Sturgis Rat’s Hole Best in Show Custom Motorcycles

Custom Motorcycles

Custom motorcycles at the Rat’s Hole Custom Bike Show held at the Buffalo Chip during the 2013 Sturgis Rally.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia:

The Sturgis Motorcycle Rally is an American motorcycle rally held annually in Sturgis, South Dakota, usually during the first full week of August. It began in 1938 and was originally held for stunts and races, but it has evolved into being a meeting for motorcycle enthusiasts from around the world. It brings significant income to the citizens of Sturgis, a town of only 6,627 people. It is one of the largest motorcycle rallies in the world. (more…)

OCC Chopper Construction

“Bad Guys” Themed Chopper by OCC

OCC Chopper

Always interesting to watch custom craftsman putting together a motorcycle.

This is a real good video, but I think it would’ve been a lot better with the different music track. Now don’t get me wrong, I’m an old guy and maybe this appeals to the twenty-something crowd. But, like I said personally I think the music track takes away from how well the video is edited and put together. (more…)

Harley-Davidson Motorcycle

A great Harley-Davidson motorcycle video history of what many consider the most iconic motorcycle and well-known brand in the world today … Harley-Davidson Motorcycle!

Personally, my first motorcycle was an old Harley. I think it was in 1940’s something, with the suicide shift. (more…)

CA Motorcycle Crash

CA Motorcycle Crash

Scary California motorcycle crash lane splitting. This California motorcycle rider was very lucky to escape death or serious injury.

I lane split during rush hour but only when other traffic is almost completely stationary. When its moving faster than 20 to 30 miles an hour ill take the lane again. Lane splitting can be dangerous and you should be very alert but being rear ended when last in the traffic jam is no fun either on a bike. And you dont have a small vehicle to stand in line like an idiot in a cage. Its meant to be used as a nimble vehicle and that means lane splitting and filtering.  Luckily lane splitting is legal in California. (more…)

Street Motorcycle Accident

Street Motorcycle Accident

Street bike wheelie crash caught on camera from 2 different angles during annual MOM Middle Of The Map 2015 street stunt ride in Kansas City, MO. Watch as stunt bike rider gets owned in epic fail while riding wheelie performing illegal stunts on the highway. Street Motorcycle Accident jerk:

The biker is riding a highchair wheelie when the sport bike shuts off unexpectedly in the middle of the trick at high speeds causing the stunt bike rider to mouse trap and fly over the handlebars of his motorbike. This then causes huge crash on busy highway in heavy traffic from other motorcyclist and automobiles. The motorcycle seen wrecking in this video is a 2003-2004 Kawasaki Ninja ZX636 ZX6R custom build an setup from performing stunts and tricks as seen in this video footage.

This video clip serves as a great reminder to always wear the proper protective or safety gear when riding a motorcycle or attempting any stunts remember to wear protective or safety gear such as full face helmet, leather or mess jacket, back or spin protective vest, gloves, leather boots, and long pants because as you can see from this video something can go wrong in the blink of eye causing even the best riders to crash hard and get owned.

From my point of view as an older ‘sane’ motorcycle rider:

Sexy Angry Biker Girl

Biker Girl Fights Litter Bugs

Biker girl has her own way to fight street litter bugs, but, this is definitely not in the United States or she would have been shot or ran over.

Now, I should add that I personally think this is so fake it’s embarrassing.

What makes this female think she has the right to try and exact some kind of revenge? That’s not your job sweetheart. Just live your life and when you ride by an asshole like that, just give them the finger! (more…)

Aggressive Bikers Attack than get PayBack

Aggressive Bikers get payback

You just don’t mess with Russian car drivers, something bikers in Russia learn very soon.

Riding a bike doesn’t make you a celebrity or special, you try to open my car door, you’re going to get shot, no warning.

1:58 Wing mirror attached. 2:00 Wing mirror knocked off.  The time stamp in the bottom right corner jumps from 21 seconds to 23 seconds. Poor attempt to edit out a crucial part of the video where the biker obviously snaps the wing mirror off, that’s what made the car driver flip out. If you look carefully as the car pulls away at 2:00 you can see the side mirror hanging off (it’s in shadow) meaning the biker had just kicked it or something.
