So after your statement i think worldwide motorsports forums "Pictures" related in which this forum as well is "Showoff Forums".

About No safety gear.

Yes in Pakistan 100% riders not 99.9 Mostly all bikers around pakistan not wearing gears because every location depend on its own trends. In Pakistan bikerboyz love to ride in freestyle they don like wearings kitss etc just love to wear beautiful helmets with T-Shirts with Jeanz thats it.
Superbikez, I'm not talking about the lack of safety gear. I'm talking about wheelieing on public roads with a standing pillion at 220 kmph (if that is actually true); it is an invitation for trouble and putting other road users at risk.

By not wearing safety gear a rider is endangering his own life, not the life of others. So if someone has got a deathwish that's cool with me.

And, there's nothing wrong in showing off beautiful machines, we enjoy seeing them; keep 'em coming mate!

One thing here i would like to add is that....why do people only say that wearing riding gear will help in saving your life....?? If a person had a crash at some 150 - 200 km/hr then even the riding gear wont save him...!!

Well, my point here is that pls check the road first where you are stunting/riding your bike....it should be such where you dont have to panic and apply sudden brakes(which leads to most number of accidents)..!!

I too meant the same as what StreetFighter says. Mr. Superbikez - u urself have said that u crashed into a corolla with kids driven by a mom that too on a public road at 200+ speeds. If u had killed one of the car's passengers or something had happened to u, will u be able to forgive urself???

Guys, there's no need to get animated and emotional.

Superbikez, you know it is wrong to ride/stunt without adequate gear. Saying that 99% of the world does it does not make it right.

And I do agree, pro stunters very often only wear helmets. But that doesn't make it right.

And to the others, if you feel superbikez is showing off there's nothing wrong with that. This is what this forum is here for I believe.

I strongly agree with you... promoting superbikes without safety gears is always a show off !!!

No forum is exempted from the above.

And in INDIA, especially XBHP doesnt like someone posting their pics without safety gears... We are not freestyle riders. We are Responsible riders.

PS: in above "MY" intends XBHP.

Bro, I don't see one reason NOT to wear safety gears. I mean - What's the advantage? Hum aisa kyun karen aakhir???

and advantages of the gear are multiple - Legality, Safety, Respect/ Pride, etc. Even if you never crash, Why Risk it? Although, Posing with standing Bike is Acceptable ...


But, no gear while riding, if you think it's a Trend - Then Change it!! Wrong is wrong, whether 10 follow it or 10 million!
I'm a man who'll stand against one or many - for anything that's wrong!

Cut it short.

On Xbhp, we dont allow stunt/ride pictures without adequate safety gears. So mods, pull down pictures that violate rules. Simple. So no hard feelings.

What is wrong is wrong, and henceforth plz try and influence the group not to stunt on public roads that too in traffic. Rightly said if your friends think they dont need safety gear, fine. Just try not to harm others in the process. And just telling one person among 100s of bikers in Pakistan wont bring the change. Definately 'superbikez' can convince friends for safety gear but not the majority people.

Anyways, thanks for the pictures, keep sharing them!

Without Riding Gear - 150 / 200 kmph crash - Body Beyond recognition

With Riding Gear - 150 / 200 kmph crash - Atleast something will be left.

It only gives you a better chance of surviving a crash. And as its a life & death scene, better to try to reduce chances without reducing SPEEDs.

The riding gear would have only from bruises...!! But at that speeds the bones would also get the beating, which the riding gear wont be able to protect..!!
