You are giving a parking ticket, a person gets in the car and starts to drive away.....do you feel it necessary to stand in front of the car and risk your own well being over a ticket? Would you place your foot in front of the wheel of a car, and try to explain to the driver that he was about to run over your foot? It doesnt matter if the dumbass was driving a Ferrari or a pinto, the cops actions were unnecessary and put himself in harms way because he "had" to give a ticket. Attempting to punch out the guys window just put the icing on the "overly aggressive" cake.

Nice video!

The cops a dumbass, use your foot as a wheel chock and expect it to get run over. Someone needed to verify they had authority and went about it in an aggressive manner. Sure, most people are not that ignorant to "run over" someone elses foot, but you can't make that assumption. Get his license number, tell him to stop, if he doesn't call it in and get someone to pull him over.

sorry tiger, ended up staying up way too late last night and didnt get out of bed till after 10. It takes a looong time to get over going down. I still have trouble on blind ascending right hand turns and my accident was about 5 or 6 years ago if not longer. Glad your ride was uneventful. Post up next time you are heading out and I'll tag along.

ahhh too late at this point I'd have to prep the bike, throw it on the trailer, pick up gas, be there by 7:30....meaning leave here by 6. If I knew you were going yesterday I would have been ready. You going sunday too or just tomorrow?

man I'm jealous, need to pick up some leathers so I wont have any excuses not to do the same. Let me know how it goes.

Beaver Run?

whats the cost of racing? (by that I mean ignoring everything but fees)

so who all is in?

might be in, really need to dedicate some time to finding a new apartment

WHY??? I have a brand new pair of these sitting right beside me now. If I wasn't trying to move at the moment, I'd snag them up just to have more motorcycle stuff in my apartment. Great deal!

$3k is a little over what I'm looking to spend, unless it came with aftermarket goodies and spares. Thanks for relaying the for sale thread though.

isn't a jib a type of sail? anyway, beer is good

Looking for an 01-03 GSXR 600 to throw on the track. Already tracked out or a little beat....no problem. Toasted motor? Willing to work out a deal? Even better. Got something a little cracked up?(but with a straight frame) I dont mind putting in a little work to get it on the track. I'll be getting a new place sometime this month, need to find a project to work on after.

if the process is reversible and the broken down materials can be reused, you save on mass. Single purpose items could be made when required, broken down, and the materials used to make the next requirement.

wtf you need some lasagna to go along with that watermelon http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m9FRSghXhDM

^ would love to, but I'm looking for something dirt cheap so I dont have to care as much when it gets torn up

sounds like someone has a case of the mondays

ok, wont switch the vin...wouldnt removing the vin cause the exact same issue? really had never even considered any of this before.

re-post the video as much as you want, I'll watch it every time

hmmmm guess you guys have a point...the cop would have to be oddly interested to even check for a vin, and I could remove the plate or switch it with my 01, which I still have a title for. edit: didnt see the last post. I planned on running the vin, and if they didnt want that I wouldnt buy it. If the title was still held by a bank or something via a loan, that would come up on the search too, right?

Did the GP plus run small on you? I've got a pair of XL's that fit like a large in the other A* gloves. I can wear them, but anything more than a 30 minute ride and they make my hands numb.

I was thinking about picking up a bike that doesnt have a title. They claim its not stolen....but without a title who knows. It wouldn't ever go anywhere but on the track. A friend brought up a good point, if I got pulled over on the way to the track and the cop decided to run the bike's VIN, I'd be screwed out of the bike, correct? I'm guessing a bill of sale would be needed, but I doubt that will mean squat if they defaulted on a loan?

damn, sorry to hear about the rough ride today. Hope everyone came out OK and there was no major damage, but the totaled ZX10 seems to hint in the opposite direction. Flat front or rear? patch plugs(look like mushrooms) are the shit. The tire has to be pulled to install, but IMO there is no other option when it comes to repairing a bike tire.
