  3. This brings up an interesting topic of learning to shoot with your offhand. Right handed holster isn't going to do me a lot of good on the bike if I want to keep moving.

  4. I think you need to pick one or the other, if you try and do both you will suck at both. But there are always exceptions to any rule.

  5. These are my same habits. 10-20 over the rate of other traffic, ride in the left lane, with frequent mirror checks for any dumbshits closing in. I'm always aware as possible of my surroundings on the roads. I try to stay out of others' way, if not for safety's sake, then just out of courtesy. If someone flys up on me, I'll move over or blast away from them until it's safe to merge out of their way.

  9. Like others have stated I will roll in the speed lane until an opening with no asshats and I will cruise there. I would rather be pulling in traffic and passing than worrying about asshats rolling up on me from the rear.

  15. Not 9/11. 9 1 1 The dude was laying there on his back for a long time looking up, and God said 'He must be an idiot, he just drove right into the side of that truck for no fucking reason. He needs a hint on what to do next.' Which is of course call 911.

  19. Bro, don't take me to places that give me horrendous gas. A couple times I farted merely cause I was distracted and wasn't focused on holding it in. One time I did it specifically cause I started laughing and almost crapped my pants. Other than that, it was pure ability to not do it, but just choosing not to.

  24. for the millionth time the bike being sold was my decision and she told me not to sell it. What's the point of having $5500 sitting in the garage not getting any use and depreciating?

  25. Saw a headline last night "No evidence Hillary willfully broke the law". When was guilt ever relevant to whether breaking the law was done through ignorance, by accident, or on purpose? I forgot, politicians get special exemptions...asshats.

  29. Faster is better. It's a lot easier to evaluate what the numbskulls are doing as you approach them from the rear than trying to evaluate using your mirrors. While commuting I am mostly in the left side of the passing lane going 15 or 20 mph faster than the traffic in the next lane. If someone comes up behind me I get over or speed up to let them travel at their desired speed. If someone is clogging up traffic by being in the passing lane but not passing I filter between the passing lane & the next lane over. It's good to pretend you are invisible to other drivers.

  30. If I'm going faster than everyone else then I really only have to worry about trouble coming from in front of me, right? And I just so happen to be much more likely to see trouble coming from in front of me because that is the direction in which I am looking.

  31. My general freeway safety rule is if I can control the time and speed of the pass, it's safest for me. If I let people overtake me from behind with regularity, I am relying on everyone who does so to do so safely... too many cooks spoil the pot, in my opinion. Best to maintain control of your own soup.

  32. I get that, and that is where I am. But are we safer....say in the turnpike where there isnt much merging traffic staying right...going slower so we dont get clipped while passing. Guess I answered my own question. It depends. I actually do run right on the turnpike.

  35. Yup, mowed when I brought it home last week and again today. It's my first time on a Zero and it took some getting used to. Especially the whole it won't turn going down hill thing. I'm slowly getting the hang of it. Both times the grass what a bit wet so haven't really seen how well it can mow but it mows wet grass pretty damn good. Starting to do some accessorizing, got a 20" led light bar for the front and ordered a suspension seat mount, lever extentions(because they hit my long ass legs)and an engine guard. I'll post new pics when I get it all done, maybe next week.

  39. IMHO, tires that slide easier will teach you what you need to know. If you're competing that's one thing but track days are another thing. Q3s are good enough for me right now. If you are afraid to slide Q3s you shouldn't be riding a higher spec tire. IMHO.

  40. What? Cold tires have less grip??? No way, I bought warmers cause stands and tire socks look so pro in the paddock. Mid-O sucks in the cold, wet, and after car events(until the residual rubber is cleared). Warmers and race compound tires are not going to make it any better. When the track comes in, it is amazing and you won't be sliding anywhere on any reasonable tire in the 1:40's. Your scenario of 40 degrees and sub 40 pace is bullshit....you knew it when you were typing it. Half the A group doesn't turn a sub 40 pace on a perfect day, let alone a day that is 40 degrees. At that temp, most sane people are not going to attempt to turn a sub 40 lap for at least the first half of the day, unless they enjoy throwing motorcycles down the track. Bottom line, you consider 5 days out of a rear (with a flip) at mid-o running a mid to upper 40's pace to be "forever" and it scares the shit out of you? Or are you talking about the 14 day front UK slick that I bought from you? I agree that was forever and I wouldn't recommend it, but it was far from scary. The tire was perfect condition and I wanted to feel the front fade. As I already said, 1:2 ratio front:rear is what I run; as scary/risky as that is. Or the 3rd option, you just want to type a bunch and start drama. Agreed; and that is the reason I switched to race compound tires. Had Q2's unexpectedly let loose on me a couple times. GPA's (and Pirelli DOT's in my limited experience) fade consistently; the fade is something you can feel and know where the tire is, instead of looking at it and guessing. Q3's could be different, never been on one. If you are measuring tire life in days and you don't have the option to change or have a spare....get a new tire. If you are questioning the tire....get a new tire. If you are not smart enough to back down in less than ideal conditions...get a new hobby or good insurance. If your not skilled enough...get a new tire and get on track more.
