Behold this man modelling the latest in Harley riding apparel: genuine HD helmet, T-shirt, fingerless gloves and boots.

All that HD "lifestyle" gear doesn't seem to have done him a whole lot of good. Maybe Harley should start promoting real gear and ATGATT, instead of trying to sell more do-rags and T-shirts. Also, chrome is no substitute for cornering clearance - perhaps Harley should actually test their accessories on roads that have curves?

I haven’t laughed that hard since Southpark’s satire of facebook!

LOL! Notice the rider locked up the front wheel as he was attempting to steer.

Oh, that is bad. The look on his face when he realizes everything is about to go sour.

That was a really expensive screw-up. My Roadliner requires some care as it also has limited clearance. The Versys has more clearance than I will ever use on a public road. The XR1200 will handle up to a 40 degree lean angle. That's still well beyond what most people will do on a public road. Naked street bikes are some of the most functional, safe configurations that I've had the pleasure to ride down the road.

Looks like in frame 2 he locked up the front. Maybe Harley should give advanced riding lessons as well.

Dude! Why did you stop there? Where’s the rest of the sequence? Hehehehehehehe....

Question: How/why was the camera so perfectly placed at the right spot at the right time to get such a sequence?

And why is his left hand off the grip in the first photo? Weird.
