How to scare the crap out of your self on a motorcycle?
How to scare the crap out of your self on a motorcycle? Well you could try whacking the throttle wide open and top out the bike . But that's illegal . You could do wheelies on a dirt bike , but that takes skills . You could try an Evil Knievel jump ,but you need big sponsors to build the ramp. There must be a way to do this ? Wait ! I know ? First you will need little experience . In fact the less you have the easier it will be to scare your self . Ok all kidding aside we need to point out some over looked dangers .
I was talking to a guy who bought a Harley last year . He got his licence years ago when you didn't need to take a safety course . He told me how he made it half way home before he turned around and brought the bike back . He said it scared the crap out of him. Why ? Well simple . He did not have the skills to ride safely .Not knowing how to corner properly can be overwhelmingly scary . Not having the basics down before you ride in traffic is a recipe for disaster .
Most single vehicle accidents involving motorcycles are causes when a rider over shoots the corner. Not committing to the corner is vary bad for the rider. The basic understanding of YOU GO WHERE YOU LOOK must be taken seriously .Speeding is also a big part of accidents . Add speed and inexperience and you will have the perfect storm . And when people don't know what they don't know they are dangerous to them self's and others on the road . Ego and bravado doesn't help either .
The point here is to lean as much as you can about proper riding skills . Bikes are a lot of fun but can be lethal if not respected . Ride well ride safe take care .
