Motorcycle dictionary

[mattgt]

Hi again

I'm trying to compile an online dictionary of biking terms, and I'm running out.

They are all here https://motorcycledirectory.co.uk/dictionary.php I would really appreciate it if you could add the ones that I've left out. You can either click on the link to add a term, or post up a reply here of anything I've forgotten. I'll add it up as soon as I can.

I appreciate any input you can give

Thanks

Matt

You missed:

Armour - pads hard or soft placed at exposed bones of the body hips , knees , shoulders , elbows , spine designed to absorb some of the energy of impact.

In the definition of a burnout you've put "This describes the act of burning the rear wheel" - should be rear tyre.

Again on the definition of chicken strips. Also It's not necessarily about knee downs but lean angle.

What I didn't first understand when I started reading BCF were "filtering"and "undertake". (offtopic)

[krebsy]

from the daily checks:

Bolts - Brakes, Oil, Lights, tires, Steering&Suspension.
Pigs - Petrol, ignition circuit(/kill switch), Gears, start her up...
---
AGNI's - All the gear but no Idea.

weekend warriors - riders who's bikes only see tarmac every saturday or sunday (fur fun). closely asociated with:

Power rangers. - (generally) weekend warriors with leathers/lid/gear that match the bike, usually on the latest sportsbikes (and no skill to match).

jam sandwich - getting squashed between two cars (usually when you're filtering) when they move to block you.
