Good one..tks for the post up. If that was you guys, you were riding the heck out of those KLR's. I've done it on a KLR and the 21 inch front wheel with dualsport tires had me oll over the road..nice ride and Vid

Thanks K
We were running Duros (60/40 tire)
Much better on the street than offroad ;)

Cheers

As nice as the Vid was, Why not next time you try it staying in your own lane. It annoys the ever living shit out of me to see retards like you riding beyond the limits of your bike and because of that taking up more than your share of the road. One day your luck and the poor bastard coming from the other directions luck are going to run out.

That my Friend I can tell you without any uncertainty as well as the guys that I ride with NO, I have had close calls and 2 friends taken out due to that crap. So that is a very strict rule that we live by.

My SigOther almost died, spent 3 wks in ICU due, many mths recovering due to an ASSHAT DOUBLE YELLOW CROSSER ! ! !
:mad:

:mad:

So yes, we're not very tolerant of ASSHAT DOUBLE YELLOW CROSSING riders...
Haven't seen your vid, can't access at work; but if you knowingly and intentionally cross the yeller, you're not riding well, just fast and stoopid.

Try staying in your lane the whole way, much more challenging... and safer for those around you.

Any video that ends with a crash can hardly be considered an example of good riding.

Agreed,
Riding the knobs off 33hp KLRs while it's cool & damp and dragging hard parts is stoopid :rolleyes:
Then to top it off the riders cross double yellows to pass up sportbikes :eek:

Hey guy, I did not mean to offend you. You guys really were flying.

I did not get on you for dragging parts.

I did not even get on you for crossing the yellow.

I just think it would be a little more impressive if you could do this without crashing.

If a ride that ends in a crash is a good ride, I'd sure hate to see what a bad ride is like!
