Is the local dealer doing a discount if you do a burnout?

I've never done a burnout anywhere except the bleach box at the the dragstrip, and that was only in cars.

Nothing against them, though.

I'm looking at those pics and it looks like your group has a few miles to ride home in the mountains ...on those tires after the burnouts? !!??

Nutsnbolt......check out these guys...They live up my neck of the woods. http://sickshooter.com/index1.htm

I had to make my own brackets for them but you get the idea.

Slaughter.....I actually did another burnout for a small boy watching us go through town, we stopped at a light and I fired up the tires again. That is when I pretty much killed it. rode another 100 miles or so to finish the run.

Umm..Err..I had the bike in the back of the truck for me ride home....

Call me what ever you want but I seriously don't know why people waist their tires on a burn out.

Last guy I know who did that rode his burnt out belt showing tire to lakeland and got stuck on the side of the road for a few hours.

If the tire is going to be replaced shortly why not have some fun?
I hate mostly spent rubber and consider using it up the "safe" thing to do- right guys? ;)

When you do a burnout, don't you get a lot of rubber and debris on the underside of the tail, etc.? It looks like a fun way to say goodbye to some used up tires.

Wait till it cools down and it brushes right off. Most of the rubber goes out the back onto the road surface.

Just do it !

hell yeah burn outs are fun. I think this is a common way for XB owners to get rid of those crappy stock D208s. Some people like burn outs some don't. You say Tom-o-to I say Tom-a-to. I say burn those bitches!

Yep, only way to see off a well served hoop. After making a tyre changer, every tyre we could find outta my mates garage went up in smoke. Needless to say some of his neighbours were a little more amused than others.

See - burnouts are actually a safety feature. They prevent a squid from buying your used tire in an attempt to save some money by getting a tire for $10 and riding it for a week.

Burn it down to the cord and that way you're doing a service to society by ensuring that nobody in the future can use that used tire!

honestly, i couldn't see nuthin with my helmet on. it was over 100, no wind, and i was barely moving doing really slow rolling burnouts and nuts. i was sweating so bad it was running in my eyes, lol.

normally i do have my stuff on, but hey, i am my own caretaker so no one else is to blame if i get alittle more banged up than i already am!

and no, i'm not going to do rolling burnouts on the bottle!!!
