In the literature given by PENNDOT for motorcycle learners, they listed the head-tap as "Your headlights are on." Nice try, PENNDOT.

I'm in the fast-as-you-can camp. This also goes for riding when fatigued, riding in traffic, inclement weather, etc. Spend as little time on the road as possible by maximizing your speed in such situations!

Bungie mentioned that my recent offroad experience was due to a "combo of target fixation and full blown panic." Yeah, if you add that I leaned on my grips pretty hard, which IMHO makes it very difficult to turn the bike. Sort of a lock-up situation. So really three things, none of which are...

FIFY.

1. Obviously faked. 2. Where was the stoppy? Wuss.

I was hopin' Honda would bring back the XX. :(

Wife won't let me get rid of the feej. Not that I'm complaining! That's a pretty Honda.

Just picked it up this morning. Already thinking about a Russell saddle! :D

An 1198 is like a hot but crazy woman. Riding once or twice would be a blast, but a relationship is out of the question. YMMV on both accounts.

Yeah, but I think it was kps. Those vids always make my hands sweaty. :yahoo:

So many great quotables in that article. Auto-deploy epi pens? Crazy Ivan maneuver? Epic.

My $0.02 - Kawi 636 is probably too much bike for most first time riders.

Wow. That's a race bike with headlights. Freakin' hot. Just cruise in second gear a lot, you'll be fine.

Key part right there. I'm not a great low-speed rider, but I've given it some practice and as a result am better than I was. Getting better still. Keep practicing!

I think we have a winner. The baby-poop oil filter rocks! lulz

"Honda - It's always nice to have an installed spare." "Honda - so affordable, you can afford two bikes."

I'll agree to tip #2, but only if tip #1 is "Admit NOTHING!" Dumber than doing it, dumber than posting it on FB - fessin' up when there might not be enough hard evidence to convict. But then, I don't have all the details, so maybe the popo had more than the article says.

Every new rider has to buy a bike some time, don't they? Otherwise, how will they be reasonably expected to become an experienced rider? I would think that an 87 VFR (500cc, yes?) would be a pretty good bike to learn on. I mean, it's not like you were selling a 'busa to a first-timer. That...

Disclaimer - I am NOT trying to blame anyone in that video for anything. Just trying to point a few things out and give ya something to think about. I noticed that the rider seemed to have a fair following distance form the car in front of him. But did you notice how that car was tailgating...

Waving at other riders is teh ghey.
