jesus, that dude is having a bad day.

Or maybe he was a brand new rider…shit happens.

But you must have been a pro rider the first time you sat on a bike.

Not trying to be a dick but considering it was a 250 there is a good chance he is noob rider and panicked crossing traffic.

if that was the case yet again he should not be on a bike… new or not. You dont need to be a pro or a 30 year rider to understand that.

And call me a pro then, becasue I havent tucked a tire at 10 mph pulling into a damn parking lot. Thats shit you learn and master IN the parking lot, not pulling a left infront of traffic on a highway!

New or not, I stand by my opinion… Dude cant think & act very well under pressure. A: ground UNDER the bike is on fire… roll it the hell away from the pumps! dont knock it over, spilling more fuel directly on the fire! B: dont fail to yield to on coming traffic when you clearly cant control your bike in the simplest of manuvors.

If he didn’t just dump the first bike over. It probably wouldn’t have burned as bad. Seems like spilled fuel ignited until he dumped it over and the floats let fuel out the carbs overflow and went up in flames.
