The closest I've come to these was when I took my old CB650 beater to a new years day biker get together.  It was about 25 degrees out.  I was the only one that showed up on a bike!

Interesting list.
But you forgot carrying a soda fountain drink from (insert favourite convience store) to home.
without spilling anything.

The 3 people on a bike is interesting... not sure if me, a 3 year old and a 6 year old counts.... mabey 2 1/4 people? 

Driving through a building is fun though.

[dustyc]

Doing the nasty on mine is on my list. (Not with 3 people though.)

[gerhed]

Got hit by a bird once.
What's in those things anyway ?--it's not normal !

[dusterdude]

bumped off a passenger but not on a sohc 4.

[333]

Ridden off road
Did a wheelie - yes, on a SOCH4!!!
Same as above but wearing a tux (Does a clown suit count?)
Ran out of gas - who hasn't
Had a flat tire out on the road - again, who hasn't
Had your bike stolen
Hit a dog, cat, snake, cow, moose, bear, or bird. - squirrel (they sure are stoopid)
Ridden into a bar or through a building

Gone thru a tunnel & not blown your horn - That's easy.  Going through a tunnel and not dropping down 2 gears just to hear the engine howl? Impossible!

Been chased by the cops & got away
Make your bike backfire just to see something JUMP - Done these 2 in a car, but that's a whole 'nuther story!

Well so far it lookd like I want to go riding with Andy 750 ,Seaweb and a few others.. & Keithert..I like the fact that you like to ride even if it is cold out..

And clown suit counts same as a Tux.(as long as its rented & carefully put back in the box) ..Then you get the phone call Long serious sentence explaining your liabilty as a rentor & ending in the threat of a lawsuit. Extra points if you managed to pull off this stunt and the biggest most popular bike dealer in town happens to be watching The burnout wasnt the problem it was getting stopped by the end of the parkinglot and a bit of sand... and the dealer called me SWINGER for at least a year after that...

a few more..

Rode , on a trip, with a family member or friend that had a bike so small or slow that you realize you never rode your bike THAT SLOW ever before

Rode your bike to a party when it was 10 deg F or colder

Left your bike over a thousand miles from home, cuz you flew back.. after they let you out of the hospital.

Had an ambulance ride with your best buddy & BOTH needed to be in the ambulace!

Clipped a 150 lb black labs nose at night & turned around to see buddy go down cuz he nailed it full on..


I think others could add a few to the list...

[dusterdude]

andy,seems like your tires dont like you.

[andy750]

Your not wrong Duster! I envy these guys who have never had a puncture.....I seem to attract them....

Here are a few more....

Getting a front tire puncture on I-59, (Miss) at 10pm at night and having to flag down a random vehicle and having the tow-truck driver (and harley rider) offer to personally help me. Later on when sitting in the bar with his son I learnt I was in Klan country.

3 yrs later getting a rear tire puncture 5 miles from the same spot as above!!!

Riding the mountain section of the Isle of Man TT at +110mph

Getting a rear tire puncture at the TT, Isle of Man and carrying my wheel 20 miles to a car shop to get it fixed

Riding over Iron Road pass/Needles highway South Dakota in the snow 

Riding at 45 degrees into the wind in the tail end of a tropical storm approaching Oklahoma City

Riding across the Plains of Tuanepec, famed for its sideways wind

Riding 120 miles on the Worst Road in Mexico - took around 7hrs and was like riding over a dried up river bed. And didnt see another car all day and finished the day by camping at a gas station that had an armed guard  The next day getting robbed in St Cristobel de la Casa, Chiapas, Mexico

Picking up 2 girls at a roadside cafe in Mexico who invited me to stay the night with them (see last post about giving one a ride  )....which meant riding the CB750 up a 10 inch curb to park it in the narrow entrance of their building as it wasnt safe parked on the street....people had to squeeze by it 

Riding 500 miles back home at 50 mph on the highway with a dodgy condensor 

Hitting a pigeon with my knee that wasnt quite fast enough...ouch 

Cheers
Andy

[tramp]

i did 14 of those
guess my life is kinda boring
how about being run off the road on purpose going down and sliding under a fence?

[UnCrash]

Rode for 3 years in Philly with a cardboard plate and no license.

Rode for 30 minutes home from work without headlight (blown bulb) with a cardboard plate and no license on I95.

Had a wiring harness meltdown on the highway in rush hour traffic and pushed the 750 3 miles home.

Ran out of gas (and then I turned the petcock ON).

Left the choke on and couldn't figure out why my bike was running so crappily.

Was chased down by a very large monkey on a Yamaha 150 with my wife on the back in Goa India.  The monkey passed us...  If I was on my Cb750 his ass woulda been mine.

[754]

Man those stories are funny..

So I did pull a log and get firewood.. that makes 2 750 skidders

And the kitchen sink..somewhere I have a pic of a Buddy on a 754 and yes he was packing a kitchen sink , think that makes 2

 Keep them coming I will add a few more soon..

Will add one right now,

Ever gone around a corner at what most consider a very respectable speed?? while a buddy is seated on the back holding an entire rear wheel off a bike cuz you had no air commpressor?? Kawi 500 wheel in this case.

or get ticketed by the cops in the Rogers Pass for doing 90 mph through the snowsheds (speed limit 30 & it is very dark in there!)

[Head]

What is totaled off an sohc??   head

[754]

Up here totalled or written off means they will not pay to repair the bike, but they pay to replace it.. but in some cases they will sell it back to you cheap, as part of the payout

[78CB750CAFE]

how's this one:

surrendered your bike to a Utah state trooper when he realizes that not only were you doing 95mph on "his" road, but your plate is fugazi, and you have neither a license, insurance or a title for the bike while riding from SF bay area to Colorado carrying 4 sheets of blotter acid.

that was a fun day...
