When is the n00b going to have time to ride? All of my coworkers that are WoWers never do anything but go to work, then come home and go on quests...

Maybe it'd be more useful for him to work on getting a motorcycle as an epic mount in the game?

Whatever you do, you should consider pre-painting scuffs on both side fairings.

Save you the hassle of dropping it.

What's your problem Inya?

Metallic orange has to be dressed with the right amount of black.

Agreed, that's why my frame and wheels are black.

Michigan is a no-fault state... so rulez are different there too. Ask me how I know.

Research the ORC statute you were charged with - if you can prove you're not guilty of everything in the statute, then fight it. I also raise the BS flag on them HAVING to cite anyone.

If not, then take your lumps. If I was the guy who got hit, I'd probably want a police report too because I'm not gonna be the idiot that finds out later that there was more damage to my vehicle than a quick 2min inspection on the roadside showed, not to mention the guys names/insurances of the people who hit me were fake.

Likwid's wallet hurts a little bit, but otherwise everyone is fine.

I missed all this -- where's the rest of the thread? Ya know, the "instigation" / "troll bait" part?

What's the takeaway? Techguy has thin skin? Sam tested, motherf*(ker approved.

Better get good gear then duder -- make sure you get A* gear that's been internet tested.

Sorry Bro, we were late because of her. She totally came unprepared, we had to put air in her tires, to only discover she left the house without a plate on her bike. She waited there for about four hours, to her friend could bring the plate out to her.

Just bustin' chop where chops are to be busted. It really wasnt a big deal for me, I wasn't on a schedule per se, like some others

And my favorite part was Pauly walking up during the "One lane road" stoplights and wanting to have a political debate -- pointing out that it's Obama's fault that they're working on the roads.

That and when he punched Likwid.

Ohh, and Sniper reminded me...

the gas station in Brecksville, I spent some time there too.

I think I spent more time at the gas stations in Bolivar, Barnesville, and Clarington than I did riding.

:jokingbutalmostserious:

I told you fucktards I was slow why do you think i tricked you into the lead for a bit Justin LOL!

I was 100% fine with the pace. Like Pauly said, it wasn't "shit your pants" fast, but I wasn't bored either.

Pauly was definitely braking more on the ride home than you were on the way down, but the route wasn't identical either. So, I'd call it a wash.

Personally, I find myself riding more like Pauly's riding style than yours. But regardless, all braking (front/rear/engine or otherwise) should be done prior to entering the turn on the street. I caught myself kissing the rear brakes midturn to keep from running up on you Mike, but that was my fault for not leaving enough space.

I'm sure your engine braking isn't the same as mine and there's a lot of variation there going into and out of the turns.

traaaaaaaaaail braking

Chrome.

All chrome.

Then Likwid can't possibly miss it.

Well, we took the "speedtriple detour" so we backtracked a little bit.

My money was on you as the safest rider out there...

I wish I would've seen the look on your face when we rolled by you on 77

That's why GM is going under, they've got all the engineers designing expensive surveillance equipment in all their vehicles that they're not charging you for so everything stays hush-hush. Or maybe it's all subsidized by the gov't, and they're ONLY in bed with GM because they know that only people that buy new or used GM vehicles are POIs for the gov't.

Bunch of conspiracy theorists in here.

oh yea, and the only color I'd go is Sunset Orange Metallic

I knew you had at least one redeeming quality I liked.

Not sure how I missed this. But I will thank Justin (JRMMiii) for not letting me know about it.

like you ride the street anyway

This ---^

Besides, you didn't miss much. Huge cluster...group.

Buncha Mj's in this thread.

Fab -- looks like it'll be you, me, and twisted12 (Rob) at CircleK here in about a 1/2 hr.

Buncha sorry sacks when it comes to making the big show.

And I texted you back... so hopefully you have mine now.

Not scared, it'd take horse tranquilizers to knock my large ass out.
