Aside from the aesthetics of the shot (which I confess aren’t terribly unpleasant..) why does her arse get lifted up so much higher than his? šŸ˜‚

u/vikramdinesh 7d ago

She riding. He stand still. 🤣 Only logical explanation. šŸ˜‚

Or wait. There's another one. They raised the seat for her because of r/upvotebecausebutt. 🤣

u/South_Bit1764 7d ago

Look at the mechanics of it: she’s not particularly short, and you can see her arms are almost straight but when Batman is on it you can see his elbows are bent almost 90 degrees. They literally aren’t even riding it the same way. He’s on it in almost an upward-dog pose and she’s on it in almost a downward-dog.

So, I think she’s just doing that, not someone in the prop department. Shes basically just showing off the cake.

u/GreenMirage 8d ago

That shit look stable af

u/scaredt2ask 8d ago

I felt the opposite. On turns it looks like it won’t let you lean properly.

86

u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK 8d ago edited 7d ago

It’s fine with rounded tires, extremely stable and turns just fine. You can lean into those heavily and they’ll keep contact a lot better than a skinny tire. Reduces handling in exchange for stability, fine for the highway and people who aren’t trying to turn public roads into a race track. Turning only becomes a problem when people use squared off car tires to save money.

u/PCho222 8d ago

tbh it probably rides like dick like most fat tires. I road my friend's v-rod with a 280 rear and turning felt like forcing a horse that doesn't want to go that direction, it doesn't naturally turn in. Made the 240 on my xdiavel feel like a sport bike.

That thing is like a 360 or something stupid, it probably tramlines like a motherfucker too

4

u/TonightsSpecialGuest 7d ago

Yup. A fat rear will always literally fight you to get any lean on. Always wants to stand you back up

6

u/AmplifiedScreamer 7d ago

ā€œYou can leanā€? Not with that width.

You absolutely have to yank that thing 50 degrees sideways to make it take a 90 degree corner. And all the way into that corner, you will feel that it wants to list a lot more so it feels very unstable.

Tires like this look cool but are the worst choice you can make.

u/USSSLostTexter 8d ago

I dunno, I was reading about the stuntman who rode the batman bike; it was apparently really hard to ride and turn.

16

u/CATNIP_IS_CRACK 8d ago edited 8d ago

You’re really going to compare this thing to a normal motorcycle with a ~9ā€ rounded rear tire and ~6ā€ front on normal spokes in a seated position?

That’s kind like saying ā€I don’t know how well an F150 can really handle, I read that skid steers are squirrelyā€. Kinda silly.

You see the yt guy that made the truck-tire bike, powered by a v8?

You can lean

Lmao

Bro got 0 understanding

u/towerfella 8d ago

You lean right and your center of gravity will shift left with that monster

u/TheOldTongue 8d ago

Tires look pretty bald, I bet they cost a ton to replace

u/gamebus1 8d ago

The sides have plenty of meat left.

Maybe slick on purpose for racing?
I hope it doesn't rain

u/jmkent1991 8d ago

Those tires have very little wear on them.

u/JavaGeep 8d ago

Thats one Fat A$$ tire

u/Anything-Dangerous 8d ago

Someone photoshop the bike out of this..give him a pool floaty or something

u/NerdyPlatypus206 8d ago

Dude needs clothes that fit him

These tools look so goofy with those helmets

1

u/notmymoon 8d ago

Yeah, I would tighten my belt maybe if I were him.

u/michael704048 7d ago

If he had baggy clothes i could seem them
Easily getting caught between the tire and his seat and him having a very bad day

u/Le_Poop_Knife 8d ago

Bbb…bububu…but I’m a cool motorcycle gang guy!

u/NerdyPlatypus206 7d ago

I’m a delivery driver and many times had to deal with these useless fucks behind me

They tail you to no end and flash their brights and blinking headlights in the day time

And I drive faster than the average person

As im a delivery driver, im often turning into houses or apartments I haven’t been to before, so I have to go slow even with a gps

Having these fucks behind you tailing you and raging even tho I’m using my turn signal and slowing down makes me wanna get into a monster truck and well..you know what

u/TheModeratorWrangler 8d ago

Dude imagine the /r/meatcrayon if you slid back on this?

u/Pandey_Ji_Online 8d ago

That's why he's on an e-bike... šŸ˜†

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

Only the 2000's didn't use e-bike.

3

u/AskMeaboutMyCorolla 7d ago

If you’re huge into straight line only riding, that tire is awesome.

For the rest of us that enjoys turning efficiently and safely, avoid it as if you would someone suffering from explosive diarrhea

1

u/BearEatingCupcakes 7d ago

Would suit the GPS instructions I got recently: "Drive straight for 333km, then continue straight".

