Toss pots

[scumdog]

After a long bit of conversation at the Pissed Penguin with other KBers we came to the the conclusion that a lot of KBers are tossers when they waffle on about "yeah, fuck cages" and "never would have one" and "all cagers are arseholes" etc.
Most of us need a cage now and then, if you can live without a cage well more power to you but I (We at KB) suspect you are all dreaming if you think you can exist without one.

[Magua]

A cage is a nessesity, and it's great when it's raining.

[XTC]

I haven't had any problems with cages in recent years.... touch wood. Maybe those that do get what they give??? Ride with an attitude - get attitude maybe?

ITLL BE EASY FOR THE SINGLE PEOPLE WITH NO KIDS TO HAVE NO CAR, IF I HAD TO CHOOSE ONE ITD BE THE BIKE, BUT IM NOT GOING TO SAY NO TO A BRAND NEW FREE COMPANY CAR WHICH I JUST GOT , GREAT FOR PICKING UP CRASHED BIKES

[scumdog]

Hmm, I TRIED to get a work bike but they wouldn't let me have one, I bet WINJA stuffed it up!!!

[Big Dave]

Tis I - Big Dave - King of the toss People.

OK - The Mrs has a nice car, but I don't drive it - I don't have a NZ car licence, just a class 6, so i wouldn't want to break the law or nuffink by using it and she is away so often i go for days/weeks without seeing it.

I run my 'bustling' design business and do everything social on the 2 motorcycles.

Hate cars.

Wrong Zed, WE are the 'worst' enemy, regardless of what we ride/drive.

[Sniper]

I work on both. They are both useful in both respects. I have nothing against either

[Zed]

Wrong Zed, WE are the 'worst' enemy, regardless of what we ride/drive.Tell that to the many innocent bikers who were doing absolutely nothing wrong when the cage cut them off or drove into them. At the end of the day WE can be in control of our own vehicle but lack any control over other motorists. Hence why I say they are our worse enemy. So I disagree with you there. :nya:

[scumdog]

Me too! Those that dare to differ are not realistic eh?

Except for those sorry-arsed chees- dick mo-fo's.

OK.. I admit it .. i have a cage.. even worse .. its a Mitsi 4WD RVR Sport( how Ponsonby of me.).. but on the positive side .. i only use it to take the spud around to where he needs to go , or up to Pack n save,.. MAYBE to Piha.. (hard to get a surfboard on the FJ.. fux the aerodynamics.. just really messes with my head trying to cut a racing line along Scenic drive in the cage..got knee down once and fell outta the car..)

im with you on the bigassed V8's SD.. but i think the Mustangs can stay in the barn in Ohio with $1.60 gas

Regarding all as "the enemy" because of the actions of a few, is pure bigotry.

The "I hate all cagers" message that is all too frequently expressed on this site gets up my nose too. Such bigotry and intolerance is loudly condemned by those same people, if it is seen to be applied against bikers.

By necessity and not choice, I spend close to 90% of my road time in a cage. It is disappointing that I should have to spend so much time as an object of hate. :dodge:

I'm starting to think that the only way to find a well-balanced biker is to find one with a chip on both shoulders........ :whistle:

I would be hard done by with no Car now ..but never had one from 82 though 1990... of course when i needed to get a Ford Galaxy 9in housing to the Railway workshops for narrowing i cut one tube off and tied the lot to my CBX/6 's seat,the next day the diff head in a sack went the same way..my engine stand,same thing tied to the seat in bits and welded together at home..you just need to think outside the square sometimes.
As far as the whole Bike /anti "cage" ... i kind of figured a car etc is like being in a little personal bubble..you go from your home bubble,get in the car bubble and say drive to your work bubble all a little oblivious to the surroundings..bikes being a little more real world as far as surroundings...black and white verses colour.

[matthewt]

With 4 kids there's no way we could survive without a car. We finally got our 2nd car just recently since the kids are getting older and school/sports/friends means the Mrs and I end up driving around a bit in the weekends.

Neither car is particularly exciting (Mazda MPV & Audi A4) but we couldn't survive as a family without them.

Which Dave?

I had cars - '64 'stang as a company vehicle - Van den plas jag too. MRs runs a nice e320 merc now.
It's the 'inside' thing i don't like. And queues at traffic lights and lines of traffic and waiting. 2 wheels is freedom baby. I was just born to ride.

[Sniper]

Fuck me I must be in danger of posting something sensible. :motu:

I think the only time I have a problem with a car is when the fucker runs a give way and writes my brand new bike off. Otherwise they are practical for when they are needed. I just tend to find the bike more useful and fun when Im on my own. I think I said that already

[Sniper]

You hav much to be proud of JR. Fuck, wheelying a fxr150. Had some newbie tell us today that he got (maybe) 2 feet off the ground. Bet you still king arnt ya?

[Sniper]

Now stop being fucking invisible

[Sniper]

Thats fucken disgusting. Why would you say such a thing?

EDIT: Higher than 2 feet

[Sniper]

Im off to bed now. Jrandom, I put some notes in the invisible threads on where "describes me to a tee" came from

[mstriumph]

sorry
let me express my own feelings clearly before i get lambasted for something someone only thought i might possibly have meant - mebbe ..... :dodge:

a biker in a cage is still alert to bikes and, as such, remains worthy of respect.

a non-biker in a cage is a potential hazard to bikes..
especially [but not limited to] the drivers i see shaving, applying make-up, chatting to their passengers whilst maintaining eye-contact with them, combing their hair, eating, drinking, squeezing their pustules, chatting on the phone, turning around to scream at the kids in the back seat and thumping the [unrestrained] family dog ALL whilst propelling their vehicles forward along busy roads at on or near the speed limit, totally oblivious to what is going on with the rest of the traffic around them..................

it is true, i do not respect such cage drivers......... in fact i actively despise them and have no hesitation in expressing that sentiment either here or anywhere else [and yes, sucinctly and with emphasis, to their idiot faces when they've done something stupid that has involved me]

NOW have a go at me :wait: *adjusts shoulder-chips*

We have two cars (Nissan Sentra for commuting/weekends round town) and a Commodore (for weekend trips). Much as I love bikes I wouldn't (so long as finances permit) be without at least one car now.

