Interesting. I wonder if there might have been a time where laying down a bike might of worked. I know, from riding friends bikes in the past, that the brakes on bikes in the past were less than stellar. Drum brakes were barely usefull and Harleys, well....I think this is where the idea came from of laying down the bike. You'd prolly stop faster on the ground than using the brakes in an emergency situation. (Probably not, but I could see where one might be mislead to think so.) Oh, and if you're in the movies, and a semi-truck pulled out in front of you from a cross street while you're chasing a baddie, you'd have to lay it down get under the trailer!
:^) All in fun, kids, all in fun! Brandon
