Failed test ride ! (not me)
06/08/13 2:54 PM

OMG !! I can't beleive one person did all this damage before even taking off !!!

you cross a 19 year old kid that shows up at Power Yamaha in Sublimity 45 minutes before they close, wanting to test ride a 650 Ninja?

From what I gathered, he pop'd the clutch, which resulted in this:

This reminds me when I was teaching my mom to ride ten years ago, she took off fine then suddenly she sped up and crashed the Sherpa head on hard into the side of the machine shed! Had she not hit right where there was a stud I think she would have gone right through the steel. I still laugh about it when I think back on that event. I didn't think she would ever try to ride again but she got right back on the damn thing and later got her mc license with me that summer.

But at least your Mom took off ! this guy didnt even take off yet ! Guess I'm lucky, I was 13 when I rode my first street bike, my brother put me on the front of his honda CB (while he was on the back) rode down to the first open straight line road, and proceeded to do about 60 mph, he had to tell me to slow down !!

Sure makes me glad we have dual controls and can override the students in the pilot training business.

I'm retired from active duty/flying and now just teach pilot training in the simulators/classroom. No dual controls - we can just let them crash if need be, then debrief it and reset them. Definitely need the 14R with this job!!

New tires are coated with a wax, to keep them looking polished in the show room. You have to be really ginger with them when you are riding new tires. At least while the wax coating wears off. This lad learned this the hard way!
