Also be aware of the people behind you though. If someone at the light is checking their phone or whatever they may just gun it when they see a green light out of the corner of their eye.

Steakandchips posted:Slavvy, you'll be glad to know that once I get my car driving license (doing the theory test in May, then some lessons after, hopefully should have it by August or September), I intend to buy a car that costs no more than £500. Bangernomics, as they say here. Why buy and not rent if it's seeing use three times a year?

When I bought my r1250r, it felt completely unstallable. Then I tried to take off fully loaded with luggage uphill into an intersection, and stalled because I was used to not caring. School bike was a Honda Hornet, so I ought to have learned better from the very start.

Ride with the boots further back on the pegs, move them forward to shift or brake.

It's pretty small in cross section, nothing like a GoPro. It doesn't stick that much further out than my Sena control unit. A camera mounted and wired directly to the bike is less work to keep using, but also extremely stealable.

bizwank posted:That all just sounds much easier to me then having something on the side of my helmet that I have to remember to turn on/off, remove and charge, etc. Turning it on/off became a habit very quickly as I do it when I put on / take off my helmet. As for charging, I have two charging cables where I store my helmet at home, and just plug one in the camera, one in the Sena when I put my helmet there. I think a system wired to the bike can work great, but SD card corruption is a real thing that will happen after a time and if you forget about the system being there you'll probably forget to check for SD card corruption.

Let's see if the chip shortage lasts long enough for motorcycle companies to engineer fewer microprocessors into their vehicles. We may yet see a return to analog dials and cable throttles.

If the hill is steep enough, the front brake won't hold the bike still. This was instilled in me by my riding instructor who knew exactly where in town such a hill existed and took me there to practice hill starts. When I tried with only the front brake the front tire started skidding backward.

Legislation depends on legislation. As long as motorcycle licensing doesn't require the hundreds of hours on a motorbike it takes to develop both judgement and also instinctual brake behaviour that isn't "I need to stop right giving now let's just squeeze the lever as hard as possible", mandatory ABS makes sense to prevent a certain amount of accidents.

Nobody can help you about bike insurance if we don't know what country you live in.
