Does it sound incredibly arrogant when I say that I saw some of those leaked pictures and thought, "Eh, I've encountered better than that before"?

Fake Edit: To answer my own question, yes it does.

I ordered some Redback boots a few months ago, realized I ordered a half size too big, and then tried to cancel the order. Nobody responded to my email until well after they shipped, and between the return cost and the UPS brokerage it'd cost me $60 just to return and exchange them. :sigh:

The worst part is, when I tried them on I fell in total love with them, so now I have to put up with their bullshit.

Almost got taken out hard on my GSXR750 yesterday - hadn't been riding it much because of the heat / my E30 so I rode it to work for the gently caress of it. Roll up to a red light, first in line, right lane, sitting left of center in the lane as I always do and my arm gets tapped as a minivan blows by me, runs the red, hits a traffic light, hits the red light camera, then hits an electrical box and rolls over.

Yeah, and Fiat is the 7th largest auto manufacturer in the world and the 500 isn't a Japanese RWD roadster, so who the gently caress cares?

CA will yell at you to always be watching your mirrors if they haven't already. I've had too many close calls like this that now I drive to work most of the time. I used to ride the bike to work everyday, irregardless of weather or common sense, but now I'm a fair weather rider I guess. I would much rather have someone hit me when I'm in the VW than when I'm on a bike.

I'm hoping you had a camera recording.

I usually watch my mirrors and I caught the dude in my mirrors WAY too late for how fast he was going (40+). I've also been an all weather rider - including snow - for many years and never had a really close rear ending call until now. I've been on the fence about selling the bike or ditching the tags to exclusively track it for a couple of months now but I think this will just speed up the inevitable decision. It's not one that I really want to make but the interest level isn't there and I'm getting old enough to actually be scared about getting hurt. 60mph+ lowside with a concussion at a trackday about 5 months ago hasn't been helping either.

I've been going back and forth with that decision too. Picked up a new (to me) WR250x in February and while it's great fun I don't have the time to ride as much as I want and I'm always kind of nervous because people around here drive like complete morons. Would be easy enough to sell it and the other street bike I have then just have the race and trials bike. I enjoy it while I'm out there but don't have the drive or time to go out for a ride after work or spend a weekend riding in the mountains.

$300 Beetle update: the kind of adult who'll leave a derelict vehicle in her father's driveway with no plans for it is, oddly enough, not very quick to get her poo poo together. Haven't even had a call back yet, so I guess I'll have to bother the dad again.

After seeing the Tinkerbell seat covers, I had at least hoped she'd be excited to spend the money on meth.
