I do love this bike, but all that effort and they couldn't: A) fit a new kick stand B) fit a heat shield to that high-line pipe C) pump up the loving tyres D) space the seat for a human pelvis (and possible testicles attached thereof)

I believe that is their "sport" model. The tribal stickers make it turn sharper.

Serious question -- why do bike cops never have full-face buckets?
|
# ? May 22, 2012 00:43 |
|
I've heard it's so that they don't have to be always taking their helmets off and on to talk to people. Less intimidating and such. Don't know if that's true, though. I did see a couple of motorcycle cops in AZ wearing black full-face helmets with black visors...that was pretty cool, if a little fascist-looking.

They should really invest in modular helmets

I've seen quite a few bike cops with modular helmets, but most of those offer only a hair more protection than open-face helmets.

When you're riding, look out for people pitching oil in the road: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_pocXYyHCuw&t=366s GI Joe jobs fucked around with this message at 03:10 on May 22, 2012 |

Not many Milles have carbon Brembos or Beryllium-Copper fork parts.

If the riding game challenge was your bike with a wild ruminant you could have so had it.

I was trying to find twist of the wrist videos since I cant sleep. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=csPdrjzjquk&feature=youtube_gdata_player I see what you guys are talking about keeping the bike in first gear at stops. I can see he had to rapidly brake which is why the lady was going so fast, then when he looks in the mirror to see the car behind him when he gets hit.

Someone is selling this Buell on CL (http://hartford.craigslist.org/mcd/3001266089.html). Uh. So what's going on with the front fairing? As a sidenote this isn't within my price/experience range: I was just confounded by the fairing.

My favorite part is the guy that drives directly into the fallen bike. That is a huge bike swarm, I never see groups that big. I'm surprised the rest of them didn't just continue to run them over. Edit: Squid Swarm
