The plug or not thing is covered so...

I watched a guy in a Myrtle Bike week burnout pit smoke his tire thru 5 gears all the way to engine failure resulting in the oil on the outside.

Does being extremely amused by that make me a bad bad person?   :wink:

No, but telling everyone you enjoyed it might.   :hyst:

Well it was worthy of comment. Little hottie facing him laid back on the tank while he was pinning the throttle with one hand,  drinking a beer with the other, and speed shifting.

It's all fun and games till some loses a connecting rod.

At that point it is still fun, as long as it is someone else's connecting rod!

I find it extremely enjoyable to see someone being stupid and abusing their motorcycle, or even a car, and destroying the engine or tranny. Their reaction is priceless when they hold the throttle to redline, parts fail, oil sprays all over, and they realize how stupid they are, but a little too late!
I am an adult?? When did that happen, and how do I make it stop?!

On my Death bed I don't want to say "I wish I had done that burn out".  No one will say "I wish I didn't do that burn out"!  There are few and far between simple pleasures in life.  Live them if you see fit to do so.  Even if you blow something up, you'll be talking about how cool it was even though it was costly for years to come. 
If you have to stop and think about if it is right or wrong, Assume it is wrong.

What someone does with "their" bike is not my business. I may shake my head, but I'm usually smiling at the same time.

Actually I have only done 2 in 44 years of ridding.  Each one was memorable.  I'll cook this one but not to the extent of causing damage elsewhere.
