I would suggest you get Suzuki GS1100 and see how hard or easy it is to make skid marks.
If my memory serves me right the g's are so strong that one feels one is going over the
handles bars long before the frictional resistence is exceeded at the road surface.
Look at where the medial sides of the knee meet the tank or side casings, one
tends to squeeze hard just to stay on so there may be dents. There may also
be damage to their clothing there.
