Besides, if you lean off on public roads, you might have huge chicken strips, even though you're 30 mph over the speed limit everywhere. The more you lean, the less the bike has to. On a cruiser (no leaning off) 1/4 inch is essentially no chicken strip at all, and very impressive. My son's vulcan has strips 1/2 inch wide, and he scrapes pegs. Not from weight, either, he weighs 125. That's one of the reasons he got the Hurricane.
Ride safe...God bless!

my friend's 929RR has 1/4" chicken strips.... on the front tire. None on the back. 1/4" on a cruiser is damn impressive.

The MG-42 on that bike is a nice touch too. Airborne with a sidecar. That is definately ballsy.

The part of a motorcycle tire that has not seen any pavement. In other words, the sides of a tire you need to lean the bike waaaaay over in order to rub the "chicken strip" off of.

I think until I get this motorcycle thing better under wing I'll be the chicken and leave those alone.

Dead on.

Almost as good as the duffman from last year. "Duff man can't die, only the actors that play duffman" "duffman can't breathe, OH NO!"
