Thanks for the input the GoPro has a better picture I thought about mounting it to the crash bar on the Harley but do not know if it can take the vibration when the bike is idling

I am going to buy a Video Camera for my bike I have narrowed it down to a GoPro HD and a Replay XD 1080. I would like any input on both pros and cons I am leaning more toward the Replay XD the GoPro HD looks like it would create a lot of drag on my helmet Thanks.

Look up Ghost Rider from Russia he made quite a few videos but i think he was killed doing it. I think this is the same guy http://youtu.be/8PlMMigCdKU The most dangerous part of a motorcycle is the nut that connects the seat to the handlebars

More like a demo derby http://youtu.be/R3COiz7qt8Y

The guy never learned to not show your rank in a combat zone the snipers will take you out every time.

I remember a time when military personal were asked not were their uniforms when off duty because we would get spit on and called names. Most of you are too young to remember these threads for whatever reason bring back those memories Drop it move on and if possible delete them. Pick Better Battles.

OP There is a good reason you see so many old riders on Harleys and 90% of them all started out on sport bikes It’s all about the comfort.

No matter how much you save you will wish you had saved more. It’s very hard to put money aside when you are starting out (young new family kids) Start putting at least 10% of your pay away and any raises you get every other raise you will be surprised how much you will have saved 30 years from now. If you work for a company that matches a % of your 401k max it out that’s free money. Also if you can have the money taken out automatically every pay so you don’t see it you will get use to not having that money and not miss it. If you can it’s also good to have that money in a place that make you jump through a few hoops to get it out that makes it less tempting to take it when you really do not need it.

Have you looked in to getting the old ones reworked

Look I am not a religious person god and I have not seen eye to eye in more than 40 years since the loss of my oldest son I thought the poem was a nice thought since I understand how the parents are feeling right now. The thing about no saving you was meant as a joke Enough said

If guns kill people how in the world does anyone at a gun show make it out alive?

Well I guess there is no hope of saving you :lol:

The next big push you will see in gun control will be to make it illegal for a private citizen to sell any firearms all sales will have to be thru a gun dealer. The goal is to get every firearm that is sold registered.

Sorry I did a search for it and did not find it

After If it comes to pass you are forced to shoot someone do not feel bad. When the police come just tell them a guy threatened you with deadly force and you were forced to fire. I know there are bad police out there in some parts of the country who don't support self defense. I can't help you with that. Do not talk to them until you have your attorney present. Now most young guys don't have an attorney on retainer and you may have no idea who to call. That is OK. You will figure it out but in the mean time don't talk about what happened other than to say you were forced to fire. You don't have to be an asshole just remember wait for your attorney. Hopefully you will not give a statement for a couple days. Remember if you are put in jail that doesn't mean you are charged. Most places can hold you 48 or 72 hours on a felony before charging you or letting you go. Breath deep and get an attorney. Expect to never get your gun back. You may get it back one day but maybe not. Do not buy expensive guns for the street. Buy yourself a nice sporting gun if you want a nice gun. Keep your street guns basic. The factory Model 10 Smith and the GI 45 have done a lot of work over the years and aren't fancy. Worlds We all live in different worlds. My world is filled with felons and gang members. Violence is common place. No one would be surprised if one of their friends called and said they shot a hold up man at a place of business or parking lot. In the past when I made calls the fact that the guy who is beating his GF is also on parole for 2nd degree murder flavored my world. You may live in a smaller, less violent place where shootings seldom occur and it would be a rare to shoot a hold up man. I envy you and will be moving to a place like your town as soon as I can. But be advised no matter where you are a hold man is going to be about the same. Whether he is a home boy or a guy who just exited the interstate into your town and needs some quick money. He is going to have a vicious streak and no regard for your life. Treat him like he treats you. Giving them the money, doing what they say, all that may work but there is no guarantee. If you have never read Jeff Cooper's book The Principles of Personal Defense I suggest you order a copy immediately. It is a short book but summarizes a lot of important things. Last year we had a trial here regarding an armed robbery that occurred. Three or four guys took a young couple from a parking garage near a college out by some railroad tracks where they raped, shot, and beat them. Their lives will never be the same. The lesser thugs all turned on the trigger man at trial. The trigger man's statement in the paper was after all that had happened he felt like he was a victim. Think about that. That is the mindset you are up against.
