same **** happen to me a few months ago, **** wasn't funny then. Yea I pulled the newb rearbrake stereotype. live and learn

 

At least when I did it I was going in a straight line.

 

Judging by the skidmark it looks like he was going in a straight line for awhile too.

 

Hahahahah

Only difference is I managed to stop without falling.

 

Someone thought he was on a motard...

 

classic

 

hahaha lol..oh man. i feel bad for the guy, hes not wearing a jacket. oh well, funny as hell.

 

seems as though he had pretty good form in the first picture but overly wide handle bars made have contributed to him tank slapping and ultimately the spill. while leveraqe is good (wider = leverage) to much can cause an imbalance inhandling and is slower to react to input. One additional aspect is that range of movement is very limited, causing more of the body to have to be used.

 

aww, is it just me or when he falls is he going like 3 mph? At anyrate i've learned not to catch mysefl with my hands I was just out riding my bicycle the other night and it fell over did a nice old chest plant

 

haha damn what an idiot!

Yeah, god, that guy made a mistake, I can't believe he's so stupid.

 

the more i watch this, the more it hurts to look at.

 

Going down without a full face FTL.

 

Is it popular in the cruiser world to use the rear as the usual brake. I read somewhere that many accidents were from rear brake use. I know most sportbikers don't even use their rear, so i'm guessing a lot of cruisers use the rear dominantly.

 

lol ...good thing i have no rear brake ha ha

 

ouchie wrists.

 

HAHAHAH T

The dynamics are different on a cruiser because more of the riders weight is over the back tire. It's easier to lock up the rear on a sportbike and as a result most sportbikers don't use them.

 

Not really all that different....when you hit the brakes it puts the weight to the front of the bike, and when that happens, there is less wieght over the rear, which can help it to lock up....same thing that happens on a sport bike.

 

If you hit more rear than front (or only rear) it will not shift the weight to the front nearly as much. Regardless, there is more weight proportionally over the rear on a cruiser than on a sportbike.

 

looks like he was braking while turning too...Opps.
