What's the biggest buzz you've had on a bike?

Passing your test? Getting your knee down for first time?

It'd be great if some of you could let me know *(along with your name, age, what you ride and where you live) for a wee feature I;m doing.)

Thanks guys!

i have many that are equal in buzzness, geting right knee down, getting left knee down was pretty huge as i dont it in a strange place with the chelmsford crew behind me, learning how to wheelie is a pretty cool buzz, pulling a huge rolling endo to not hit rob stu and jon gave me a buzz too, but then also ****ing over any car that tries to race you

My Biggest Buzz on a Bike was picking up my very first Bike in June! After passing my DAS Course, I decided to go for an entry level Bike (Honda CB500S) having not ridden before. So found a real peach of a bike 1 Owner hardly any miles. Took it for a ‘slightly jerky’ test ride, felt great. So then I picked it up and borrowed my mates 2 Piece Leathers and Helmet, all of which were too big for me…But the ride home to Witham from Billericy was amazing, opening it up down the A12 and getting nods from fellow bikers, when I arrived home I was buzzing with so much adrenaline, I had to go back out for a good few more Hours! Love It!

everytime i have a close call its a buzz :D which is quite worrying, but the BIGGEST buzz was overtaking a Skip with slightly too little time which was the scariest thing in the world, but a buzz a few seconds afterwards!

and having to jump on the anchors so as not to hit rideordie and gsxrdude on my first ride with them :oops:

[Lateshift]

Biggest buzz i got when i first "red-lined" my Gixxer 750 :D

A303 down the hill coming from the Thruxton direction on my way into Bulford, flat out, nothing at all on the road and a really nice bit of tarmac that stretches straight for about 10 miles :D

Bit scarey when i went through the "quantum leap" at 150 :D especially as it all went quiet, and then when i summoned the bottle to look down again the needle wasnt moving anymore :D

Never again, its far too fast and life is too short as it is ;)


Okay maybe once or twice more then for good measure :)

[nori1000]

seeing if,my then new gsxr1000 realy would do 100mph in 1st,which it did then carrying on till it hit the limiter in 3rd and looking down at the speedo to see it reading 155,then thinking maybe a 1000 is a little bit 2 much 4 the road,oh well :lol:

[Tark]

I have to say when I am racing. When I brake that late i think I am never going to get round, the bike is all over the place and the back wheel is in the air. Your running out of track and you have to chuck it in. then as you make it round you think YEAH!!!! I am the god!






Then someone outbreaks you! :roll:

Left and right knee down, as i'm about come off in an accident, doing something a lil stupid and knowing it was close, Riding the CG and hoping it wouldn't break down :lol:

biking is just buzz after buzz after buzz .. some that spring to mind

i remember after passing my DAS in the morning, in the afternoon taking a zx6r f3 out for a test ride and going far to quickly towards a roundabout and just making it round
the next day i brought the bike

the sound of the yoshi on the F3

crashing said bike numerous times until the frame cracked

getting a new bike to replace broken bike

my first kneedown.. and the 2nd and the 3rd... i think you get the picture

the smell of melted slider where the titanium has got far too hot
the smell of leather sliders

gykd on a straight piece of dual carriageway

finding out 102 mph is as fastest as you can wheelie a zx6r in 2nd
(closed private roads of course)

crusing pass a ktm superduke on the A12 on the back wheel after he just couldn't carry the front wheel anymore (this was at a legal speed)

the chaos caused by 40 odd bikes in picadilly circus, waiting at the lights.. one bike starts a burn out... another joins in...and another... looking back down the street and not being able to see anything but a wall of white smoke and then proceeding to head through soho stopping all the traffic

the speed camera by chessington world of adventure flashing like a strobe light as 40 bikes headed out of london (thankfully it was facing us)

heading down to brighton after a night out with 40 odd bikes..
via the A23 following someone who did the route everyday...it would of been silly quick in the daytime..never mind night

buy a damage repairable non running bike, the first time it fired up (opps I forgot the exhaust)

beating a bigger bike on every corner, just to have him take me on the straight (trackdays)

morphine / gas and air, after buggering up a left hander

having the bearing in the crush drive/ sprocket carrier fail at illegal motorway speeds and having to replace the swingarm

my 1st tank slapper, 2nd, 3rd.. then i changed the tyres and it started to behave

going into a fast, tight corner and missing a gear and hitting neutral

i could go on but i sure i've bored everyone enough
;)

[gixer400]

my biggest buzz was when i first got my right knee down.. i was trying for a while and when i was about to give up it scraped just a little bit. i was so happy since then ive loved most roundabouts ive come across.

also the first time i crashed was a great buzz. that was quite exiting, sliding on your arse at high speed is great. just try not to do it too much

my name etc is: chris uney, 19, (i havent got a bike to ride at the mo, but im fixing a cbr400), chelmsford

break lights u tit!!!

