Talking "Tank Slapper" Newbie Edition

So I came Across with this New word by watching one of the videos here talking about tank slapper, since I'm new to motorcycling i went and research. came across with this explanation by urban dictionary.com


tank slapper
When a motorcycle shakes its head. The front forks going from lock to lock.
Sen. He got into a big tank slapper and stepped off on the high side.

Now i went to Youtube And Got This Amazing videos

@Knobs28: A word being thrown around this forum a lot that took me a while to figure out was "WOT".

"So then I went WOT and got pulled over"

"Bro, just go WOT"

"I went WOT into the back of a pickup" (Jiggles)

Q: "How much power should I put down coming out of a corner on a 250?"
...
A: "WOT" (Alex.S answer)

How am I supposed to make sense of that? WOT = WHAT??

Eventually I figured out it means "Wide open throttle" - which apparently is a popular thing to do on these lil bikes
