YES WE WERE ON HOLIDAY so riding gear was somewhat limited but The feeling that your feet were going to arrive first I found very un-nerving. it also displayed the feeling that it had a hinge before the tank very wobbly it had little to no lean angle, me shaving off copious amounts off the running boards, it was painfully slow and felt a little like I expect the rotivator must have driven like in the good life. we went up into the hills a place called Jerome where there were some bends The mrs was really uncomfortable on what passed as a seat and all the bends had to be carefully negotiated as though the road was an ice rink ( i was by this time worried I had shaved off so much foot board that I'd lose my deposit
here is the offending Bike and Mrs
not often the youngest in town!! let this be a warning The "quid pro quo" for hiring the bike was that I had to ride a horse up monument valley! this really should put you off
Agricultural doesn't even come close
The horse or the Harley?

HTF did he manage that? Throttle still on as well as the front brake and the giant rear overwhelmed the skinny front tyre?

I think he was hoping (fantasising) that he'd be doing a rolling burnout but panicked when he had traction, then grabbed all the front brake.
