Stupidest Thing You've Done On A Bike [Archive]

My friend today revealed to me, probably foolishly that he dropped his bike at a red light. His phone rang while he was stopped, and he normally turns it off, this time he forgot, so thinking he would turn it off while he had a red light he pulled it out of his pocket and dropped it onto the road. Leaning over to pick up the phone, he dropped the bike. I laughed my arse off and openly told him hes f***ing retarded.

My first time on a bike, my uncles old Postie... i think i was about 12., I got on and proceeded to ride at a very slow pace into a wall of aluminium buckets! I decided from that moment I was just gonna be one hell of a pillion.:D

So the point is, just for fun... Reveal your dumbest moment riding a bike :)

p.s sorry if this has been done before.

Regarding "Police Involvement Stories" (PIS For short) Maybe everyone can speak of a "friend" they "once knew" called...... um..... "Bob" Who did the terrible things..... allegedly.....lol.

Its all about the words you use.... and just Blame it all on Bob.... he's a bad man. ;)

I was once sooo piseed that my mates took my keys off me. Prob is that I got hungry and told them that I was going to grab a bite to eat, so I got my keys back (why??????). I headed up the road and round the corner (wasn't going too far to grab a bite). WHen I stopped at a stop sign, heading on a main road, I must have been soooo pissed that I forgot to put my foot down? slow reaction time. By the time I started to put my foot down, the bike had already started leaning over and in my over-intoxicated state ( or that of said 'BOB') I had no energy to stop my pride and joy hitting the dirt!!!!!!!!!!!

Managed to lift the bastard up and by that time had lost all my appetite.... So decided to ride home, but don't think I got any higher than third gear for the 10 min ride home.... F**K I was wasted that night...... Haven't riddent that pissed since then.

Moral of the story kids.... If you wanna get pissed, get ready to sleep out!!!!!!!! hehehe

Yeah done this one 2[:I]

Probly one of the best fuck ups of mine is

I was riding my brand new gixer back in 94 feeling proud as punch and i start passing this dude in a 4x4 and he starts yelling out at me "shit bike mate thats a shit bike"

So we pull up at the next set of lights and im off the bike and over giving this guy an absolute fucking ear full about how much of a tool he is and how crap his car is and that his girl friend (whos sitting in the car)is the ugliest bitch ive seen and that id rather pull my cock than root her.

Any way this goes on till the light goes green and he hasnt said a word the whole time just looking at me with this blank look of confusion on his face.

Im thinking as hes driving off "cop that your carn"

I slowly walk back to my bike like im the man for putting this wanker in his place mount my bike and me and the girl ride off not a word spoken about the incident until we pull up at the next set of lights.

The girl leans forward and says to me "why did you do that"

I said "cause that tool said that i had a shit bike"

She starts laugh and said "He didnt say that he said"

"THATS A SICK BIKE MATE"

BABABAHAHAHAHAHAHAHBABABAHHAHAHA:D

I felt like a right tool.[:I]

A fair few years ago a mate and my self rode into Melbourne for a metal gig on our tuff 250's (ZZR & GPX) When we parked he managed to find the only bit of dirt and the center stand sunk, making the bike topple over to the left in front of a bus load of tourists. He cracks the shits, walks over to the other side, stand still down, lifts the bike in a fit of rage and it goes over on the other side. Fuck me. The people on the bus and myself just pointed and laughed our arses off.

came around a right hand turn in a quite street, kneed it down and then went for a clutchup when i thought the bike was straight( key phrase in that sentence is thought). pulled in clutch, revved it, front lifted up and rear wheel started wobbling. LOL didnt come off but my left knee was dragging on the ground

i've never done anything stupid on my bike - that's worth retelling - but I did lick an iron once to see if it was hot. I figured instead of licking my finger and tapping the iron I'd just "cut out the middle man".
Yupp the iron was on, I had the blistered tongue to prove it.

That Bob cunt, and his mate.. Guido... were late returning from lunch, to work. 100+ in a 60 zoned industrial area. PYEWWWW!!! past a cop car. Bob thought, well fuck waiting for THAT shit!! and proceeded to "grip it and rip it" as they say.

Bob over took a pensioner, leaving Guido for dead, presuming he'd get caught. braking so hard the back wheel was coming up (Bob hasnt been riding for long, and I'd suspect bob is a green rider at the best of times.) hammer down off the round about, doing cool moto gp type back wheel slidy motions. with out even thinking, like Bob was being possessed by the Angel of Awesomness. 100m up the road, into work car park. helmet off, Guido rocks up (thankfully, as a slow Guido would get Bob caught).

