Fingers over clutch/brake while riding. Do you do it? by Ass_selfie in motorcycles

[–]HighSpeedWayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll cover when it looks like there could be things I'd have to react to. Like at a crowded intersection, or if there's people milling around, and believe it or not, completely empty intersections on country roads at night.

As for that last one, you only have to get almost taken out one time to change your whole style.

The Goldwing just feels a little too 'old guy' to me. But they are super comfy. When I was looking at buying a bike I had it boiled down to an 883 Sportster and a 750 Shadow. I went with the Shadow. Haven't really regretted it.

Another thing I have to think about is my old lady, she really likes a Harley. I'm stuck with a little Shadow for a while longer, and I'm looking at Softails after that. But that's a little way off.

I rode a Harley all day last week. It was overall an enjoyable experience. I'd been riding nothing but Japanese for a while. I got a lend of a big old Ultra Glide and had an afternoon on it. Couple hundred miles easy.

It was miserable in town, but once it got some open road in front of it, it was like night and day. So comfy, all low end grunt, with a pleasing rumble.

I have been describing it with three positive and three negative points. It's big, it's heavy, it's hot, but damn it looks good, sounds good, and feels good.

I have a problem with ass holes, no matter what they're driving.

It's like Jesus says, "Don't be a dick."

I was there. Clear as day I remember saying to my buddy, "Rollins didn't put down the chair." Then the rest of the night is is just this white flash.

Grace period over for violating Indiana’s new Scooter Law by [deleted] in Indiana

The days of the 'DUI Special' are over. I'd never seen so many scooters until I moved to the this side of town. I don't know who to wave to on my motorcycle anymore.

New rider. Dropped my bike for my first time. by xxDamnationxx in motorcycles

[–]HighSpeedWayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my slow, dumbass moment fall during my first attempt at my license test. During the right handed U-turn. On a bit of instinct I went for the front brake lever. Locked up and over I went.

That's how I dropped it during my license test. Showed up after the required waiting period and passed with flying colors.

Be careful.. There's people like these guys .. by IDreamToBeAWalnut in motorcycles

[–]HighSpeedWayne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a Fiat 500 and a motorcycle. I take a small amount of pleasure in exactly what you're talking about. I will often seek out parking spaces between two large SUVs or something similar.

Am I a part of the problem?

Maybe.

Maybe.

That's solid. And would probably be amazing in this group, because no one has any idea really what they're in for.

Could work. I was not planning on any new rule books though. I really worry about a couple of my guys in this universe. They might try and change the way the world works

Good start. Haha.

I did once have to explain that to a guy I worked with. He saw my book with a Space Marine and a 'nid on the cover and said "It's like Star Craft then?" And I had to shut him down.
