Motorcycle Burnouts

A motorcycle burnout is a spectacle during which an individual attempts to demonstrate how quickly he or she can destroy a motorcycle tire. Motorcycle burnouts are typically performed by chest-thumping males as a way to impress members of the opposite sex. These burnouts are perhaps most impressive when the rider loses control of his or her motorcycle, resulting in a shocking though often hilarious accident, many of which have been documented on video and enjoyed by the internet community over the last several years.

More Info About Motorcycle Burnouts

The burnout is among the loudest tricks one can perform on a motorcycle, and is meant to result in an enormous cloud of smoke being emitted from the rider’s rear tire. The feat can be performed either while seated on a motorcycle or while standing beside it, the latter option often requiring the assistance of a second individual to prevent the motorcycle from spinning out of control. Additionally, a rider may opt to apply a flammable liquid, such as WD-40, to his or her rear wheel and then set fire to the wheel several seconds before performing a burnout; if executed properly, this procedure allows the rider to maintain the illusion of being the fictional demonic bounty hunter Johnny Blaze from the Marvel Comics series “Ghost Rider.”
