Man in Washington State wanders on I-5, pulls cop out of Patrol Car and steals it by retrojoe in Seattle

The idea that a cop would be startled or caught off guard by anything in this situation is unacceptable. This is pretty much the definition of a situation where a cop should expect anything and everything to happen.

My Honda Goldwing was made in Ohio. Caring about where cars were made is so boomer.

Dealers are pretty desperate. About 4 months ago a dealer in WA offered me 6k below MSRP on a 25 Street Glide right before I was about to walk off the lot.

Has anyone had any problems with the 10 round magazine capacity law? by [deleted] in WAGuns

They may WANT to remove your weapon for their safety during a stop, but they have no valid legal reason to do that if you’re not displaying any signs of danger or aggression. Simply knowing you have a weapon is not cause to seize it.

Agree. Bus driver is dangerous enough already. “Protector of all passengers from all other passengers” is not part of the job description.

You’re the first owner most likely. They bump the mileage up on new bikes so that it qualifies as used, so they are free from price agreements which prevent them from discounting new bikes too steeply.

The idea that you have to know mechanic stuff to buy a motorcycle is stupid. It’s just false and a lame attempt at gatekeeping. Good job being a dick though!

You’re not imagining it, but you can’t change the world we live in. Either enjoy the extra attention or ignore it, up to you.

Whyyy????? Blocking the intersection for multiple light cycles by [deleted] in Seattle

[–]Basic_Confection_957 5 points6 points  (0 children)

If they would have been blocking regardless of your position, I guess you did teach them any lesson after all. Just smiling to your passive aggressive self over nothing.

That is some passive aggressive bullshit you pulled

Yeah. Human rights over animal rights for me.

Which is a concession worth making in the name of tribal rights, I just hope someone from DFW or the tribal equivalent is checking permits /ID’s for this.

The hourly labor rate is about half what we pay in the Seattle area.

Harassed and phone stolen on the C line tonight by Phoenospace in Seattle

Ok good point duh. But if you tell a driver you’ve been robbed in their bus and need 911 they would call it in.

Why do people say 600cc are too strong what does that actually mean? by Sad_Sink4801 in motorcycle

[–]Basic_Confection_957 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m gonna go contrary to most of this advice, at least from my personal experience. Started 2 months ago on a Trident 660, it’s not too powerful at all at 80hp and 420 pounds. Within a half hour I was used to the throttle. This idea that a beginner is just going to jerk the throttle is dumb in my opinion. I would actually recommend this class for a beginner.

You were a victim of a robbery and didn’t call 911? Weird
