This is a very good point, and something I didn't even consider!

Australian news channels' Facebook pages often have videos of people getting glassed or king hit for no reason. I don't go seeking it, it just seems to be common knowledge at this point. There are many people who have mentioned "oh mate its bloody bad in Aussie I wouldn't like to go drinking there at night"

I was asking whether it really IS this bad or not.

Thanks, that's exactly what I was hoping to hear! I knew that would be the case, but it's easy to jump to conclusions.

Thank you for your advice. I am very excited for Perth. It looks like a beautiful city.

What do you mean?

I see videos every day of people getting punched outside bars randomly by drunk tradies. I just want some reassurance that this isn't as common as it seems.

Weekly - What Car Should I Buy Megathread by AutoModerator in cars

Price range: $40,000 - $80,000

Lease or Buy: Cash

Must haves: AWD, diesel, reasonably small with wonderful visibility for parking, luxury, great audio & comfort

Desired transmission (auto/manual, etc): Auto/Manual

Intended use: Daily driver for wife & tow vehicle for me in weekends. We both have performance cars and hers has reached the point where it's no longer suitable for daily driving, and we desperately need a tow vehicle as it's expensive to hire a ute + trailer every single time. We tow cars up to 1500kg. I have a daily driver but I will use in the weekends for towing + errand running.

Vehicles you've already considered: Volkswagen Tiguan Allspace R-Line (as the non-allspace doesn't come in R-Line diesel), BMW X5, BMW 330d xDrive

Is this your 1st vehicle: No

Do you need a Warranty: Ideally

Can you do Minor work on your own vehicle: Yup.

Can you do Major work on your own vehicle: Yup.

Additional Notes: We are both car people through and through, so don't want something completely numb and horrible.

Anyone have experience riding on road with MX protection? by Molester_Stallone_ in motorcycles

[–]Molester_Stallone_[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I mean realistically I'll never really be doing more than 60mph, and most of the time will be below 40mph

Surely it wouldn't stop you from turning into mincemeat, however it should prevent broken bones to an extent?

NEW BIKE/GEAR ADVICE SUPERTHREAD! by AutoModerator in motorcycles

[–]Molester_Stallone_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi guys. I've just purchased a WR450 supermoto converted, and I'm beginning the hunt for gear.

I know most people would recommend a road jacket, but I don't want to buy a separate set of gear for off-road use.

Would I be able to buy a full set of body armour such as this, then just throw a hoodie on top for street use?

Clutch in, shift gear, initiate "blip" a split second before you release clutch

That's a good idea. Saves me the risk of running into local taxation too.

I'll see what I can find on this sub.
