  1. I agree with others about the NT4IN, but the NT4N or NT4EN makes sense. I was thinking maybe if you were Asian, it would mean Not Technically 4 Inches. Through some kind of obscure technicality you're exceeding 4 inches?
  2. Stories like her's is why I prefer to leave the rear seat cowl on my bike.
  3. Palm Pre here. I was one of the early adopters. I really liked the commercials. And it really works well as long as the hardware holds up. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tSMj5RoYdEI&feature=related
  4. Looked like two stoppies before the collision.
  5. Looks like there will be another surge of new motorcycle riders this year.
  6. Happy birthday! Looks like you'll get a new bumper! I had paint peeling on my old car's bumper. I was driving at dusk all the time looking for a deer to run into, around 35-40 mph. I calculated that 35 - 40 mph would cause just enough damage to get me a new bumper, but no luck. Got a new car this past summer and deer are jumping out in front of me all the time. I could have got a least 3 deer easily in just one night.
  7. I like his soundtracks, I didn't realize John Williams was also an economist! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMp22y9OUHA
  8. I'm guessing the new guy got the privilege of defusing.
  9. I just cruise right around the speed limit most of the time. I guess I just like enjoying the scenery, fresh air, and sounds of riding. I would be alright with a vintage 2-cycle scooter, as long as it could hit 75 mph. If it comes down to a series of nice corners I usually ride around 75% of what I would consider my limit. The techniques that I've learned at riding schools have moved my 75% limit significantly beyond my old 100% limits. I'm hoping this year I can surpass my 100% limit again while feeling at a relaxed 75%. When I'm with a group I moderate my riding style slightly to the group. If the group is going slow or fast I'll adjust my style accordingly. If a nice series of corners arrives, I'll take into consideration the abilities of the other riders. I don't want someone crashing trying to pass me or catch up.
