So where in the title "Seems a bit excessive..." did OP infer they took the picture?

[–]Ghstfce -1 points0 points ago

Then why say "You didn't take this picture as it has been on the net for awhile"?

[–]jimmyjam12 1 point2 points ago

/facepalm

[–]all_knowing_fish 1 point2 points ago

Its to keep your armpits from getting sweaty.

[–]SouthFresh 1 point2 points ago

Just imagine how fun this would be if the motorcycle was invisible.

Dangerous too

[–]Whitebread90 0 points1 point ago

He likes to do chin ups. You can't really tell though.

[–]B4RN3Y_5T1NS0N 0 points1 point ago

I was about to post a pic of this guy! Saw him on my drive home for willow springs!!

[–]onlydubs08 0 points1 point ago

Did you go for the bike races over there?

[–]B4RN3Y_5T1NS0N 0 points1 point ago

[–]B4RN3Y_5T1NS0N 0 points1 point ago

No for a family visit

[–]I_am_not_angry -1 points0 points ago

This looks shoped to me.

[–]Bakufun 0 points1 point ago

it isn't these were everywhere during bike week in Myrtle Beach.

[–]spekter299 0 points1 point ago

It's a real thing, they're called ape hangers

[–]rigspirits -2 points-1 points ago

This was on the internet before but I have seen somebody with such a bike. I do not think its photoshopped!!!

[–]TheSemiTallest -1 points0 points ago

I certainly hope [for anyone else near him] that he never has to do any evasive maneuvering...

[–]lvytn -1 points0 points ago

I wonder how he turns...

[–]Ghstfce -1 points0 points ago

Leaning to one side or the other like all people who ride bicycles or motorcycles do?

[–]lvytn -1 points0 points ago

Well, not on this bike. You see, if handlebar is so high like this it is impossible to turn.

[–]shitterplug 0 points1 point ago

You don't really use the bars to turn a motorcycle, you use them to stabilize. You turn by leaning, and the geometry of the bike takes care of the rest. You would know this I'd you have ever ridden a motorcycle. Yes, the super high ape hangers are dangerous, but they won't make turning impossible.

[–]lvytn -1 points0 points ago

Nah, you turning by bars. Leaning is here for stabilizating.

[–]shitterplug -1 points0 points ago

Dude, no. You have no idea what you're talking about. 'Turning' the bars will result in you laying the bike down, they work differently from a steering wheel. You don't even need to have your hands on the bars to steer a motorcycle.

I would advise that you say no more, lest you look like even more of an idiot.

[–]lvytn 0 points1 point ago

Nah, it is like I said.

[–]Ghstfce 0 points1 point ago

That isn't true whatsoever. One arm gets pulled backward so it is directly above the shoulder, the other gets pushed forward in order to make slower turns or to park

[–]lvytn -1 points0 points ago

You cant turn with both arms on handlebar. You can see it from that picture :)
