Nothing happened but there is a speed bump next to my house, the large, wide, sloping kind. I'm going fifteen miles per hour in fourth gear in my '99 Jetta 2.0 and as soon as I hit this hump the car goes completely side-ways. (Did I mention that it's sleeting today?) Now this drives home the point of getting a beginner bike, I have a great amount a car driving experience for a 17 year-old; I've driven a '06 GTO in the snow, drifted an Evo VIII down an exit ramp and even have driven a Hennessey Venom 800TT. (Basicaly a Twin-Turbo'd dodge Viper with 833 Horses) I've done more but you get my point: It was reflex how I reacted. I simply eased of the gas and counter-steered the appropriate amount (no plowing from me thanks). Again all reflex, any situation on a bike that would have required a prompt controlled reaction I couldn't of done: I simply don't have enough experience riding bikes.
I have a Year and a half or so of driving under my belt. Not a lot, but better than zero. Bikes? I've driven a '99 Suzuki Hayabusa Ten miles.
sounds like you were affected by the intoxication of sniffing your fingers after scratching around your arsehole for to long, while wrtiitng this