Bob and Guido's work mates smoking in the car park hear Bob and Guido coming in "hot" with sirens blaring for a minute or 2 and say "what the FUCK did you cunts just DO!!.
Bob and Guido and the audience hear "wooooopwooppw .............. silence" at the round about. Guido said to Bob "you could almost hear them go .. " FUCK!!" when they had no idea which of the 3 roads Bob and Guido went down.

Then Bob rode home and counted exactly 5 police cars on the way, one of which followed him , sitting right up his ass for about 2 k's before Bob slammed on the brakes and pulled over to give em a mouth full for tailgaiting. but they took off.

Bob rides alot more sensible now. so he doesnt have to "avoid" fines in the first place.

That bob is a naughty bloke. Here' another tale about Bob. Bob once dropped his son off to school on his SP1 and did a bit of a burnout after doing so. When Bob arrived home his wife was standing in the driveway really pissed saying that the principal had called. Bob's son did blame it on his "older brother" though, not his Dad

Not the stupidist thing but not the smartest either.

I keep reptiles and a good mate is a pretty well known reptile breeder. I was at his joint one arvo, he'd just got a few 'lil crocs in. I had no experience with crocs so he was running me through catching them etc. After a few catches I got cocky, looked away while my hand was in the tub and spent the next 10 mins prying the little fuckers jaws off my fingers.

Lucky it was only a little one.

Bob was once riding along one night around 11pm ish) with his old analogue mobile phone clipped to his clutch line on his bike. Bob got an sms from his Girlfriend, and decided since he was almost home he'd save some time and reply to it whilst riding.

Unbeknownst to Bob, the council had recently fitted a new roundabout on said road and the streetlights over said roundabout weren't yewt connected so it was in the dark still.

Well Bob being a touch distracted by his txt messaging sent the sms and looked up to discover he was going to be using the roundabout as a launch pad because Bob was also speeding at the time too!

Yep Bob crashed and had to call his mate to come take him to the Hospital...

Silly old Bob. He's never done the same thing again though!

In another silly incident Bob was riding his VTR1000F with some mates. They stopped at a set of Traffic lights and upon take off Bob decided to do a wheelie. So up in 1st, shift 2nd, change into 3rd nice balance point wheelie approaching 120km/hr and Bob's mate changed lanes without shoulder checking straight into Bob. Hmmm Not a very pretty outcome. Bob managed to avoid a prolonged stay in hospital this time, but still found his way there. Fortunately the damage to bikes was somehow minimal and he was able to ride his home again. (May have something to do with landing on his mate.

Bob stopped riding with that bloke from then on...

I won't blame BOB for this one, poor fella has copped a lot of blame round here :-)

I had a few bevvies one night, and before stepping out into town, was asked to shift the SV so my mate could use the carpark and the bike could go up on the porch. In a bit of a hurry and not thinking, jump on 'er and give it a bit of a rev and take off to go round the corner to re-park it. FUCKING DISK LOCK! process: launch-compress-rebound-stop-fuck-fall. nearly but the 'bar through another mates car door. Not cool. few sratches to the pegs, 'bars, elbow and ankle. looking back now it piss funny but at the time I was going to fucking stab someone for putting the disk lock on the bike (ME)
all good , got a disk lock with an alarm in it. can't even bump the bike without it going off. :-)

Fuck'n hell. Just catchn up with this thread. Almost fell off my chair laughn so hard. I had a mate...no really it wasn't me, that thought that it would be quicker to iron out a wrinkle on his work shirt while it was on. He had the perfect shape of the iron on his guts for weeks. Still give him shit about it.

I tryed to do that a few years ago, until my mum came running in a grabbed it off me.

I have a mate who has the nickname "Iron Arse". I thought it was because of his pose while wearing a G-String on a motorcycle for a Rugby Calendar. Alas no. His house mate hit him in the bum cheek with the iron because it was there. Well actually he pulled the towel off then hit him. He even has the little holes imprinted on his pearly white buttock.

Aren't mates just awesome???

Back in the day (tt250) riding commando in beach shorts was cool. Rode through a swarm of bees. Bees in shorts. Bike on side in grass on the side of road, pants down raking bees out of pubes.

Same bike getting towed by pillion with rope, me on a 10 speed 110 kph (wearing a helmet). Went through 2 stages of speed wobbles, worst part was slowing down.

