View Full Version : Crotch Rocket flop!
Screwball

A couple of my degenerate friends and I were on our way home from breakfast this morning. Stopped at a light behind 4 bikers on crotch rockets, two with paper plates. Riders in NEW leathers, full faced helmets.....usual crotch rocket apparel. Anyway, the LEFT TURN ARROW goes green, the lead crotch rocket takes off, realizes it is left turn not go and stops...............but doesn't put down his feet...........just flops over on his left side. I guess his 3 buddies were stunned, shocked, or just laughing their asses off, because my buddy Jim was the first to reach the guy and lift the bike off his leg. Nothing damaged, except the idiots ego, and worst yet, helped up by a 60+ year old Harley guy while his buddies were laughing.

I love the antics of the rocketeers. Had one pull up alonside of me exiting I-10 a few weeks back and we hit a red light before turning off toward the Harley stealership. I did my usual front/back braking to a smooth stop, and the idiot on the crotch rocket was so busy watching me he just squeezed a bit too hard on the front brake lever and did a front end wheelie....straight up. He lucked out and set down on 2 wheels, but he sure had an embarrassed look on his face when he did.

i guess my experience with them has been a little different. . .they've cut in front of me so closely on two separate occasions that i was afraid they were going to hit me. . .i just want to smack them. . .

Ok now I have to tell my dumb story.
A few years ago the "younger crowd" was showing off there nice bikes and crowding the group I was in. Well Mike had the lead that night and got feed up so to speak and took the chance.
Quick way to get the "younger crowd" to go away is let a sporty spank ones ass in a red light race.
Yep I was feed up and done it but that group left red faced.
NOTICE!!!!
I DO NOT support this activity but damn it was fun spanking that crotch rocket and seeing the girls face on his buddies bike!

ATA BOY MIKE. You got to teach them crotch stains a lesson sometimes. My RK will get beat light to light, But I like takng the Chevelle out and giving them a spankin. They pretty much go away after I kick there ass in a 4000lb car.

Yep, had that happen every time I have wridden up thee and I have been there a bunch. Last trip had one blow by me, and I had the pleasure of helping HER out of a ditch on the next turn. On the resort side, I had the additional pleasure of helping a guy from Louisiana with his broken collarbone from his ride on his rocket. Will they never learn!!??!!??