[SonOfABiker]

Well, probably doesnt account for much, but i must say, the switch from 50cc to 125 (i know, not huge ..) was a buzz, getting to overtake traffic for once is great..and the sound of something OTHER then a hairdryer at full rev is top class...

having an accident (which i HAVE done already) is a huge buzz, albeit scary whilst its going on...and then laughing afterwards because your still alive, well...what else can i say..

A few buzzes that I can think of are not necessarily on the correct side of the law........

........so for reasons of legality.......

....one of the biggest buzzes has got to be when you feel "at-one" with the bike......when it all goes right, when you move round the bike on the balls of your feet and you don't notice a jerky weight transfer in the bars, when you just find yourself silky-smooth round bend after bend, between traffic and around traffic in a slow breathing, cool, calm world of "slick-as-whale-****-on-an-iceberg" style smooooothness...........

Loads of buzz moments but the best 1 so far was when i proved that a well ridden 400 is quicker round the bends than an averagely ridden GSXR600... muhaha, what a buz that was..

[Robocobb]

Bike moments that give me a buzz.

Getting back on a new triumph for the first time after the previous one tried to kill you, and suddenly realising that you did ride the other one like a twat and deserved to come off eventually. (Even after only 170 miles)

The new sense of respect for every corner, white van and lump of tractor mud that keeps you upright and makes you one of those sensible riders :shock:

Getting back that original wickedness, yearning for that next vanishing point and scaring the crap out of car drivers on the way to work with a british bulldog sporting the sexiest sounding pipe ever :twisted:

the bigest thrill will be to over take my bro but that wont happent so biking on the road will always have an aim for me but i good one was geting the bike all the way through first and second gear on the back wheel

[cyberninja]

mmm! i guess the biggest buzz for me so far was plucking up the courage to see what I could get out of my tzr125, I got 95 out of it on the A130 it was a an adrenalin rush for me even though i was half ****ting myself too lol . it was only about 10 seconds as I am still getting used to the bike as I used to ride a Hongdou 4-stroke custom copy. with the hd-125 I was lucky to get 55 out of it on a good day ( had nothing but trouble since i had got it).

hell of a difference but i am taking it easy ab it till i get some new tyres on the teezer as they really need replacing heh

When I was about 14 i was round a friends house sitting watching his older brother working on his bike in the garden.His bro asked me if i would mind giving him a hand.I said "ok" :? He then asked me if i could hold on to the end of the spark plug while he'd try to start the bike :evil: :evil: :evil: That was quite a good buzz :lol:
Or Last year at donington bsb,the club i belong to had a stand in suzuki village and they had my bike on show,as well as others.I loved it.Loads of people looking round my bike....or when i pulled my first wheelie........
I could go on for ages.I haven't really got one that sticks out more than the rest....Cheers

[Gazdaman]

Biggest buzz.

'yes, it passed the MOT, another year's riding for me'. But seriously, the biggest buzz is easily taking the burnham bends flat out, left knee scrape, right knee scrape, gixxer in the hedge etc. The usual.

My biggest buzz
by Fasterthanu (rob)

The Autum sun was setting, although one wouldnt notice the difference if it were up or down due to the archetypal mass of cloud obscuring its gaze. The day had been a wet one and the winds had matched the rains passion for its work resulting in the occasional patch of deadly foliage residing on the apex of many of my favourite bends. Despite the unfortunate conditions i decided to venture out to chelmsford. Luck was on my side and the weather paused almost as if it were taking a deep breath before the next onslaught. I kitted up and started my NC 30 which is now in the possesion of my dearest brother Herbet (Drew). i set out on the slippery black surface of which i have come to love and depend, as soon as i crossed my imaginary start finish line on my favourite stretch i noticed a Lancia Delta integrali EVO up ahead so i layed on the power and caught up with the beast, like a squid and a whale we battled in the water this battle was more important than who stole whos plankton this was pride! this is were i learned to power slide my beloved machine coming out of a right hander hard on the gas after i had passed the eventual loser, the bike stepped out at the rear end it felt as though it wanted out of this dangerous game but i lent forward and pulled it back in line and begged it to help me with this battle and it did!!!! that was my greatest buzz. (so far)

well to be honest it did make me **** my pants

[Luke]

Overtaking a car on my scooter, just as the oncoming car indicates right and pulls into the middle of the road. I wouldn't had been able to break in time, nor did I have the power to get past that quickly. I tucked in, sat against the car I was overtaking and smacked my elbow on the other car at a combined speed of 70mph... Broke it in 3 places. But wow, I carried on riding as I didn't know what to do and the car I overtook chased me and I managed to get away.

[becky]

[Gazdaman]

Count me in for showing me how to ride the bends :roll:

This XJ600 stays on the road where the 2000 gsx-r SRAD has a crashbung/road interface.

We must do that again sometime actually, that route we attempted with Speedgirl before the key losing incident. That was awesome.

That sounds more like my daily commute up the A13 and the A2 to be honest :D

Although 107 sounds a tad tame to be honest for filtering ;) :D

[becky]

lateshift it was my first time for filtering at that speed.........it was cool.......when i get the restricters out il try harder, im always up for a challenge x

ye the burnham bends we should organise a trip out x
