:D

you should never ever be seen on a motorbike out in public wearing one of these either

you should always leave your bike in first when stationary at the lights,it makes you more of a man

try to take atleast one car mirror out daily,when filtering through traffic

if on a long journey and your out in the wilds of the wilderness don't stop to take a #1 or #2 just go while your still riding the bike,its what real men do:p
 
Surely something annoys you when your out on the road?

Like jumped up little upstarts on triumph triples:p

And quad bikes,don't get those either,unless your a farmer with a couple of acres

Seems ibe struck a raw nerve with this clutchless shifting malarky

There's no skill in it at all tho,its easy the skill comes in using a clutch

I think you watch to many YouTube videos and think ahh that's cool I'll try that

I think it's the fact he can't do it properly and thinks he's damaging his gearbox then has to 'spread the word'.

I've done clutchless upshifts since my 125cc days, and I will continue doing them.. both up and down... because I can

But its gay tho

On the track then yh but road riding its a waste of time

Do whatever you want I just wouldn't do it to my machines
 
You shouldn't do no handed either when a fellow biker is following you it doesn't impress anyone

I seem to see a lot of thst

It's 'gay'? You really typed that?

It's a sequential gearbox, as long as engine load has been removed from it it does no harm whatsoever, up and down. You claim to have ridden for 30 years but you come across as clueless

Mate calm down,what makes you think I don't know anything? I used to do it as a teen had to do it on my zx10r when the clutch cable snapped miles from home,up and down the box

Whether it damages your bike or not I just feel its wrong to do,just feels wrong to me,I'm just as quickly using the clutch lever that's the end of it now you say tomato n I'll say tomatoe
 
abs is just a normal brake only it pulsates slightly so not to lock the wheel? doesn't know or care about lean angle as far as im aware
 
thinkso,ive never used abs but all it does is what youd do manually with your hand or foot,pump the brake to stop it locking (or if it locks let go and re apply the brake but as fast as you can,no abs)
 
Try not to get into a chase with local Chav and loud stereo if he races away from the lights,same with any fellow bikers,although its hard to resist

But it might end in an accident
 
do always wear clean undies,you never know if nursie will see them if you ever come a cropper,same goes for washing your hair haha
 
haha yh,some do though

would you nod to plod? I have a few times and they nod back,n I mutter **** under my breath as ive past them:D
 
it probably means ohh your still alive? respect,

most don't see you either,ive often just caught a glimps of a biker and its too late to nod
 
that's one of the reasons I bought a flip helmet,they would often come on the loud speaker telling me to take off my helmet so id just ride off

I couldn't fathom the pay at the pump meters at the time either,but now ive worked it out
