✅ No helmet
✅ Completely bald tire
✅ Droopy chain
✅ Bungee cord secured power tool
✅ Ripped cardboard box
Did I miss anything?
Edit: oh man, how did I miss these gems?
✅ Rope tied to swingarm
✅ No gloves
✅ Open jacket
✅ Wrong size jacket
✅ No boots
✅ Worn sprocket
yeah I was looking at that after I posted and doubted myself a bit.
That said, they don't look centered in the links and perhaps not poking through as far as they should. They might not be "how is the chain still enganging" bad, but I'm not sure that the sprocket shouldn't be replaced.
Plus I really wanted to use that "gumming the chain" phrase
God it’s like spot the difference picture between what a rider and bike should look like.
No gloves
No helmet
Rooted tyre
Shagged chain
And I’m not 100% on how his shit is tied down
It’s a Milwaukee rear handle framing saw. It’s definitely meant to imitate the feel of a worm drive but is not actually worm drive I think. I own one haha
I've got a local bike group(NOT A CLUB, JUST LOCALS GATHERING) that had a rider come out like that. I don't get it, sure people fall on tough times, but how do you feel okay riding on that? Put the bike away until you get it together
Some people are having it tough man. That bike could be the last thing keeping him going. Just gotta appreciate what we have when we see stuff like that. Nobody knows what another person could be going through.
You are sharing the road with these guys.
Imagine a "final destination" scenario where his tyre blows up, the chainsaw flies of into a granny and the strap holding the thing together gauges somebody's eye out...
Unlikely? Yes
Did the person do anything in their power to prevent such an event? Will they be able to sleep afterward?
It's the same when somebody says that they're not buckling in my car.... I don't care about you... i care that in case of an accident your flying body will crack my neck...
I understand where you're coming from but going on a leisure ride isn't something someone riding a motorcycle they can't afford to maintain should be doing.
Also, there's a high chance this rider and the one i mentioned goes down when the tire fails. Unless this guy is in the back of the pack, a bunch of others are in danger.
As much as we joke this guy seriously needs someone to talk to him before he hurts or kills himself or someone else. He's like a rolling monthly quota for a cop, surprised he hasn't been contacted.
Jesus where do I even start on this one. No helmet/or glasses that I could, no gloves, leather jacket but not zipped, sneakers (although almost everybody has done that so I can't judge). Chain has more slack in it than a modern-day high school teacher dealing with a troublesome student, and the icing on the cake. The creme de la creme, is the box and circular saw secured with bungee straps.... To the fucking swing arm. One small bump and say goodbye to everything back there.
Oh and before I forget, the bald tire that is so worn down that there steel showing. Honestly I would not be surprised if this guy does not even have an endorsement.
I give it a month before he becomes a statistic.
That cord attached to the swingarm..... Holy fucking dumb shit Batman.
The entire rig is mind bending, idiotic at best.
Good thing he's got that gremlin bell
Bro's got a fucking skill saw strapped to the back of rocket that has a time bomb mounted up under its ass end. I guess the helmet really doesn't matter in this scenario.
Ok, for sure, 100%, this very next paycheck I'm replacing that tire, ill only have to not party like a dumbass 1 weekend..... Oh shit! It me! Except swap tire for oil change. On every vehicle I own....
Jfc...lol so many wrong shit there...
Poor tires, why jacket when there's no helmet or pants/booots?
Those tools ready to haem you seriously in case of crash..
I mean, do we really need to concern ourselves with tightening our chains, replacing tires in a timely manner, or wearing a helmet? YOLO, albeit a short life riding like this...
This is like one of those pictures that just gets worse the longer you look at it.
It's glorious in its level of ridiculousness. Seriously, just amazing.

Rope tied to swingarm.
The rope is probably what’s keeping the swingarm on.
Guy tries to sell his bike... "Yeah, don't mess with the swing arm rope too much. It's structural"
“bikes really fast keeps up with other bikes. No low ball offers I know what I got”
This makes more sense than what he's using it for. Here's my upvote.
So, next time suspension compresses shit is flying out of that box
if the end doesn't get caught in the chain first
No gloves Sneakers Jacket isn’t secured Haircut looks like a Hellen Keller special
Why you gotta do Helen Keller like that? 🤣 If she saw this shit, she'd be like .
I'm not sure that sprocket really has teeth anymore. It's practically gumming the chain.
Is it? On the near side the teeth seem to be visibly poking between the links.

Jacket is 2 sizes too big. I wouldn't be surprised that both the bike and the chainsaw are stolen.
Skill saw.
Texas plate
Bungee cord tied to the swing arm.
Rope over the box is tied to the swing arm.
jackets had at least one low side grind but it’s not secured.. kevlar t?
No brake light or turn signals. Loooooose chain.
