smoking bad for your health...

....and your bike

"A motorcylist has had his bike stolen in Sydney's south-west after
being struck over the head with his own helmet.

The 27-year-old stopped his motorbike on Copperfield drive at Rosemeadow
to have a cigarette around 1am today.

He was approached by around ten men and was struck over the head with
his own helmet.

The man fell to the ground and was punched, with the group then taking
his motorbike.

The Kawasaki bike has a registration SAY09.

The group are believed to be aged in their late teens or early twenties."

Kids these days ..
That's why Nolans are good, you can leave them on when you pull over for
a smoke and just flip the front up. I would guess a smack in the head
hurts less with it still on, and headbutts are possibly more successful.

 

Just shows how piss-weak you azre

You got girly hands?

You of coarse, would hardly reach up to their chin

Well, is there another side to this story,?
if there is , let us in on your little secret

 

How could you hit him 6 times as hard as you could? Surely hitting
him as hard as you could would be the practical upper limit for how
hard you could have hit him?


BTH

 

But if you hit him as hard as you could hit him each time you tried......

 

Bet he couldn't do it again

 

Actually that's a phurfy, all you do is grab the chinbar and lead the
rider on a merry dance as you drag him around if he is wearing a helmet.
don't believe me? try it with a mate, wear youe helmet and then get him
to drag you around by the chinbar, open face? by the side of the helmet.

Onya bike...

At which point you go, "Cool; he's staying within reach, and he's got
one hand fewer with which to hit me than I have to hit him."

 

And the champ would be Skull Murphy

 

Try this:

I hit a guy
6 times as hard as I
on the top of his head

(An obvious typing mistake has been removed)

So he's thumping a bloke who's really really dense.

 

Or perhaps he's starting a fight with "a really 'ARD guy guv" who will
then belt the living daylights out of him...


G-S

 

I defy you to grab my open face by the side of the helmet... it's simply
not that thick (unlike the person wearing it).


G-S

 

While you are being dragged around off balance?
You'd have to be some sort of ninja
Just think of the leverage one has when grabbing your helmet

 

Grab you by the strap then drag you sideways?

 

How loose do you wear your chin strap?!

I can barely get 2 fingers under mine after I do it up... and even that
takes several seconds.


G-S

 

Give up while you are losing smeeegles

you are getting deeeper every time you reply

 

GS is a mate and this is a lighthearted conversation George
For what it's worth happy christmas

 

In your case GS I'd move one of your chins to get to the strap

 

What off-balance? They pull towards them, you step forward. They push
away, you step back.

It's the first thing you learn in any self-defence class, as it happens.
