  1. Also... Wifey was just commenting she wished her Garmin gave her option of GoogleMap type driving directions.... i.e listed all at once with drive time e.t.a, that she could look at before leaving to familiarize herself with the route. Says she gets the e.t.a, but it only feeds her directions one step at a time.

    Is that possible, and we're just not finding where the option is?

    My cell phone (Sprint, Samsung Instinct) even does that! The software is crap otherwise, and get's lost and tells you to turn around when you're going the right way, but it will give you a turn by turn!

  2. Looking back over most of the questions here, the biggest factor is going to be the rider, their attitude, and how they're riding.

    License plate lighting for example. Say 2 bikes have no license plate illumination. One is revving the engine, making himself known, the other just being calm and cool. The guy making a scene has given LEO a reason to watch him, and the license plate illumination (lack of) gives the LEO reason to stop the rider. Same for face shield being open. With the shield open, you have no eye protectionand CAN be cited for it, but if you're moving at a low speed, and not seeking attention, you'll probably not have anything to worry about.

    This is sort of like my thoughts on ATGATT. It's more about the attitude of someone going through the process of putting oon all the right gear, than the actual wearing of the gear.

    I think you can probably get away with MUCH more stuff, such as plate illumination, novice riders being out when and where they shouldn't, etc... IF you're riding respectfully, and not trying to draw attention to yourself.

  3. I just read the OP again, and I get what they're saying, that the health risk to their employees would be the issue. Gloves and mask anyone? :lol: I remember when working at a computer store a couple coming in that were so bad you would think the computer itself was doing the smoking! Major yux!!!!

  4. Seriously?!?!?! :wtf:

    Do they REALLY think that every country in the world is going to abide by their "war rules"? I think not.

    They took the beating of that leader TOTALLY out of context. Wasn't it a rogue nation or something that did the beating? It's not as if it was the player, or the "good guys" side. Geesh. I think COD4 is more realistic than their ambitions for one big happy world!

  5. I was talking about Punks Honduh - now that he's rocking the liter bike, thinks he's all that is man.

    But, yea, sure, you too. Except Punk would pull away from me, and I'll leave your Interceptor like you're sitting still... accomplishes the same effect. Neither of you have to listen to liberal gun-hating BS coming from my piehole.

    Gotcha! Exactly right, we don't have to hear about it riding down the road. :lol:

  6. Post count is everything. Besides, everyone needs someone to hate on, on here.

    I won't have to shutup when you can just ride away from me on your wittle honda, right?

    :lol: I hope you're not talking about my Hon-duh! You'd have to be on a moped for that thing to outrun you! ( :( truth)

  7. how do you feel about snowboarding?

    Brrrr.... COLD! :lol: I'm getting older, and don't handle the crashes as well as the last time I went to the "slopes of Ohio" (hills...) :lol:

    I really need to start out at least walking, work up to a jog. I'd be lucky to run or jog 1/4 mile without being winded.....

  8. the only thing wrong the fuel gauge doesnt read oh well

    That will be taken care WHEN the fuel pump goes out. :lol:

    Ya know, I haven't seen the fall run on fuel pumps this year, I woner what's up? Have they not switched the fuel over to the winter blend? Fall and spring are usually busy fuel pump times for us....
