Shortly after he cut into traffic and nearly greased the underside of a rather large 4x4.

Someone needs to explain to him how helmets work

So who's at fault here? I don't ride on a track but I understand that those accidents are caused by one person or the other not holding their line. I can't tell what's going on exactly though.

I dunno, it kind of looks like the middle guy clipped the leader's rear tire with his front. I couldn't tell if the leader looked back because he heard something or because he felt something

e: oops just read Dzus' post

I don't see how talking about straight razors and craft breweries like Wes Anderson is creative??

Well to start you have to be open to the idea that the motorcycle was created as a result of the surrounding backstory, which he was talking about.

Not really defending it cause I don't give a poo poo about any of this, but JUSS SAYIN'

What a loving sack of poo poo... I really would love to see what happened next. Pretty sure I would have kicked his door off and smashed his windshield for good measure. Probably tack his smug loving face onto the list as well.

I'm leaning more towards that guy is just a complete retard, since it looked like he was trying to get out (for whatever reason)

He's pretty clearly putting his foot and body out of the car when the biker hits it. The man's a retard, but not a malicious one.

Yeah, I just meant I wasn't getting the "smug rear end in a top hat" vibe from the vid

I still help the dummies, I don't hate them. Don't take offense. One day y'all will look back on this time and say "drat, I was a dummy"

Part of being a dummy is not realizing that you and others are dummies

Being a self aware dummy is the worst :smith:

Hahahaha.

I think the bike looks quite ugly but it's fantastic that HD is doing it. Hopefully it will kick the other majors into action.

I think the only ugly design choice is the front turn signals/mirrors but those are always things that can be changed out for aftermarket stuff anyway. The rest of it looks pretty dang sleek. Besides the ugly logo on the tank

Seeing how NZ might as well be another Australian state, I'm going to answer this and say yes. It's acceptable in Australia as well. As are many things, because we're not uptight twats. Of course, any insult like that (retard, gay, human being, etc.) are avoided if the person is actually retarded or gay*. Sometimes. Mostly we just don't care.

*Most of my friends that are gay don't give a poo poo if you call them gay/human being/queer, etc. as an insult. In fact, they do it the most.

I'd want to live in aussie land but they also hate asians

Speaking of PR3's/PR4's, I just got a PR4 for the front of my bike and it's got a very similar but not identical tread pattern to a PR3. In the press stuff it says that PR4's have bevelled sipe edges to stop cupping. What the gently caress is cupping, and how do bevelled sipe edges prevent it? I never noticed any unusual wear on my PR3's despite having ridden on them for around 10,000km's.

This is all I could find: http://www.rattlebars.com/tirewear/index.html#CUPPING

Siping cuts slits, called sipes, at 90� angles across the tread, providing thousands of gripping edges for better traction and stopping power.

I agree. That would bug the hell out of me.

One of my big regrets is not taking more advantage of the roads in North Georgia.

It's not so bad, it's -just- annoying enough that when I'm done riding I don't forget and leave my key in the ignition and drain my battery :v:

And yeah, they put fresh slab down on the Suches portion of that ride this year and it's freaking awwwwesome

I have only needed my toolkit once on the drz and that was yesterday, to take some slack out of the throttle cable. Guess who never looked at the toolkit to see if it has an 8mm wrench? This guy.....

I guess my kit is missing a wrench

I don't think so, my new one didn't come with an 8mm either.
