@@taterlysaladman9377 I was riding to Mammoth Cave in Kentucky a couple of years ago when we, my wife was my pillion, encountered a group of maybe 20 plus Harleys clogging a narrow state highway. They were blocking and were well aware of it as I saw them actively block people from passing. I got up close to them on my FJR and passed the first cluster putting myself in between and before they realized I was in their midst I passed the rest of them. I don't know if they had novices with them or what the situation was but what I did wasn't reckless they were going between 35 & 45 mph on roads designed for much faster speeds. It gives everyone else on motorcycles a negative image. Not everyone who rides HD is that way but there's enough of them to create that image so that they get lampooned, most notably by "South Park."

Read thru a lot of the comments, and a few things occur to me...1) the reason to watch a vid like this is to learn; if you just want carnage, there are better sights for that (they have clickbait thumbnails) 2) many have made certain stretches of road infamous, identified by equally descriptive names: the Dragon...the Snake...realize any older road/byway that follows a river, ridge line, or ascends/descends a pass is going to be epic. When you fail to anticipate roads of such caliber are everywhere (perhaps around the next corner) you become complacent, and will be caught unawares. 3) don't blame the equipment, the tires, the roadway. It is best to assume an accident is rider error (yes, even if you are hit) as to think otherwise implies we've nothing to learn from the experience...hit gravel? Should have seen/anticipated it. Got sideswiped? Should have anticipated, yielded or gotten out of harms way, etc. I ride a 2002 FZ1 running Shinko Ravens (infamously cheap tires) and I do almost no "slab time" (my favorite roads are paved backwoods logging and BLM roads)...the road surface is generally chip-n-seal/poorly maintained asphalt, they often contain debris, and site lines are generally un maintained (at best). One can ride a very brisk pace on such roads if one has the skill, focus, and enough experience...although a full bagger is likely going to be a handful in such conditions which then begs the question: why ride it there at all? Part of being a "good rider" is knowing your skill level, your bikes capabilities, and the limitations of both. Perhaps trying to fulfill a bucket list isn't what riding is about. And for those who lost a friend/loved one to a motorcycle accident, I am sorry for your loss, but one must realize that it is a dangerous pastime. One should never forget that, and if that had not occurred prior, perhaps one should not have been riding in the first place. Before you accuse me of being a heartless troll realize I lost my father to a motorcycle accident. He was coming up out of Lakeview, Or, traveling to the "Sound of Thunder" when he lost control of his cruiser at a significant rate of speed. He was also wearing one of those POS "Skid Lids" (and let's just say it wasn't an 'open casket'). He had a lifetime of riding experience. Was it bad judgement? Road debris? Mechanical issue? No one will ever know now. The only thing we can learn from such is that life is dangerous: it will kill you in the end. Mitigate your time as best as you see fit. For me, death goes hand in hand with life. It can be sudden, even tragic, but don't fool yourself that it isn't always looking over your shoulder...I ride because it is part/parcel of life for me (approaching 50yrs in the saddle). I've had friends die, I've had family die, but I will continue to ride until I cannot anymore...but that is a choice that everyone must make for themselves.

This is how most Harleys ride the Dragon. Not the tail, it's the Dragon. Let me tell you the history. Back in the old days, Mac's hotel and gift shop were all we had on the dragon, and the speed limit was 55. Folks would ride their motorcycles fast and time the runs. So there were guys that claimed to have the fastest times running the dragon. Then something disturbed the space time continuum. The internet took over. And overnight, large bellied bozos on huge 900 pound motorcycles started appearing on the dragon in groups, riding only a few feet apart, slayers if you will. And these slayers would flop and drop, usually killing a faster motorcyclist with their behemoth tractor machines. Turns out, you can take half a frog brain and that is all you need to ride a 900 pound harley with a low center of huge gravity down a straight road. Even today they still come, called by the pied piper internet bullshit groups, and in large groups they clog the dragon from dawn to dusk. Now say what you will, there are a few of them that are good riders temporarily riding a harley, but most of them have no regard for improvement or admitting the limits of their skills, and they can't wait to pound the Harley into a dusty ditch and blame it on some figment of the asphalt or their own imagination. If you see some huge belly with a beard standing above you, likely he just severed your spinal column with his 900 pound tractor, and you will soon be dead, on the dragon.

I did it last year 2 up on mine. I had a great time and was passing plenty of other bikes. A bike only goes through the dragon as slow as the riders skill allows.

Shouldn’t be driving that fast anyway, if you want to go fast take it to the track

You shouldn't be doing a lot of shit you do. Tracks are run by idiots and they let young punks pass on the inside. And charge you $300 or more and have inspection at 7 AM. I am still on the shitter at 7. Fuk that.

He wasn’t leaning at all when he drove off the road? Strange he did the other corner ok.

Good to watch these videos and learn from their mistakes....I ride a 2018 Fat Bob and I’m a new rider and find it easy to turn....just know your limits and don’t be afraid to lean in

I was waiting for the POV to wipe out. Instead, it was the guy in front of him who basically pulled his lunch pail. Obviously a newbie. Your ego will get you killed every time.CRASHING SUCKS 😡

Wow. I have ridden it a lot of times, but never witnessed a crash. Seen the aftermath, but not the actual event.

I have been at the scene immediately afterwards but never have seen one occur. Guess I am too slow.

I don't know where he's at but not deals gap. No 180 degree turns. Also the dragon is Loaded with bikes and cars. Nobody crazy enough to be pulling a boat up it.

Cammer got too close and Harley guy sped up to try and not be an inconvenience. He shouldn't have done that. Most riders would be pissed if they were following me. I'm not a thrill seeker. It's thrilling enough just to ride the bike. I take turns and curves very conservatively.

Hysterical ! Some idiot decides his " Hardly Able-son" is a performance bike ? LOL ! Yeah, i put sticky tires on my dump truck but for some reason it didn't work out. My advice if you want to take a corner on 2 wheels ? Sell your " Hardley Ableson " & your leather vest, take a bath & buy a Honda. or a Suzuki or an Anything !
