Motorcycle Exaggerations

Posted by John Davis  Published in Blog Posts

Like fishing has it’s whoppers such as the “one that got away”, and the outstanding catch which grows in length each time the story is told. So motorcycling has a few exaggerations, urban legends, or better stated; falsehoods, of it’s own. Here’s a few…

“I laid it down to avoid crashing.”

“I bought it to save money”.

“They all do that!”

I got 50′ of air.
I got on the throttle so hard I looped my bike (from a venture owner).
100 ft. lbs. of torque.
Handles like a sportbike (usually used in reference to a bike weighing at least 600 lbs).
A mile long wheelie.

Noise, what noise?

One near a dear to my heart:
“A helmet won’t save you in a 60 mph crash, so why wear one?”

This one made me laugh too…well jsut becasue:
I don’t need to ask the wife if I can ride this weekend!”

Nice. I love “I laid it down to avoid crashing.”

Another is:
I never get off the throttle in a corner.
