Part of me likes it, while another part of me is scratching my head and wondering why? ;D
I was feeling sorry for myself because I couldn't afford new bike boots, until I met a man with no legs.

So I said, "Hey mate, you haven't got any bike boots you don't need, do you?"

I keep thinking that the rider will plow into the ground if he hits the brakes hard enough.

Meh, it's a Guzzi, it'll still handle like it's on rails. 

( They do seem to want to steer funny when they get near shop that sells medium priced red wine though - straight for the front door usually - possibly just an Australian thing though )

^^^^it looks as though the aborter was sooooo proud of his work he entered it in a bike show.  I envy him as one of my goals in life is to take fine handling motorsickles and turn them into foul handling machines.

Yep, when all he had to do was let all the air out of his tires, for the same effect! ;D
