I'm honestly not entirely sure about what is happening in this video. It seems like a bunch of people are doing a parade of sorts on their rides, but that is really beside the point.
This clip captures the moment that one of the riders — yes, of a Harley-Davidson motorcycle! — takes a tumble. He gets back up rather quickly, and overall he and the customized Night Rod Special seem to be okay.
Still, this shirtless fellow seems to be treated awfully well for holding up everyone else!




Everyone gathers around immediately, as though they worship him. One little boy is given the honor of putting the kickstand up on the bike. The “cool” shirtless guy puts on a fanny pack.
The annoyance can be seen in all the other riders who are simply watching him take his time while they stop and wait. It doesn’t seem to bother him.
Despite the oddness of this video, it is definitely interesting to watch. Maybe good to study about how not to fall over when riding your bike in a group. Oh well. And yes, apparently all “cool guys” wear fanny packs, or so it seems!
So check out the video and see what happens for yourself!

One thing sure!
Looking at the guy I don't think I would make fun of him to his face either?

He came in hot, Then realize he's about to overtake the bike in front , And hit/locked the rear brake.... Then Ouch'''
 
Well holding his helmet in his left hand didn't do much for his ability to control the bike. Looks like he got on it and out rode his skill level. He must be so proud. Trying to show off and making a fool out of himself. Did you notice that the seat fell off?
 
Notice that he also was not wearing gloves. Even cool fingerless gloves would of helped his hand being scraped.

weird thing isn't it? I didn't see any other signs of road rash?:Shrug:
Jeans weren't even scuffed, What's up with that?
 
...And he left the kid hanging twice just wanting a fist bump. Finally did it 3rd time. Apparently, he was their hero. Gives clowns a bad name.

:Agree: The asshat was showing off then realized he was getting close, so he jumped from the frying pan into the fire. You can see when he grabbed a handful of front break when the front end started to compress.
 
I don't know where this happened, it wasn't in the USA, but if it had happened at Daytona or Sturgis, I'm afraid Mr Tanned Abbs would have been treated a bit differently.
 
Mr. Cool is not too experienced it appears. At least not experienced enough to know a locked front tire makes the bike go down faster than a rookie will realize.

He was too busy showing off to remember not to grab the front brakes...
 
i guess it worked for him at least that day. Next time though he may not be so lucky