Same mate who was towing me woke me up when I was blind drunk. He clearly wasn't thinking, put a cotton bud in my ear then hit it with his palm. Still hurts just thinking about it.

hittin a galah fully tapped on my 89 750 gixxer (about 240) the bird went just under the light into the forks and all the blood and green poo shit went through the oil cooler and all over my legs, even after a wash the bike smelt like shit every time i started it for weeks

looping out a seat stander wheelie on my CB 125 comin home from work in adelaide, slid on my guts and wore the front of my pants and button off, i just stopped as my pants got pulled down, another metre or so would have been VERY bad! at least the motorists got a good laugh out of it

I was sitting up at the tea house enjoying a nice cool Summers day when that fat useless Pig Stemmy out of Ferny Grove turned up. Walked along inspecting each and every bike looking for defects. Then proceeded to knock off about 10 guys for leaving their keys in the ignition. Apparently its a $220 offence in Qld if the keys are in the ignition and you're more than 3m from the bike. The hypocrisy of the situation was the fact his keys were in his bike. He didn't like it when I asked him if he was going to book himself. Then again my keys were on the table in front of me so I figured I was relatively safe. took him another 18months to finally get the pleasure of writing me an invitation to donate to the states coffers...

I once spent a few months on a 1000km2 cattle station in qld and we were on the kawasaki stockmans every day. I used to come off the bike every day too cos i would always be testing/pushing my limits. We always wore the acubra, no helmets.
Once I rode straight into a tree at 60kmh, copped some shit for that
Once I was doing 60kmh when i suddnly noticed a fence going across the road about 10m infront of me. Slid the bike out and I slid superman style grazing my hands to shit.
Another time we had been riding for about 20kms in a straight line along a suspension fence, checking the fence when I suddenly forgot it was there and turned straight into it. Kinda embarrasing but the fence was worse off than me.
Yet another time i rode straight over a rock the size of a basketball at about 80 kms. that was feckin scary but i did manage to stay up that time.

OK, I know I've told this before on some forum somewhere, funny anyway.
Many Years ago when the CB1100 racebike was my rallypig I lived in a block of units with a carport that backed onto my kitchen, it was my habit to pull in hard do a half arsed stoppie at the same time kill the engine, flick the side stand down, when the back came down I would let it come to rest on the stand and step of the bike in one movement.
However one day I flicked the kill switch back on and the engine kicked in and the old girl launched and I just managed to stop before going into a brick wall or the kitchen I think I killed some bottles of home brew though. I bet my eyes would have been like the Toecutters'at the end of Mad Max.

I thought it would save time to iron them on, so I plugged in the iron forgetting about the steam and stuck it on my leg. A jet of steam came out and burned my dick right bollock and leg. [B)]

There was no one home but me so I had to get on my RD 250 and get myself off to the hospital. :(

It was fuckin agony riding as my leg and dick kept hitting the petrol tank every time I touched the front break. [V]

Some more stupid shit, getting a pillion off a mate it250 yammy. Kicking new plastic floppy road marker posts. Found where the council stopped installing the new ones and left the old wooden ones. Drunk, shorts, no gloves.

Climbing off the back of mates xt250 (pillion) onto some chicks dads ute, to try and impress her of course. Chick freaks out, hits brakes, I hit the back window with face.

Borrowed a customers yz490, took to nearest discrete spot. Dropped into a huge puddle while on full revs.

Ahh the 80's
All the bad things happen on yamahas for me. mind you I haven't ridden many kwaka's or hondas.....

Most of the really stupid stuff I've done has turned out fine, so I don't really class it as such, mainly just awesome.

Worst one was probably riding a DT200, out bush with Dad, Unkle, and a few other boys. First real ride with dad... Going a bit quick on a fire road for my (lack of) skill, hit a rock, off into the long grass. No worries, back onto the road we go, just have to wheelie up this 3ft vertical ledge. Turns out DT200's don't power wheelie in 3rd. They just accelerate. Bad.

Epic display of cartwheeling according to the old man. Bucked the front wheel so bad it wouldn't turn through the forks. Next 1.5 days of riding was... interesting.

I didn't go riding with dad after that.

He did the same thing to his old man. Grandad would just wait for the cops/ambos to call when the 2/3 brothers went out riding... 1st ride with the old man, out the driveway, down their home street. Dad goes flying past standing on the seat doing a Christ pose or something. Hits a rock one of the boys threw on the road earler, eats shit with his leg in the rear wheel. No more rides either.
