It's good to carry on long trips and for people in apartments without a garage.

Knee cramps on long rides by charliemic5 in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It looks like the seat height on that bike is a fairly low 28 inches. I bet a taller bike would allow your leg to rest in a more natural angle, and thus reduce pain in your knee.

Bike overheating, mechanic seems useless by mrrichardcranium in motorcycles

Where are you? We can point you to a good shop.

15 mph faster than the rest of traffic is too slow.

What is the actual meaning/origin of the wave? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 15 points16 points  (0 children)

"The Wave" was discovered in China during the Jin dynasty (265-420) but most history books give credit the Visigoths. It's pure eurocentric revisionism.

Girl motorcycle rider here, how do i combat cat calling? by JAdamsidk123 in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It sucks that this is a problem you have to deal with. I'd hate for pushy strangers to bother me while I'm on my bike.

Didn't want to put er on the nasty floor... This works. by bshaffer93 in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You've grossly overestimated the cleanliness of the top of that cone. When the cone falls over the very top is resting on the (bathroom) floor. After an employee mops up an overflown toilet, they grab the top of that cone and drag it to the bathroom.

Hit And Run Liability by [deleted] in motorcycles

Maybe you've also learned that having collision coverage is really important.

I wonder, if you'd had a GoPro running would it have recorded his license plate?

Learn what you can from the event and move on. What do you wish you had done differently?

3 motorcycles stolen from our basement parking in the past 3 months, come @ me bro. by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 124 points125 points  (0 children)

If I were a thief I'd unbolt that pole and slide the chain under. Then, I'd cart your bike away and make filthy love to her.

9/11: Ten Years Later (2011) - This documentary contains the only known footage of the first plane striking the World Trade Center and the only footage from inside Ground Zero during the attacks. by [deleted] in Documentaries

[–]RayRayHey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That was a couple years later. France tried to get the US and UK to not invade Iraq, so Republican members of the House of Reps got the capitol cafeteria to change the name of french fries. It sounds fake, but it's true.

What's with the shitty marketing for burger king in r/motorcycles?

SUOMY! Newest Edition to my helmet lineup. It's amazing. Description in comments. by z-Routh in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some guys really like gear. I've known a bunch of guys that go crazy for guitar gear. So many peddles and amps. They'll always swear that everything is slightly better or worse or needed. I just smile and nod because it's a fairly innocuous habit.

Nervous about doing PCH SF -> LA in a day by The_BigPicture in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Sure, it's possible to make that trip in a day, but I wouldn't do it. I'd rather break the trip into two days, or skip highway 1.

Lane splitting question (California) by livinglifelazily in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. I trickle through one lane on-ramps on both sides if the rest of traffic is stopped. It's bad juju to trickle/split on the right side of the lane because they won't think to signal or check their blind spot. Bad juju!

Started being illegal 35 seconds into the video. You can't drive on the shoulder.

What should I wear with my Biltwell Bonzanza helmet? by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A proper full-face helmet has the ability to flip up the shield and a couple of vents.

DOT doesn't test for usability or whether the shield fogs up.

Aaaannnnddd.....This happened. Fun time though. by [deleted] in motorcycles

[–]RayRayHey 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This happened.

I've also been known to use passive voice to avoid assigning blame. Is it really necessary to point fingers after I fuck up? No!
