A guy I work with has come up with these gems:

1. "I corner so hard I wear out my front tire first."...Huh?

2. "If you need a new chain just take the old one and flip it the other way." The thing is still stretched!

3. "Your tire is square." It isn't, but thanks for the insult.

4. Finally, he "had to dump it" to avoid a collision and torques his knee because he is wearing jeans. He limps around for a few weeks and before the insurance check arrives, he buys a Ducati. Still wears no type of leg protection.

Let me tell there is more than one. I have personally seen crowds with 3 to 5 of them.

You should respond...

Pushing the front end too much in turns. Suspension is most likely setup incorrectly. Stop being a chicken and get on the gas.

The same applies to tires, brake pads, and condoms.

Your bike has a nut missing...between the headlight and taillight.

Good. Can't have you giving Superhawk owners a bad name.

ha ha I got one for ya. Got this guy thats on my ship, we went out a few months ago to a bar/night club about an hour away. This dude hits on the scary looking motorcycle girl in the back(scary motorcycle girls are hot), and asks her if she wants to ride on his "KAWA." Of course he says that he is an amature racer hoping to go pro soon, and she just eats it up. She all plays to the male ego and offers a friendly wager to race her and her 1000RR at the track. To say the least, guy never shows up...and I have been dating her for a year now. OH I LOVE IRONY... by the way, guy still talks **** and rides an early 90's Ninja 6 and a yellow convertible VW Beetle. NO OFFENSE TO VW!

No no no, you flip your UNDERWEAR inside out, not your chain. When my chain wears out I just take a link or two out and it's good as new!

I suggest you speak to said "gentleman" and convince him to buy a Harley, he sounds like a natural for the "Image R Us" crowd

It's nice to see Military on this site. Thank you all for keeping us safe.
I was on the USS Abraham Lincoln CVN-72.

I was ships company, s-6 division I was an AK2. Basically an airplane
parts man. If it flew on and off the carrier I gave the airwing parts to keep
them in the air.

Gotcha. So an airwing SK.

I provide the steam which launches the planes. Still in, with 5 1/2 to go before retirement.

Yeah they combined the rates of AK & SK to make them all SK's. Pretty stupid if you ask me. SK's don't know anything about repairable aviation
surplus. This all happened during the Clinton Admin. His "Right sizing the
military" B.S.
