Remember how, in another thread, I said that it's hard to find an RC51 that isn't fucked up? This is why.

poor poor RC.

I loved the RC and would probably have one if it wasn't for the uncomfortable ergos. I'm 6'4 and did everything I could to try to talk myself into being comfortable on it, and still could not do it.

I can honestly say that is on thing the TL or the CBR has never seen.

Gee what a bunch of sticks in the mud you guys are! None of you have ever done a burn out on a bike or in a car? BTW I seriously doubt that doing a burnout is any harder on the bike than running it normally, at a given speed/rpm under load. If you think it is, please explain why. Oh and please no crazy extreme cases... I'm talking the <30 second type burnouts that guy was doing.

Maybe...but other than destroying a tire, what's the big deal? Heck, his buddy with the annoying laugh was more disturbing imho...

Never have. Not so much a stick in the mud either, just never really felt it had to be done. At least on a bike.

A car on the other hand, there has been a few here or there.

I don't have the disposable income to destroy a bike tire quicker than necessary.

On my cutlass, from time to time yes, but the bike... only once, and the tire was already down to cords about to be changed out.

Oh I understand that completely! You know me, I just love these types of discussions...

I just like to get behind why someone has to be a "homo" for doing a burnout... By that logic most of us are gay... I'd imagine that the distinction can't be made exempting different types of vehicles. What's the difference whether it's a bike or a car/truck? What about guys that do it on the track when they win a race? Are they "homos" too? This guy was doing it in an empty lot, wearing full gear...if there's ever been a "safe" burnout, this was definitely in that category...

BTW the possibility does exist that this guy was burning off a worn out track day tire. They normally have tons of center rubber left, you may as well burn it off.
