I never dreamed slowly cruising through a residential neighborhood could be so incredibly dangerous!
Studies have shown that motorcycling requires more decisions per second, and more sheer data processing than nearly any other common activity or sport. The reactions and accurate decision making abilities needed have been likened to the reactions of fighter pilots! The consequences of bad decisions or poor situational awareness are pretty much the same for both groups too.
Occasionally, as a rider I have caught myself starting to make bad or late decisions while riding. In flight training, my instructors called this being

Golden. Your sense of humor far exceeds my own -- I'm still laughing. My sides are hurting. My eyes are bleeding. And now I have an indescribable sense of unease when around squirrels. Thank you

We removed the exhaust housing and replaced it with a large hampster wheel. It was quite entertaining.

What sort of squirrel did you use? The North American variety? I was thinking of upgrading to a 13g, and the idea appeals to me. What sort of squirrel boost would I see by around 3000RPM?
It'd be curious to see how the squirrel responded to throttle response.

Well that depends on the health of the squirrel you found...
