I have never understood why anyone in his right mind would trash his Harley bagger like this?

YouTube - Bagger burnout custom harley wild and fun smoke filled

Forget the damage you are doing to your tire, but do you know what else you are doing to the clutch, driveline, rear belt, wheel bearings and brakes of you Harley bagger? I sometimes see stuff like this in a bagger magazine - not American Iron Magazine - and wonder why?

Just a guy with a lot of money and not afraid to spend it.

And to prove what? If you hold the front brake or put the front wheel against an immovable object you can smoke the tire with a big V Twin or a little single cylinder import.

Maybe too much happy smoke in the 60"s

I didn't think a burnout 'qualified' unless you got into 4th or 5th gear. That's where the real damage comes from, shifting gears in a burnout. Anybody ever watch some idiot lunch his tranny doing burnouts at the Broken Spoke or other places? This kid in the video....... well, I'm not impressed. Of course, burnouts don't impress me anyway.......

I bet this guy is one of them that is always posting on bike forums putting down his bike because it is always breaking down and needing expensive repair work. I see idiots like this at the local bike nights and they never impress anyone but the kids in the parking lot. One guy was bragging about how he burned out his tire by doing a burnout until it went bang and blew the tire. Stupid.

At least pick your feet up if you're trying to impress the peanut gallery.

Ace- You hit it. That was my first thought. Dude still has his feet down....
