    Any motorcycle riders?

    Accesories, ie: Helmets, tank bags, tires, pipes etc. Even then markup is 40% at best. In good times you can make a buck, in bad times you starve. It's not a business to get rich from. Too many assumptions here. Yes, new bikes depreciate horribly, but how bad does the dealer want to move...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    Cash, I never said that as AAA points out. The ZX10, and the CBR600 and the CBR1000 have more than enough power to do more than just pull you around. The ZX10 is an awesome wheelie bike. This is an interesting endeavor. The reality may be somewhat sketchy, but if you have a good dealer in...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    He's 5'6". I doubt his inseam will accomodate a bike with a seat height of more than 33". Anything is possible, depends on how bad he wants to ride that bike. A proficient rider would have no problem with only one foot touching the ground. Many riders don't even put a foot down at a stoplight...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    You're the one who's being silly: I maintain that in your suggested scenario the driver of a car will still say,"I didn't see him". I didn't just make that up. I have witnessed it happen. The MSF will point out that driver awareness on the part of the driver of a car is a primary goal in the...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    You're difficult to recommend a bike for. 230 to 240 lbs is a lot for anything smaller than 600cc to haul around, yet the three bikes I would initially recommend are the Kawasaki Ninja250R, Ninja500R, and the Yamaha TW200 (laugh all you want it's a great bike). These are all arguably too small...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    Cash, that depends on you. Seriously. I don't pretend to know what you'll be the most comfortable on. How tall are you? How much do you weigh? What kind of riding do you enjoy? Are you mechanically inclined? Do you enjoy doing maintenance? Where do you live? What will you use the bike for...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    Whatever...obviously you have little if any time in a saddle. I don't care if you are on a "quiet" japanese bike, with a helmet and the ambient wind noise you don't hear much of anything until it's too late. Touring bike riders have extravagant sound systems using earphones embedded into the...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    I realize you are trying to be funny. The truth is in many cases such as you suggest the driver of the car will still say,"I didn't see him!" You cannot control what the driver of the car does. You can only control your reaction to that. Many a rider cried defiantly dying on the operating...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    Respectfully disagree. You can't control whether you are seen or heard. You can control your awareness.

    Any motorcycle riders?

    No, I assume correctly since you're getting this information second hand. Go to MSF's site. MSF Again, to imply that instruction has anything to do with accident rate is disingenuous. That's like saying 80-90% of riders in an accident are right handed. Therefore if you want to ride you should...

    Any motorcycle riders?

    I'm sorry, but I just can't let this one go without rebuttal. To imply that the vast majority of motorcycle accidents are due to lack of professional riding instruction smacks of self righteous bullshit. I will assume then that you're speaking off the cuff and have no specific personal...

    Student Tasered after asking Kerry questions

    It depends on how the jury recieves it. I'm not a prosecutor, but I know damn well they look at the case and say,"can I get a conviction?" So perhaps we should say,"It's not a matter of guilt or innocence, rather whether you can be convicted or not."

    Student Tasered after asking Kerry questions

    How few people realize this, let alone acknowledge it. More precisely, it's about whether you can prove it in court.

    Would you buy mentoring from B&B ?

    I don't know that I would trust any shit from Jay. He doesn't know how to tell if it is meth, let alone how to smoke it. Meth has a salty taste -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I am having a hard time figuring out if I got skeeved. The...

    Friends and family giving you shit about trading..

    You think that's nagging? Try bringing 10 lbs of fine herb out of your "secret garden" every 3 to 4 months. The complaints about my trading are mild compared to my farming.
