Ever worry about a stranger after seeing them on a motorcycle?

Proposed sequel thread: "Stranger ever worry about you after seeing you on a motorcycle?"

lol....Good point. There are times I’ll come to an awkward stop or something similar and wonder what those around me are thinking.

I like to play a game (more like personal challenge) in which I see how far I can navigate stop & go traffic without putting a foot down. It’s all about keeping my balance at very slow speed. Sometimes, while keeping the bike balanced at 3-5 mph approaching a stop light, I wind up wiggling and turning the bars almost erratically. I’m in control, but once I know I’m off balance, my foot goes down and I come to a complete stop. I always wonder if the person behind me thinks this is my first day on a motorcycle, or if they’re impressed by my prowess.

This is also one of my favorite games. i can get my Speedo down to (i believe) 2 before the bike starts to tip over. my old CBR500 had a digitial speedo and i used to be able to get it to 2 for sure. learning to do this actually really helps with forearm pump because you can pop it into neutral and just coast through stop and go traffic, so it has a practical advantage outside of just testing your balance. it's all about centering your weight in your hips and just letting the bike roll in a kind of zen state.

I assumed that everyone did this, you mean they don't?
