The video would be a lot more interesting if the guy trying to give instructions as ATC wasn’t giving the instructions as the guy watching over her shoulder and knowing exactly what she was doing wrong.

Wouldn’t take much for some object to get in the trigger guard and get pushed in the right direction. Shouldn’t be transporting with a loaded chamber unless the weapon is actually being carried. Sounds like it was just riding as cargo.

No need to claim Tony slid a bit wide. Everyone knows he drove Hamlin to the wall and every driver would have done the same. Hamlin didn’t even have anything negative to say about it.

He’s gone? No wonder we have such an in depth replacement article.

On an 80s dirt bike with one knobby and one vintage looking road tire. At least that was the bike I took my exam on. Awful drum rear brake, yet expected to be using it with every stop. Uhh, sure. Mostly just had my foot covering it a bit so it looked that way.

I like that the lane splitting was done right in front of a cop, who gave precisely zero fucks. Then Mr. Fusion thinks “oh no that motorcycle just cut in front of me!!!!!” and remembers that one time that someone cut in front of him in 2nd grade. Should have taken the opportunity to go right when the car stopped in…

Not even “overlooked” by police - they do it. I watched a pretty long video of a guy filtering through stopped/crawling traffic in California and came up on a motorcycle cop doing the same.

“Or how the riders behind the bike, when the camera turns to face the cop, are sportbikes and dual sports. These guys weren’t just out for a mellow cruise.”

I stopped reading at that point. Assuming because they are on sportbikes and dual sports means they were out to ride aggressively and illegally? Yet they are still…

I dunno, I think paid vacation should suffice to keep him from repeating his actions.

If it had brake lights, sure. That’s just a switch activated by a tiny amount of pedal travel.

Not going to put the front half of the helmet down? What good is that going to be in a crash?

Then you have the media making money per click off it.

I bought a 2009 600RR with a hair under 25k on it last July. I’ve already put over 3k miles on it. Wouldn’t take much if you use it to commute to work or just ride several days a week, even in areas where winter happens.

“I’ll have Tony take a look at it tomorrow, okay?”

Did you stumble onto the wrong Gawker page?

I rode dirtbikes as a teenager (trailriding rather than more extreme motocross-esque stuff) and bought a CBR600RR in July as my first street motorcycle. I had previously ridden my dad’s Shadow 750 and Reflex when I was like 14. The RR is ridiculously fast, but the power delivery below 10,000rpm is pretty tame. I…

Well, it seems most people have forgot that their phone has a camera app, so they have to use Instagram instead and take a cropped square photo. They don’t know anything about portrait or landscape.

It’s actually very surprising that you had 281hp on two pulls in a row. So many factors can change results, and a turbo car is going to get heatsoaked pretty badly on a dyno.

600RR owner here. Yep, that looks terrifying. Put me in the middle with some front, side, and rollover protection. And something to make SUVs not chop your head off when they run over you.

Sounds like literally any movement of a two wheeled vehicle would cause this issue. Motorcycle rider rocking side to side or playing with the friction zone of the clutch. I do both when waiting at long stoplights sometimes.
