I've been riding with a chunk of my left rear fairing missing since last autumn. I'll replace it at some point but mostly because I don't want the rest of it falling while I ride not because I'm afraid someone might think my bike isn't the prettiest princess on the road.
My 18 months winds up November 1st... Surprisingly Learning Curves still does M2 Exits that month so I might actually go for it. But yeah like emefef said you have 5 years before it expires, 18 and 22 months are just the minimum time before you are allowed to do the test.
For me it has more to do with not wanting to have to wait for the bus (and ride the bus with its huge backpack wearing morons and the ladies with SUV sized strollers blocking the doors or the two seat using asswipes.) if I can avoid it rather than just wanting to ride.
Plus I didn't notice any...
Welp I broke down and too her out of the laundry room and put on 3 layers of clothing below my gear, she had a bit of trouble starting and figuring out it actually had gas, probably because the tank wasn't full when I stored it since I got caught by the first snow but anyway after a bit of...
My bike has been taunting me from the laundry room for the past two weeks so I hope I can ride it a bit tomorrow.
I just hope I put enough stabilizer in my gas tank in December. Not sure what happens if I didn't
Great, now I'm somehow imagining a stray rock getting pulled up by the rear wheel and landing square in the passengers giggity parts or rain water for that matter
The moment I saw the colored taxis I knew it was going to be bad, Thailand is notorious for having completely insane moped and motorcycle riders. It's completely normal there to see 50+ motorcycles lane splitting at 20-30+ km/h with practically no gear and if you don't follow you get ******* at...
So a few days ago in the 15-30 minutes it took me to do some groceries at the mall one of two things happened, either;
A) Someone tried to steal my bike and was stopped by a combination of my handlebars being locked and my gorilla alarm scaring the **** out of the entire neighborhood.
B)...
Still going strong, no fancy heated gear for me though so I'm just onion-ing it up. Hoping to ride it till the forecast predicts snow, then store it inside the house since the parking garage doesn't have anywhere to plug in a battery tender and I don't feel like taking out the battery since I...
Considering I've seen police pass me at 120 with no lights on when I was doing 100 in the right hand lane; Not trying to arrest the other folk who were going the same speed as they were, I think going 120 on the highway is less of an issue than people who are actively driving in a dangerous manner.
Meh doubtful, I have my headphones on most of the time anyway with the volume low enough that I can hear the bike and my surroundings in a muted fashion so different exhaust wouldn't mean much to me.
Even off the bike it's rare I have my headphones off; having them on keeps people from doing...
I am a noob and I stopped looking at the pavement by the end of the MSC and I stopped panicking after the pavement came by and said "hi I miss you looking at me, let me give you a hug" on my 5th day of riding.
Now I'm just working on taking turns without going a bit wide or slowing down, been...
I use Sygic for android, offline map with voice navigation, speed limits and if you do decide to enable data it can give you weather info, traffic as well as crowd sourced accident and police location.
