Retuned from work this afternoon on a major hiway near here running 65 MPH when I heard this screeming sound coming around me.It was a zoomsplat with a girl hanging on and her behind hanging over the fender. She was wearing shorts,sandals. They passed me like I was sitting still,mabe doin 90 mph.

Was the screaming from the cycle or the girl?
The guy must not care that much about her to treat her so poorly.

It's a shame anybody would do that but you know young an bullet proof. I hope they don't get hurt or worse.

Zoomsplat? :D

These forums are so funny. Zoomsplat. Cracks me up.

I love crotch rockets. I'd have one except for the fact that my back just does not want to be in that sort of riding position. My son is a zoomsplat rider. I have shots of him coming around a curve on a race track, left knee pointed out and dragging. Wow. Amazing that they come right back up out of the turns. However, I do think that young man should take his girlfriend home. You all are right, he obviously does not care about her.

Your son riding his rocket like that on the race track is good, right time and place and all . I cringe when they fly by me on the interstate 90 to nothing weaving thru traffic like they are parked cars and wearing nothing in the line of protective gear other than that full face helmet. The resulting looks I receive from cages in the same area? I can tell in their mind they are lumping me in the same mold as that young punk trying to kill himself, regardless of the machine I am riding nor the gear I am wearing.:X

Yea I've lectured my son on the aspect of riding with common sense on the street. However, I was young and reckless once as well (still am) and I can't say I never did anything crazy. I would hope my son would at least try to be within legal speed limits and attempt to keep the front tire on the ground. I know he likes to gear up when he rides including full face helmet, which is more than I do.
