I rode a 1200 and it was agile as gently caress so I can only imagine how handy that thing is in traffic.

Spotify suggested Gary Clark Jr to me after I binged a bunch of Buddy Guy, but when I saw Guy live he had Johnny Lang open for him, and that white boy does a mean fuckin rendition of Lie To Me that started off acoustic before the entire band walked back out and joined in.

I swear, that whole concert was as close as I'll probably ever get to a religious experience.



Edit: ^^^^ my roommate rocks a Subaru project car and I've got the Mazda in my avatar, so I've been pushing him to buy a BMW bike so we can have the Axis powers in the garage

That sounds phenomenal. Also like Johnny Lang a bunch. Sounds like a great show.

Hey, does your planet have wiper fluid yet or you gonna freak out and start worshiping us?
Been seeing a lot more Honda DCT bikes around here lately. NoVA/DC traffic :negative:.

Per the one dude I talked to they are actually really nice, good in traffic, and fun when the time comes. You just have to get over other bike guys giving you poo poo for driving an automatic.

I took one look at the helmet I wore when I low-sided a 96 honda shadow in Arizona and decided that, if I ever rode again, I would wear all the PPE all the time no matter what. I got lucky and walked away with scrapes and bruises (I was riding with other people with a month's experience, stupid me). I'd rather my skin be hot and sweaty than on the pavement.

A vet friend of mine has USAA for car insurance and nothing else but he might be jumping ship for cheaper insurance and he has a question that seems really obvious but I don't know for sure. He's probably already figured it out but now I'm curious.

If he decides to go back to USAA in the future his DD214SMDFTB is enough right?

E: the reason I don't just ask him myself is because this was a post I saw on Facebook and I use "vet friend" interchangeably with "people I don't really want to talk to."

If you wanna change that you can always do the MSF basic rider courses that riders need to do to get their endorsements. It's a couple hundred bucks and you get to fart around on a bike for a day or 2 and if you lay a bike down it's no big deal.

also if you do this and decide to buy your first bike buy a cheap one because you will probably lay it down a few times

No, I can ride a motorcycle, I'm just afraid of things that require my attention and effort to balance. I'll stick to racing cars.

If you are riding a motorcycle that constantly requires your attention and effort to balance, perhaps you got a poo poo motorcycle.

I recommend your friend do a little bit of research into people's satisfaction after filing claims with the new company. Geico in particular is pretty awful. There's probably a reason the insurance is so cheap.

Like, over a decade.


So he shouldn't have to worry, but 2 things. 1 - He should be banking with them unless he thinks he can't live without an actual brick and mortar bank. And 2:

USAA has cheap rates and believe it or not, amazing insurance service for cars.
