I'm gonna get a motorcycle with the intention of eventually becoming a racer. Mom and dad are freaking out.

Marcus Aurelius said a man should not fear death, but rather the prospect of never truly living life, because one is inevitable and the other is something we can control.

I want to eventually race super fast and expensive motorcycles once I'm competent enough for it.



The most deadly racetrack in the world. I want to race on a track like that.

Good luck, you will need it.

The freedom of two wheels is exhilarating.

Have someone drive you in their car at 50 miles per hour than open the door and jump out...that is your training for today.....

Instead buy a Harley and cruise....no need for speed....

You are unlikely to ever become a professional racer if you weren't raised on bikes. Regardless, good luck and try not to kill yourself.

It takes a lot of practice to be able to stay up using your knee.
I did it a few times on my YZF but i have been riding 2 wheels since i was 10.

When i got my Harley, I sold my rocket.
I do miss it though. Harleys cant compare to the fun you can have on a rocket, speed wise.
Thought about buying me a cheap one, just to get my curve hugging out of my system lol

There are two types of riders, those who have been in an accident,
and those who are going to be in an accident.

I think half of it is just having the nerve to put yourself in that situation. I am a good learner. I'll definitely be able to master a motorcycle.

I grew up on a Kawasaki 500 but eventually found friends with big bikes...so I bought a road king....I like the comfort...

Take a rider course. Then take the intermediate course. That should tell you whether hard core riding is in your future or not.

I use to have a soft tail slim flat black and loud as hell...beautiful bike that turned heads where ever I went but the road king fits me better...

Why do you think the riders in that video do what they do?

I'm in no way trying to discourage you, but I'll tell you a story. Back when I first learned how to ride, I took a class to get my license, and the instructor said "there are two types of riders; those who have had a crash, and those who will." I thought it was bullshit at the time, and I rode for years after that with no crashes (some close calls, though).

Then, in 2014, I got hit by a car from behind while I was stopped to make a left turn. The gal who hit me at 55 mph was texting and never even hit the brakes. I got a helicopter ride to the trauma center and a broken back, concussion, shredded elbow, and four broken ribs. My helmet and a bystander who put a tourniquet on my arm saved my life.

Do your dream, but be realistic about the risks.

It seems to me like street motorcycles are just too dangerous for my taste these days. On the road there's just too many elderly people who can barely see anymore and inexperienced teen drivers who don't even bother to look before they pull out in front of you.

I'd rather be crazy than boring.

No one makes youtube videos of former motorcycle daredevils in wheel chairs or the morgue.
