36 reasons why women will have success in coed motorcycle racing

Average 20-29 yrs white male weight: 168 lbs

Average 20-29 yrs white female weight: 132 lbs

Average female advantage: 36 lbs

How much do you have to spend to remove 36 lbs of sprung weight from a race bike?

P.S. why I posted this in Moto Photos, I have no idea. Could we move this to General?

Women generally also tend to have better leg strength for a given body mass, and more flexible hips (good for lateral movement.)

You guys are sexist. There is no difference between men and women and you're pigs for trying to say there is. :rolleyes

Sexist, I don't think so. It's a sport in which weight plays a big deal so those that are on average, of slimmer stature, will have an advantage. Look at horse racing jockeys for an example of this.

then why dont pro athletic women play in same leagues as men? (basket ball, golf, tennis etc etc) there are MANY difference between men and women. its those differences that we enjoy typically :sex


I am not saying that one is superior to the other, just that they are different.

Do any of the guys that race(racing that gets you paid) weigh near 170lbs? I highly doubt it.

Thats an average of the population. You need to grab averages from horse jockey's or something. Everyone's like 5' tall and 110lbs
