    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    And around and around and around we go.. He claimed to be with it enough to state (according to the OP) that it 'maybe had $30.00 in it'. The primary thing of importance to consider, is that he had someone elses property in his possession, obtained by theft, as captured on camera. He's...

    Pet dog on a sportbike?

    No personal experience with the leaners, though i'd like to do one some day. Gerry Kramer here on the board built up his own BMW / Velorex based leaner a little while back. That is probably the most economic way of going about it, if you know your way around a well equipped shop. He put his...

    Pet dog on a sportbike?

    Sit down while you price them out - both for initial sidecar cost and specialized mounting/setup. By the time you are done, you've spent the equivalent of a couple decent used cars. Not trying to discourage you, but setting a sportbike up for a sidecar *correctly and safely* requires many...

    Pet dog on a sportbike?

    A german shepard? .. i can't even fathom that as a concept of a dog being on a motorcycle. Most varieties of dog that i've seen on a bike itself have been of the tea-cup variety, or small breeds. No way would i even consider taking a 75-100 lb dog with me, unless in the sidecar - and...

    Moving Out questions

    Your budget would work if you moved to, say, Hamilton. Plenty of shared accomodation houses/batchelor apartments for $4-500 /mo. Hell, my mortgage in this town is $550.00 /mo to live in a townhouse, that i rattle around in all by my lonesome. Gotta have that garage.. $120.00 a week for an...

    Sons of anarchy

    If the Hoodie has the bottom rocker that claims a 'territory' .. that's where the problem lies. Even if it is for a ficticious club, it could cause personal problems for you, with an anally retentive 1%er(s) that has a chapter in that territory (ie. California). That said .. why would someone...

    Post your first motorized vehicle.

    First Car: 1974 Mercury Comet, white with ****** brown vinyl roof. Very similar to photo below. And my 'first motorsickle' was a 1966 Honda C65

    Wear your gear... ***WARNING: GRAPHIC***

    He already stated the scenario earlier in the thread. The body has the ability through the shock reaction/adrenaline to pinch off blood loss from major wounds at least temporarily, by constricting the arteries leading away from the core of the body and keeping blood flow to the core of the...

    Im buying a truck..

    Sure, but in very limited quantities from the sounds of it, and possibly with the whole importation/dealer arrangements in limbo/legal issues? I just checked http://mahindratruckforum.com/ via google.. not a lot scanned over, but lots of red flags with forum titles about three class-actions...

    Scooter hate

    My scooter pipe (aftermarket) was so loud, i had to quieten it down substantially with some internal modding. It generated a heckuva lot of noise, coming from only 70cc, that's for darn sure. I've got two of these Honda Passports. I first started out riding on an ancestor of these in the mid...

    Some Traffic Ticket Fighters Are Stupid & Incompetent (Cousin Charged)

    This is going back some years, but this accident sounds exactly like the same circumstances in which my Grandfather had an accident. If you don't see the pedestrian about to cross, it's either carelessness in failing to observe pedestrians about to cross, or a physical/visual impairment at...

    Border crossing prob.From the other side

    Sounds like buddy got his self-righteous entitlement to a pity-party attitude, properly border-checked. I've heard of far worse stories coming from people going across the border in the opposite direction, who've had no real legal issues, or displaying any overt behavorial indicator's of...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    Anything brought to this forum table is nothing but suppositions. There is little in the way of fact beyond this. OP's buddy got drunk. OP's buddy got light-fingered. OP's buddy got caught red-handed on camera. OP's buddy when caught red-handed returned purse. OP's buddy claims he was...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    How many of us go out to seriously buy a bike with nothing more than a promise to pay? I'd reckon more than a few of us go shopping with a fair quantity of cash in hand, and if it's a private sale deal - cash talks, BS walks.. I know i have a bankroll in my wallet/pocket for just that...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    IF the victim lost $1000.00 .. what recourse is he/she going to have to get that money back? As far as i know the victims compensation fund compensates for violent crimes only, not financial losses due to theft, fraud, etc. The court may order restitution be paid to the victim by the convicted...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    Your mamma obviously didn't raise you too well.. Pcked up a purse, and considers it 'found money' that he is 'entitled to'? Drunk, sober or high - i've never considered someone elses property as good as my own, much less a purse belonging to the opposite gender. Is this what you do with lost...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    My hackneyed saying, or your correct saying - both work in this case.

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    No, i'd call it being on the sharp end of the saying "Do unto others, as they do unto you". Not that i would do it, or have ever done it, but i can certainly understand why someone would do it in retaliation. As Adrath has already stated, this would not have happened if OP's buddy had kept...

    What to do, potential criminal charges.

    Whether the perp in this case had a blackout or not, i think is irrevelant. Alcohol simply removes the inhibitions to pre-existing behavior and personality traits. Once a thief, always a thief. Alcohol simply made the perp too stupid to get away with it, in not recognizing CCTV surveillance...

    Finished project - 1976ish Honda CT70 with Lifan 140cc Pitbike

    Current small video of my three small Hondas on the driveway. Sorry for the jerkyness of the video - trying to video and walking with a gimpy leg at the same time generally has poor results :( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H4H2ePL7Zg8