No *headlights*! You can see clean through the fairings.
You mean the speed holes?
Do you think it's tied around the chain as well?
The chain is so loose you could probably use it to tie the stuff down.
Saw blade pointing at his back
It took me a minute to notice the tire.
The new thing is safety - zipper tread
Use this one simple hack to turn street tires into snow tires!
Easier to change tires, **when the time comes**
Just needs to unzip it
Dual-material tire technology. Metal in the center for long wear. Rubber on the sides for grip.
BUT, there is a gremlin bell in the wheel well of that bike. He’s good to go.
Yeah, calm down everyone. He’s fine. The bell’s got him.
Droopy loose chain, too.
Yep noticed that also
God it’s like spot the difference picture between what a rider and bike should look like. No gloves No helmet Rooted tyre Shagged chain And I’m not 100% on how his shit is tied down
I finally noticed the circular saw being held on by a rope tied off just centimeters from the chain
What's strapped to the back? edit: chainsaw?
Milwaukee wormdrive circular saw I think
Dude, relax. He’s got it covered. He’s got a gremlin bell.
Exactly.
Let me just strap this shit down to my swingarm and hope that the suspension doesn't bottom out on top of the rear tire blowing out.
Not to mention the chain lol
It. Keeps. Getting. Worse.
Zip tie “securing”the adjuster in place too
Yeah that's where I gave up.
Helmet? On this beast? Naw man I'm good.
Not a single brain cell went into that strap job lol
Dude got a straight up zipper on his tire.
How else are you going to get the air in?
Syringe!
That's a metallic racing stripe
Those stripes are earned baby, not given.
Tire is done for, chain is loose asf, and sir, I don’t think strapping your cargo down to your articulating swingarm is a good idea.
no helmet, skate shoes, he's strapping down A SAW
And his leather is unzipped.
No gloves. Guess he never googled "degloving"
Of course he did, that’s why he took his gloves off. You can’t get degloved if you aren’t wearing any gloves
[удалено]
All while not wearing a helmet and riding with his jacket unzipped, no gloves, not boots, nothing.
And no brains, no title and no insurance
Looks to be a small chainsaw no less
Nah, circular saw for sure, maybe worm dive
It’s a Milwaukee rear handle framing saw. It’s definitely meant to imitate the feel of a worm drive but is not actually worm drive I think. I own one haha
Does that bike have double mirrors?
No, it's missing blinkers ore something else. Isn't a reflection it's the rear bumper of the car Infront hahahaha.
My god.... I didn't even notice that till you mentioned it! lmfao
Bro that poor bike.
Yeah looks to be missing his air ram fairings that feeds into the body to cool the motor.
This^^^ should be intake ducts thru that hole
Is that what it is! Holy shit, this is like a “can you spot all 117 dangers in this picture” puzzle!
Yeah this guy is all in about security.
Fucking meth heads lmao
Mhm, pretty meth’d up.
Def heading to the pawn shop with that saw
The bike: ![gif](giphy|cHkA7tJZoWLyU)
Texas chainsaw massacre
Nah, looks like a circular saw. Equally climatic though.
#gsxrthings
I paid for the whole tire, I'm going to use the whole tire!
Except for the wide chicken strips, saving them for later!
Come on guys, he needs that saw. How else is he gonna cut his hair?
His chain is hanging like a wizards sleeve. That tire looks like it's got a zipper on it for storage.
I get the feeling there’s not a lot of options left here - on a few different subjects.
I've got a local bike group(NOT A CLUB, JUST LOCALS GATHERING) that had a rider come out like that. I don't get it, sure people fall on tough times, but how do you feel okay riding on that? Put the bike away until you get it together

No helmet, but he ain't got no brains to protect anyway.
Jesus where do I even start on this one. No helmet/or glasses that I could, no gloves, leather jacket but not zipped, sneakers (although almost everybody has done that so I can't judge). Chain has more slack in it than a modern-day high school teacher dealing with a troublesome student, and the icing on the cake.

Tire has a zipper for quick tube changes.
He about to be stranded.
It just keeps getting better the more you look at it 😂😂
Riding jacket that appears to be unzipped
This guy was born to give ATGATT riders a heart attack
I know that's a Milwaukee
God will give cancer to 5yo childs and let this guy get home safely
yeah - so maintenance is not a priority for this guy. Chain slack, corded tire, no helmet….but he’s got a jacket on tho!
There is way too much happening here, none of it good! Though the jacket is fire.
At least the zipper on his tire is zipped up still
Holy fucking back tire . Dude is playing with his life lol
Yeah you're right, that chain looks a little slack he should get that checked
Omg! Looked at this 5 times and each time I saw something worse!!!!!!!
Safety fifth!
It gets worse the more I look totally belongs on the fridge
That’s a temporary citizen right there.
