Pencil me in for this, too. Some things are just too good to pass up. But, I'm still tentative.

I (and maybe you do also and just are offering your quip) enjoy a different perspective. I'm too occupied right now to reseach details but I think there are others (largely outside of active thread FZ6 posters) who are bringing up salient points. Italians burned Giordano Bruno centuries ago for...

All this business that cops let get out of control.... You know what's probably the result? Probably similar to how politicians and then law enforcement deal with crazy drunken revelers during certain holiday periods here on area beaches, river parkways, lakes. They just end up banning alchohol...

I wonder what motorycycle forum on which these so-called stunt riders coordinated their ride . Anybody know? Must be a pretty lively discussion wherever it is. This incident has probably really set back motorcycling back to the 50's/60's when the public largely viewed motorcycle group rides as...

Surprised that the SUV driver isn't being charged with assault with a deadly weapon or something. That's pretty gruesome running over a person on bike. Even Chinese tanks stopped in Tiannamen Square. As far as the bikers, what a setback for the sportbike enthusiasts.

The local mosquito control dep't regularly issues its advisories to wear long sleeve shirts and long pants outside---no matter if it's in the middle of scorching hot summer afternoon/evening. Safety gone amok. ATGATT? No thank you!

That's kool but I'm still not at ease in these situations (even if driver "looks" aware) and don't take my hands off controls---too concerned about having to make an emergency brake/horn blast.

I imagine---if not already----someday those GoPros, etc., will also record lean angles, speed, and other data. I agree that the video doesn't do justice (looks conservative) regarding the actual speed when taking on those turns.

Yeah, I'd like to know what exact vehicle code violation it is. This a cop making up laws (or, as MG says, you or he being an AH). I suggest calling the dep't and ask for what vehicle code violation that constitututes. Did you get name or badge of officer?

Ever summer, despite all the pleas, warnings, new laws, finger wagging, etc,. regarding the safety of wearing life vests in water, I don't wear one nearby in the American River where I've been cooling off all my life. I deem the risk of drowning acceptable and don't like the ever more growing...

Has anyone NOT have had at least one credit card closed and and then re-issued due to fraud? It's getting ridiculous. I got my first "chip" credit card recently, Does this mean that I have to wear one of those tin can wallets to guard against RF (I don't remember the term) hackers? Geesh.

Too funny. Myself, I usually wait for them to initiate it unless they look "waveable." By far, it's the HD riders who are the ones who will blow off my wave and ignore me. They are a part of elite riders who don't need to acknowledge wannabees. It's laughable to me how anybody can get so...

You and Wavex should sink a beer sometime.

Main thing I hate about clicking "buy" on-line is the no dressing room available to try on item. Even with the on-line sizing charts sometimes provided, it's problematic with me, and that's with ordering one size up (to be safe). My pair of mesh riding pants, for example. Even one size up and...

Have you ever scooted around Key West, Florida on one of those rental Honda 50cc's? I wore shorts, shoes, and a tank top (No helmet required). Think that's bad? Others wore jusk bikini or swim suit without shoes. But, hey that's Key West----it's like a giant beach party. Some on this forum will...

I have a Scorpio i500 alarm and have had it for about 5 years. I'm pleased with it and use it regularly. Intereresting new alarm.

Yeah, winter is real close around here.;) Only 38 ;)celsius (100 farenheit) today in Sacramento, California. I actually LUV hot weather. The weather her is four seasons but, NO snow during winter, just occassional freezes. My FZ6 says that it LIKES the weather around here. It's similar to...

I would've by-passed the convenience store and, instead, found the nearest bartender ;)

Wow. Looks like a substantial makeover. Curious---was bike knocked over and run over? If only knocked over, that's staggering the amount of damage! I take it even the fuel tank was damaged? Nice looking scheme now. I sometimes worry about my parking lot space choice.

Don't have too much fun doing the "Border Patrol" route. Meanwhile, NorCal burns and fills the mountain air with layers of smoke. Uggh.
