1. No lid, no ride
2. Don't sit on my bike without my permission
3.Don't rush me!
4. Don't move around as a passenger or put your feet down
5. Get on and off from the correct side
6.Don't ride too close to me (front or back)
7. Don't expect me to take unneccessary risks because you are a thrill seeker
8. Let me ride my ride!
9. My ride, Yy rules.....Don't like....Don't care, GET YOUR OWN

I offered to exchange 10r's once so that I could see how an 04 compared to the 06. That never happened since we were having so much fun. We are about the same weight, etc so the sags would have been close. Would have had to relearn a different ride though non the less.

Don't use front brakes in gravel (dumbass)
So .... what ... you just crash into the car / tree / deer / bull / other bike / 300 ft fallbecause you don't use the front brake?

I think he's just saying on a street bike, applying the front brake on gravel will often end up with the rider on his/her side.

Dont downshift to stop in the rain, especially with shaft drive.

Whatched my budy do that the other day, and it didn't work to well for him.

depend on how smooth or rough your shifts are also. rev matched shifts should be almost as smooth and clutching and using the rear brake