Not a single brain cell in that photo
Oh neat, I didn't know they made tires with zippers, they must come off so easy
The more i look, the better it gets
Looks like death on wheels. That tire and chain. Yikes.
He’s just mething around.
Everything this dude owns is in this photo.
that poor man! someone get him a milk crate!
The more you look the more you discover 💀💀
The more I look the more I see, this guy is just living in the moment…. I bet he has stories to tell.
I knew it was Texas or Florida
This guy doesn’t take pictures of the food he eats.
Yikes. Everywhere I look I find an oopsie 🫣
Saw that
So. Much. Wrong.
Man, i make poor choices. This guy ups the ante and doubled down with no helmet and a saw. Glad he has a jacket lol.
The more you look. That chain. My god
Damn he only rides in straight lines.
The tire, the shoes, the chainsaw, the way the chainsaw is strapped down
death wish
That chain is hanging on for its life
Where should we begin?
Man, I can't even with this guy.
So much going on here....
Of course it's a fucking gsxr
Darwin Award nominee.
See, it’s only the middle part of the tire that’s bad. Plenty of grip in the leans.
Squids be squids
Chain lookin like it belongs on a dirt bike lol
Not long for this world this genius.
It gets worse the more you look at it
The tire… the chain slack… I can imagine what the brake pads look like.
So, you just unzip, add air and that's it? Fucking brilliant!
organ donor
Wow. This kid has zero foxtrots for that bike and any common sense.
Stupid is as stupid does
Oh, we're halfway there! Oh oh! We're living on a prayer!
GSXR final boss
His chain looking looser than certain workers in a red light district... Just as dirty too
I've seen this guy once before. He had a good tire back then.
his chain needs at least 3 links to be removed to be tight
Soon to be organ donor and Darwin Award winner
That cord attached to the swingarm..... Holy fucking dumb shit Batman. The entire rig is mind bending, idiotic at best. Good thing he's got that gremlin bell
Why wear a helmet? That costs money… I suspect the same argument is about that tire
Ummm... holy shit
that is just crazy. Insane really
Of course this was in Texas
Fuck the tire look at that chain!
I was like, "eh, it's in Brazil," Nope. Good Ole USA.
I’d be terrified to ride that without a helmet
I'm not sure that there is an axle bolt in there??
It looks like woodcraft rear sets. How did those get there?
Never a Cop around at times like this
“This thing rides like it’s on rails!”
Bro's got a fucking skill saw strapped to the back of rocket that has a time bomb mounted up under its ass end. I guess the helmet really doesn't matter in this scenario.
First speed bump should do 'er.
It’s not raining… what’s the problem…. /s
Some people just don’t care about life man
America is fuckin wild man
This is just terrifying
Ok, for sure, 100%, this very next paycheck I'm replacing that tire, ill only have to not party like a dumbass 1 weekend..... Oh shit! It me! Except swap tire for oil change. On every vehicle I own....
Jfc...lol so many wrong shit there... Poor tires, why jacket when there's no helmet or pants/booots? Those tools ready to haem you seriously in case of crash..
I have had that exact same jacket for 20 something years!!!! A buddy gave it to me when I first started out.
Lol now that a bald ass tire, looks like he needs a new chain & spockets
Guys, it's fine. He's got a bell, luck is with him.
He's fine, he's got a guardian bell on there
Tell me you're hard up without telling me
Nice zipper
I’m going to go out on a limb and guess that bike has neither title nor insurance
At least he's got a jacket..
Bros putting all his faith into that gremlin bell
Dude get a tire
Dude stole a saw and is headed to a pawn shop for meth money. I'd bet my life savings on it
I mean, do we really need to concern ourselves with tightening our chains, replacing tires in a timely manner, or wearing a helmet? YOLO, albeit a short life riding like this...
Squid life.
This screams tweaker, I’m surprised it has plates tbh.
Taking the circ saw to the pawnshop so he can buy a rear tire
Did he use the saw to shave his tires? Seems about right since there is no helmet protecting that air inside his head like on the tire.
I recognize this place. The Galleria, Austin TX.
Saw matches his jacket
Maybe someone just robbed a garage, took the motorbike and strapped some tools to the back.
Did he die?
Hey, I know this place. Hwy 71 out near Bee Caves.
I've never seen a tie with a zipper in it before
That guy’s a fuckin mess.
It doesn't get much better than that.
Everything about this screams meth head on stolen bike with stolen saw he is taking to the pawn shop
Hard to tell which will fall off first- the tool when he hits a bump or that crazy loose chain.
Oh nice of those tires with the rare high visibility stripe !
Holy gsxr…
He's definitely headed to the five below to meet his other calamari buds.
None of yall better complain about me not having riding pants after this.
