Cool, but not the same. But it doesn't matter, I wouldn't fit on a Moto GP bike anyway. A 100lbs & 100 yrs ago I sat on a Ducati 916 'cuz I wanted one b-a-a-a-d. I was crushed. My legs didn't even fit into the leg indentions on the tank.

That's just the post registration screen for a track day I signed up for this month in Houston ;) Regarding your last picture, man, I wish I had a drop of Jorge Martin's talent for said track day! :p

LMBO! Hey, there's still some big ol' boys out there on track though! My control rider at one Harris Hill track day was easily around 300 lbs, about 6'2", missing one eye and on a NINJA 300!!! :oops: It all looked funny until he almost LAPPED me on my 650. Big boy ...but a FAST boy! His leathers looked like black trash bags whipping in the wind! :D He definitely taught me the lines though ;):cool:

When you have to go to your new workplace that has zero parking facilities, even for the disabled staff. When the surrounding streets have no motorbike parking bays and traffic wardens that just live to issue tickets to anything that stays still long enough. Answer, just fence off your own bit of the world inside some roadworks and hope the drug addicts and beggars leave it alone! Don't know what I'll do when the road works finish though.....

years ago I saw someone on a Gold Wing and another person on a Valkyrie doing this in Deals Gap. They didn't hang off the side or have knee pads. Didn't really need to. The feller on the Valkyrie was passing sport bikes! I don't know how they could go so fast on a bike with not much lean angle. In any case it was impressive.

Last summer Dirt_Dad and I saw another version of the Batman bike with a side car. It was based on a smaller (Honda?) motorcycle and the sidecar was a platform with a go cart on it.

My god...:eek: That's a hell of a picture. Glad we didn't see all of that on the bike we saw.

That's all I'm going to say.
