I know if you drag a metal mailbox under it, that'll throw sparks. Done that with my truck before (unintentionally).

I think they make them for sport bikes. The piece that actually drags is made of magnesium.

Use to put the big horse shoe taps on our boot heels and ride in front of the pool hall on saturday night and drag our heels to make sparks and so we thought at the time impress the girls. But that was 30 years ago. We know better now.

Just mount a Zippo lighter under your bike and you can be just like that.

Studded rear tire why not, we had'em on the chevy sub with the 454 and it would throw sparks for two blocks.