I did spend a lot of years in my younger days with only a bike for transport. I coped then, but wouldn't do so by choice now.

[DemonWolf]

When riding I'm weary of everything! Cyclists, Cars, Trucks, other motorcyclists.. Every obstacle... especially when I'm on my bike. I've had too many incidences and close calls not to be weary of anything on and off the road. I've also been bowled over twice while sitting at a intersection waiting for other traffic when a taxi took a shortcut over me.. and a family nurse "just didn't see me".. I've purposely picked bright colours (well reddish jacket) and a Yellow helmet so that I'm more visible... Its just not the 'cages' its everyone that you have to be weary of... plain and simple.

thats my 2p worth =)

Tosspot

The term tosspot, one of abuse, has come to be a synonym for 'tosser', someone who 'tosses' or masturbates. However, it originally referred to commodes as used in medieval London. This is evidenced by the final song in Twelfth Night by William Shakespeare.

When that I was and a little tiny boy,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
A foolish thing was but a toy,
For the rain it raineth every day.

But when I came to man's estate,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
'Gainst knaves and thieves men shut their gates,
For the rain it raineth every day.

But when I came, alas! to wive,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
By swaggering could I never thrive,
For the rain it raineth every day.

But when I came unto my beds,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
With toss-pots still had drunken heads,
For the rain it raineth every day.

A great while ago the world begun,
With hey, ho, the wind and the rain,
But that's all one, our play is done,
And we'll strive to please you every day.

[WRT]

(hard to get a surfboard on the FJ..

You can do it! Used to all the time on the island (admittedly it wasnt an FJ, it was an XT or XR), just make sure that it is bungy-corded nice and securely down one side, with the nose curving INWARDS (very important point this one, otherwise the wind gets inside it, the bungies start to stretch, and next thing you know, you've got a 7'3" wide motorcycle, of which 6'3" just jumped out in front of that oncoming car/tree . . .). On the brightside, if you do come off, then you have an extra layer of protection for your bike!

Of course, back in those days, the board was worth more than the bike . . .

Well, I drive cars (2001 Peugeot 306XT, 1990 Peugeot 205GTi, 1997 Fiat Punto) quite unashamedly. Because I can.

And sometimes (Shock! Horror!) I prefer driving the car to riding the bike. And sometimes, I have a lot of fun driving cars on good biking roads. I can drive a car at getting close to 10/10ths, but a bike at only maybe 4.5/10ths of its capability. I think it's because when I'm driving I can wear summat that allows room for my mighty manhood and ginormous nads, whereas I have to wear these tight leather trousers on the bike.

i dont have my car license...but im going to get it soon, i reckon i'll have a use for a car sooner or later, but i definately prefer bikes (so what, i drove the car for a little without my license ;) )

well i dont mind cages, because my road car has a full 6 point roll cage in it :D and its as fun as the bike in the corners...

they are needed and great if you have the right one

I don't hate cars.

I hate what some people behave like in cars.

I don't fully enjoy driving cars - not to the same extent as motorcycle.

But they have their uses.

[yungatart]

I love my cage- beats trying to carry a full drum kit plus extras on the back of the bike!

[thehollowmen]

I'll admit I've got a car

Not that I use it because I love my motorcycle so much more..

In the past 12 months I've put 10,000 Ks on the cage (4x4), but most of that is by the wife, 15,000 on the GS1200SS, and 650 on the RE5.

I couldn't do without the 4x4, but definitely prefer the bike. :ride:

Wrong Zed, WE are the 'worst' enemy, regardless of what we ride/drive.

Not me Scumdog. My 'worst' enemy on the road is everybody else but me. That's cagers, bikers, cyclists, truckers, etc. If they are out and about I give everbody a wide berth. All I ask is the same from everbody else no matter what they drive/ride/steer or whatever.

[loosebruce]

I dont have a car anymore, fell apart, much like my bikes, spend too much on bikes too buy a cheap shitbox civic to run around in, one day though, but the missus has a car so i take that when or if i need too, handy when you're swapping tyres and you take both rims off chuck em in the car and go to ya local to change em over, soo much easier (and cheaper for some). cars got a lot of plus's.

On the car side of things.

Flatmates got a 76 caddy Hearse 460 V8 sitting out front pity it weighs over 3 ton but nothing a 671 blower wont fix and a 200hp shot of NOS, and the JZA80 twin turbo 6 spd Supra in the garage is a bit of all right, something about 140kph going well sideways that is fun (on a track of course). cars are aight by me, just really dig my bike.

[inlinefour]

After a long bit of conversation at the Pissed Penguin with other KBers we came to the the conclusion that a lot of KBers are tossers when they waffle on about "yeah, fuck cages" and "never would have one" and "all cagers are arseholes" etc.
Most of us need a cage now and then, if you can live without a cage well more power to you but I (We at KB) suspect you are all dreaming if you think you can exist without one.

I know alot of things that I do in the Hilux I would never do without it. I think its a case of individuals inflating their own egos, nothing more, nothing less. Without cages/trucks/trains etc the country would be screwed. People rely on them generally much more than they will actually realise...
