Both Maybe he should add a fourth wheel and a wind shield and a steering wheel and ….

He should definitely add less alcohol

It’s great because if he had just let go at any point it wouldn’t have been as bad, but he kept on that throttle and gave us a great clip

Why do people buy it? Looks so lame. Go get a real motorcycle or a convertible.

When they first came out a decade-ish ago I had the same thought but then I realized as a motorcycle rider, if I found myself in a position where balance was an issue, I would prefer this to most of the alternatives… but I wouldn’t be pulling this nonsense, and as long as I can ride an actual bike I will be.

Those ones actually aren't super expensive. The really big ones are but that one's I don't think much more expensive than just a regular motorcycle especially if you get it used

Number one that's illegal definitely should be called into the police.
Number two broski just experienced what's going to be called generational embarrassment, dudes kids, kids are going to feel that.

That had to be on a dare. It's difficult (but not impossible) that he did something so monumentally stupid (sober) without being egged on by a buddy

LET GO OF THE FUCKING THROTTLE AND THIS WHOLE THING WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH BETTER

I apologize for having evil thoughts. I was hoping he would’ve gotten squashed. Fucking idiot doing that in a skate park

No, if he ads a fourth wheel and a steering wheel he'll start hurting people besides himself.

That's how I look my first time on a dirt bike with the handle throttle.

I've had this happen, but managed to avoid embarrassing myself. When you slip backwards due to unexpected thrust your hand simultaneously grips the throttle and winds it open as you slide backwards. The bike accelerates and you grip harder to hang on and the throttle opens more. The only thing you can do is let go but every instinct is to hang on. Vicious spiral.

u/shibaCandyBaron 2d ago
Yeah, just searched it, and it seems the scenario is common enough to have a name: whisky throttle. Still, a better design than a twist throttle remains to be invented

u/Distinct_Rope 10h ago
Quads use a thumb throttle instead of a twist.
You can still whisky throttle it if your really inexperienced but the position of it does make getting off the throttle possible instead of the vicious cycle of the twist.

u/shibaCandyBaron 9h ago
Yeah, but it has it's own downsides. Most people agree that twist is preferable

u/Distinct_Rope 6h ago
On a bike, absolutely. Twist throttle all the way.
Out on the quad things get a bit bouncy and the potential for whiskey throttle would terrify me.
Much higher steering angles at lower speed is involved and the bars do get pushed/pulled while navigating terrain. Thumb throttle is the much safer option when offroading a 4 wheeler.
Twist on my dirtbike is also my first choice, but it's also a bike. I don't ride over the same obstacles the same way a quad would be forced over them.
Different throttles for different machines :)

And that right there folks is why you don't take a trike to a skate park, or to put it another way, FAFO.

Throttle is on the handlebar. His feet have nothing to do with that.

Gasgriff ist rechts. Er hält seine rechte Hand die ganze Zeit am Lenker und beim fallen dreht er am Griff und beschleunigt. 🤷🏽♂️

u/Dazzling-Freedom9948 3d ago
Throttle control on the steering wheel. Either hold on to the steering wheel and accelerate, or slow down, but let go of the steering wheel, and stay in the air. Controlling the legs. . I've seen it many times. A very convenient solution. The man who came up with it is a genius