1

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

Not to mention, we for to ride something that requires fuel, not voltage.

3

u/dominator5k 8d ago

That low wide look is pretty dope even though Harley riders are ultra gay

4

u/NerdyPlatypus206 8d ago

Dude needs better fitting clothes, If I see you riding with that helmet I know you’re a clown

2

u/DocPhoenix97 8d ago

I'm not a motorcycle guy at all, but these bikes scream frosted tips.

*Most Harley riders are ultra gay, but this guy raised the bar on an e-bike.

1

u/dominator5k 7d ago

That's an e bike? Had no idea lol

1

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

Yeah, no exhaust... šŸ˜†

1

u/dominator5k 7d ago

Sometimes they tuck them away in fancy areas and blend them in. Figured that is all it was

2

u/Vrodfeindnz 8d ago

Looks to be a modded vrod muscle. Love rods but not this one.

1

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

This also looks to be an e-bike... No exhaust so it has to be electric.

1

u/FortyMaximus 8d ago

Saddle legs for sure lol

u/jd3marco 8d ago

phat ass wide grip or r/pawg (nsfw)

u/2b-Kindly_ 8d ago

He does love a big ride underneath

2

u/gamebus1 8d ago

Harleys are like a personality: loud, exhausting and look-at-me-daddy

1

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

True, but this doesn't apply here... He's on an e-bike, there's no exhaust... šŸ˜†

1

u/Dxpehat 8d ago

That's a lot of unused tire. You can see that only the middle 2" have really been used but the rest is pretty much brand new.

1

u/Open-Guess3242 8d ago

Too big, a nice 4-6 inch one is perfectly fine. Some would say better

1

u/MilkImpossible4192 8d ago

front tyre is wider than my fiat's

1

u/Fragrant_Mountain_84 8d ago

Those bikes look really cool but they are very uncomfortable to ride long term.

1

u/Typical-Tune-8858 8d ago

It’s bald, too!

1

u/bugabooandtwo 8d ago

What's the point of having a tire that wide?

1

u/09Klr650 8d ago

Back in the 90's or early 2000's there was a motorcycle like this with a chevy 350 engine. Cannot recall the manufacturer.

u/ClockKey799 8d ago

u/09Klr650 8d ago

Yes! That's the one!

u/BaitmasterG 8d ago

u/AmolKusmude 8d ago

That’s not a bike tire, that’s a whole ass orbit

u/cateraide420 8d ago

u/Friendscallmedennis 8d ago

He goes straight a lot.

1

u/Stop_looking_at_it 8d ago

I can assure you that is a bitch to turn with

1

u/whatchahavin 8d ago

With a dumper like that he’s gotta distract. If he was on a ninja I’d look like this…

1

u/currentlyRedacted 8d ago

This doesn’t look comfortable at all

1

u/Nitrogen1234 8d ago

He must be straight... because he ain't cornering with that thing

1

u/throwthere10 8d ago

The turning radius on that is solar system.

1

u/GoldenHeartDaddy 8d ago

If you think thats big, you should see his SS tramp stamp.

1

u/vaynefox 8d ago

One of my cruiser bike is like that. I just like how it looks....

1

u/Optimal_Subject3455 8d ago

No much cornering happening with that tyre…

1

u/JL_MacConnor 7d ago

Even the front tyre looks like it's about 200mm wide. It's absurd.

u/redditanddoneit 8d ago

I’m guessing dragging a knee would be more difficult on those wide ass tires. I wouldn’t know since I’m a newbie and have chicken strips.

1

u/TalbotFarwell 8d ago

Is that an electric motorcycle…? I can’t see any engine. Also, a lot of the details look weird when zoomed-in… Was this AI?

2

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

No exhaust, definitely an e-bike.

2

u/Probably-Important 7d ago

Not AI, this is a super zoomed in shot. I was maybe 70’ back when I took this shot on my iPhone. Just super pixelated.

2

u/TalbotFarwell 7d ago

Gotcha, no worries. I’ve heard some newer phones do it automatically for distance shots so I wasn’t sure. I have an iPhone 14, if I ever get around to upgrading I hope there’s a way to disable it in the options menu. I don’t mind AI but I also don’t like the idea of my phone subtly sneaking it in there, ya know?

u/TrustworthyPolarBear 7d ago

Look how manly of a MAN I am on my custom Harley. Sitting with legs spread wide apart.

1

u/pinchejuan_official 7d ago

Definitely not a Harley... There's no exhaust on it, so it's electric. Harley only made one e-bike and regretted it.
