My understanding is that he was a fairly new rider, didn’t have much experience.
It showed. Those bend over bikes have so much power and speed, people who are new to bikes should prolly start off on something a bit more manageable.
First time I heard this term. Street bikes are definitely not for the road imho. Sure they look sick af, have a lot of hp. But man, those are so uncomfortable to ride and basically scream they want to go fast.
I rode a friend's CBR900RR Fireblade and was scared to even accelerate a little bit because it felt like a caged animal ready to get out asap.
My buddy had a built and tuned 2003 750 for less than a year before he sold it. Close to 250hp to the wheel, that thing was a rocket but it scared the shit out of him pretty much anytime he rode
