And dangerous too! Once, many moons ago, in a far away place, my buds and I were having a "jump" contest with an almost brand new Yamama dirt bike we had at the wrecking yard where I worked at the time. We were messin around to see who could jump the farthest. There was a large dirt pile/ramp in the back of the yard for loading trucks, and we were using that as a ramp. Long story short...I won the contest....just not on the bike. :blush:
I wound that little sucker up and hit the ramp as fast as I could..a little side-a-ways. I went one way, the bike went another. Final measurement had me landing waaaaay farther than the bike, or anyone else. I won a knot on me head, and a gouge in my arm. Dint matter, we was all laffin so hard, it dint even hert! :smilie_happy: :smilie_happy: :mrgreen: :smilie_happy:
That was the last dirt spitter I ever rode.
Even more funny, was this was a bike I had picked up on a Sheriff's dept call, as it was stolen. We had that thing for prolly 6 months, and then a finance company called wanting to know if we had it. They came to get it, paid for the tow and storage, and when I brought it around, the guy was shocked to see the condition it was in. We told him that's the way it was when we picked it up..... :whistling: :whistling:
