lol... ummm...

In the clip I see him looking down, but I can't see what he's looking at. I'm sure the cyclist had a better view in real life. Right after as the officer reaches for his shoulder it's not a cell-phone, but his radio. Doesn't make it right, but sorta kinda karma to the cyclist who we all know...

Arogal, you won't be disappointed. He has plenty of experience and really enjoys doing it.

I recently used JSFlashtune to 'flash tune' the ECU on my Fz8. He works with the guy from Speedlab for use of the dyno. JSFlashtune does the ECU tuning route, while the guy from SpeedLab does tuning through application of PowerCommanders, etc.. I'm happy. Nothing bad to say. It took all of...

After a proper wash; and wax (protectant), I'll use Meg's Quick Detailer and a good quality microfiber. This only removes general dust and minor bug splats (carefully). Within a few days of the first wax coat I'll put on a second. I'll also maintain a clear windscreen with Invisible Glass, and...

I agree on the use of the word, 'accident." That is why I pardoned my use and made note of yours in the original post. More an incident - I agree. Pure, true, accidents rarely, rarely happen. Word use is not this debate, however. I hear ya, and I can appreciate the examples in the aviation...

Those two words are exactly what the difference is between the two scenarios you posted, Blackfin. Your two examples are not that similiar. As others pointed there are rules set out that clearly define the level of liability, and accountability to drivers in scenario one. To prove negligence...

Look up through Facebork or InstaGran "JSFLASHTUNE". He works with SpeedLab (a mobile Dyno). I spent the $500 to have the bike on the Dyno and get the tune custom for my particular bike. Alas, each engine is always unique in some manner. He uses Flashtune as the company. I know there is...

This can happen on any motorcycle of any size, shape and colour. It's the rider. It's the bike. In fact, you stating the "rider got too comfortable" suggests (in a way) that the guy on the 600cc Supersport has been learning faster than you. Rather, your statement is more stereotypically true...

Exactly. You're actually shooting yourself in the foot with any money-for-value argument with talking about 'speciality tools' too. lol. You don't have an interest to deal with the car, but do with the bike - so you'll spend money on the bike. You'd also agree that the money spent on the...

Well, yes and no. Over the long-term of doing it yourself things like a jack and stands or ramps pay for themselves, especially if you're gonna use them across multiple vehicles or use them to do other maintainence - not just oil changes. You can NEVER get around paying someone labour vs...

Yeah. lol. I have no idea what I'm on about. Good luck. GTAM cracks me up.

LOL - I think you answered your own question. As the other guy stated. For those without a family friend mechanic it IS worth doing yourself, because you avoid labour costs.

Also, any conversation or incriminating statements you made prior to ANY OFFICIAL caution by the officer as to why you're being investigated and that it could incriminate you is NOT ADMISSIBLE in court. Just don't forget it's not the officer's job to prove you were speeding. It's your job to...

You're best option is to delay the process so much that it gets tossed because it took so long. Take it right to first court date, and say you want disclosure and get it postponed. Second time up, tell them you need to find legal services. Get it postponed. Third time up, tell them you still...

If you can imagine like many electrical connections on motor vehicles, computers and motorcycles the connector clips in to the socket. Portions of the the cut-out, molded plastic part of the ECU where the large electrical connectors would clip in to was chipped off/snapped/broken so the...

Me connecting the battery backward fried the ECU. I know, seems odd considering a plethora of other electrical bits you'd think should have taken the fall before the ECU. With that said one of the sales guys at Burlington Cycle offered two anecdotes of past bikes that had fried ECUs from...

To put this to bed - final update: Replacing the ECU with a brand new one solved the problem. Bike works.

People don't randomly brake-check people. So do tell us, Darin, what did you do to piss him off. He has a one year old son and that's how he's riding! Too bad the reporter didn't probe Darin's mind-set around riding his motorcycle so close to the other car so as to smash the mirror or punch...

I'll say what likely many are thinking. She'd not have crashed if she just wasn't going so fast. That seemingly is a suitable conclusion to the words displayed in the video at the beginning. So, I'm sure she was well aware of the risks and made her choice. Unfortunately, it's too late to figure...
