ride and shoot at the same time? that would be pretty cool. there was a vid a while back of french police doing shooting drills while riding their motorcycles. it was pretty sweet.

WE'RE THE HELLS SATANS OUT OF BAKERSFIELD!!!!!!1 i like when flanders wants to change the name and homer suggests "the christ punchers"

stoner sucks anway.

best time to ride the dragon IMO is go down on a weekday and get up EARLY and head out to ride. like 6 am or so. its usually pretty quiet early in the morning.

1. get a louder horn. 2. dont ride in their blind spot

Supporters of the idea seemed to consist for the most part of folks that either sold (loud) aftermarket pipes, or folks who road bikes with loud(er) aftermarket pipes. Yet these same folks could not provide any hard facts to back up their claim, the best they could come up with were rather vague statements about how if they make lots of noise "(car drivers) are sure as heck gonna hear me!" or claims that loud pipes give the other motorists ample warning of the approaching biker as they cruise up from behind. These statements seem to presuppose several assumptions that; 1) the other driver is not only going to hear the biker, but take the time to identify their actual location, 2) drivers in general rely on sound as much as vision to locate and avoid obstacles (in this case the motorcyclist), 3) the other driver gives enough of a damn about motorcyclists in the first place to do (1) and (2) above, and 4) that sounds emanating from a motorcycle's exhaust travel equally in all directions from the source.These seem, to me, to be a rather risky set of suppositions with little, if any, basis in fact. It is well documented that vision plays a much bigger role in operator safety than sound. Think about the last time you heard a siren, were you able to identify the location of the approaching vehicle by the sound alone or did you not in fact have to wait to make visual contact with it before you could precisely identify its location relative to you? Do proponents of loud pipes really believe that other motorists are going to concentrate on locating the approaching motorcycle and keep it in view till it is well past them and out of harms way? Where is the evidence to support such a claim? from a google search "loud pipes save lives"

i lost mine last week. thankfully i only rode about 3 miles so i retraced my route and found it.

im a pro at drunk driving.

im about as surprised as when clay aiken came out of the closet. http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/08/07/florida.mays.cocaine/

whenever i see a woman doing that, i give em a good blast on the horn. then she gets startled and smears lipstick all over her face and i lol all the way home.

i know its the meet and greet day, but just wondering if anyone is going up there sunday?

1. HP is a function of torque 2. if you ride in the city all day stop light to stop light, torque is where its at.

if you go to any of the big 4's websites, none of them list HP either.

yes there is. "few other factors contribute more to misunderstanding and prejudice against the motorcycling community than excessively noisy motorcycles" also "loud pipes save lives" is bollocks.

firefox + adblock = win

i think its a good start, but it needs work. for one, i dont think they should let cops or ambulance drivers do it. NO ONE should be able to do it. its basically like driving blind, and i doubt a cop can drive blind any better than anyone else. second, if studies show that texting and driving is as bad, or even worse, than drunk driving, then the penalties should be the same. DISCUSS

fuck them.

what do you get for a busa? i dunno how about more than 90 HP from a 1300cc? thats "80 cubic inches" for you harley folks

dont try to beat yellow lights guys. its just not worth it.

if i knew he had pattern of lying constantly, i wouldnt believe him in the first place. i dont even think i would be friends with someone like that honestly.

that sucks hopefully someone chased them down and got a plate number or something? if i saw someone hit someone and take off, id definitely follow them.
