yeah, like Brandon said, no reason to be dicks about it. We used to have a neighbor who would come home from a late night shift at about 2am, and cut his engine and coast into the neighborhood, cause his bike was real loud. A lot of people dont think about it.
American Choppers is awesome!! I think that is incredible what they do with their skills.
As for taking down a bike, as long as you have the proper gear on, you've got a good chance of surviving, and if you dont do stupid stuff.
