Research project for university

[Lubiechain]

Hi Guys/Gals!

I'm currently writing a research paper on Technology and Riders. I was wondering if you could spare some of your time and fill out my survey?

https://eSurv.org?s=LNEIIJ_4aa8cf1e

Will post my research once I am done :)

THANKS HEAPS! :2guns::2guns::2guns::2guns:

[mossy1200]

Its an ACC trap. Don't fall for it guys.

[Flip]

Looks like a spam trap to me.

[husaberg]

I think the OP is Katlyn Jenner

[1billyboy]

Be like me a put a bullshit answers:eek:

[Akzle]

a research paper?? for fucken what? primary school for retards who can't speak english?

[Moi]

I'd suggest a little more info about yourself, your studies, in broad terms, and the research paper might be useful - may encourage more people to participate...

[Jantar]

OK, I completed it. Overall a simple, but not very well designed survey. It appeared to assume a lot, and didn't allow for full answers or descriptions. Like the question on crashes, didn't allow for multiple crashes, or how long ago, or riding experience prior to crashing, or cause of crash, avoidability of crash, etc.

[neels]

I have completed it.

I hope the general impression given is that I just ride my bike, and all of the technology wankery does not need to be part of the experience.

Or maybe I'm just old....

Did you have to enter your bank account details or send money to Nigeria so you could get your 4 million dollar inheritance from an uncle you never knew you had?

[Voltaire]

Done, is it sponsored by Russian Brides.com?

I think I'll take my new selfie stick out on the next ride, when I'm using my GPS and taking lots of pics for FB. Needs questions on coffee, and penis length vs bike HP.

I warned you it was ACC.

+1 on both counts...

Found the very limited answer choices frustrating - no ability to provide further info/data which would add to the researcher's understanding of the answer choice selected.

Some on here might have difficulty answering those last two questions... :eek5:

[FJRider]

I warned you it was ACC.

I figured that out ... after I saw they thought few could have ridden motorcycles ... for more than five years ... :scratch:



The other questions were to see what possible distractions we might have as we ride ... :whistle:




But I doubt it was an experienced motorcyclist ... that drew up the questions.

[TheDemonLord]

I completed it....

Just one question - Have you ever tried to use a smartphone with Motorcycle gloves on?!?

Approaching lycra clad girly bottoms on bicycles will kill me one day as I rear end a sheep truck I didn't notice. God there could be a whole new thread on on what distracts us.

Just bought a new record player from jcar :Punk:

You don't get decent hiss and crackle any more.

[Lubiechain]

Thanks for doing the survey even if it was a jerky troll answers...

The answers are limited because what would I do with 12309479210875 different answers to one question.

Pew pew

...does it copy vinyl to digital?...

[Lubiechain]

I completed it....

Maybe that's the barrier which I'm trying to investigate further into?

I've been riding for a while now. The questions are to get a general idea of the riding community. Everyone is different, and everyone rides for different reasons. This is what I wanted to know. Will technology ruin the riding experience or somehow enhance it.:niceone:

no .

[Voltaire]

...does it copy vinyl to digital?...

Yes, and with a few bits you can blue tooth your phone music to it....
Its a nice bit of kit but really needs an external amp and better speakers.

[Lubiechain]

no .

Okay:weird:

[Akzle]

Yes, and with a few bits you can blue tooth your phone music to it....

problem is they usually have a fairly rudimental internal preamp, which gives you all sorts of arse when plugging out.

Adc nigga. Adc.

[buggerit]

I have no smart phone or Bluetooth device on the bike, so no, you cant track me , and nor do I want your SOS device.:motu:

[neels]

Can you plug it into an external amp? I already the amp and speakers, just need a turntable, but one that can copy straight to digital would be most excellent.

[carbonhed]

It's always surprised me just how far away you can tell it's a girls arse... kilometres in my case. I suspect I'm gifted.

That is very cool. Can you record records to an SDCARD?

[P38]

I completed it....

Just one question - Have you ever tried to use a smartphone with Motorcycle gloves on?!?

Yep.

Do it all the time.

Phone is connected to my Zumo via bluetooth

Zumo acts as a hub and is connected to my helmet via bluetooth.

Favourite numbers have voice tags so I can make and receive calls all hands free.

Cheers

Lubiechain

I completed your survey and answered in good faith.

Personally I believe technology (especially wireless technology) has enhanced and continues to enhance my riding experiences.

Electronic ignition was great. :shutup::shutup:

[Laava]

You also need a program to break the recording up into individual tracks and also usefull for removing scratches etc. laborious, but do-able. I bought a gadget with a cd rom that has been excellent so far. Have converted about 50 albums so far and about 100 to go. Worst bit is that it is slow, 33rpm slow in fact.

[FJRider]

I'm old enough to appreciate an electric start ... :facepalm:

[Oakie]

To my horror, I have sometimes got the gender of an admired arse incorrect. Nothing worse than admiring an arse then passing it only to find a ginger beard attached to the front end of it.

[SVboy]

What words do you want explained, retard?

Miss Perkins decided that she'd not ask the creative arts class to illustrate that particular quote from the story...

I just wanted one so I could play my LP's, sit down with a nice IPA, read the cover notes and pretend its the 70's and 80's...... I have Spottyfly is I want digital.

My mate got an Apple computer in about 1981...cost a fortune, seemed not to be able to do much when you had seen Star Trek and Star Wars....Computers...they will never catch on.

[jim.cox]

What he said.

The social technology distracts from the riding

[Laava]

Heh! "Motorcycle forum"are the words he is struggling with the most. Them and "fuck off"

[husaberg]

I would say he just is to gutless to fuck off and set up a racist neo Nazi goat fucker website.

[Drew]

I used to text while riding quite often. Pre smart phones though, and had to take a glove off to do it. Never dropped one either.

[Kickaha]

Yep.

Do it all the time.

Why the fuck would anyone want to?

One of the attractions is no cunt being able to get a hold of me

Snap..............

[caspernz]

Seems like a weird set of survey questions...and yes I answered them. The only useful device I've got fitted that relates to this survey is a GPS locator hardwired to the bike, accessible by my loved ones by PC at home or smartphone...just in case the unthinkable were to happen.

As for feeling the need to be "in touch" while out on the bike, get real will ya, that's why I go out for a ride. The phone gets switched off and goes in the Ventura pack, regardless of whether I'm out for a few hours or a few weeks.

But yeah, unlikely to be an ACC fishing expedition fellas, so relax :innocent::bye:

[Banditbandit]

Did it ...

My guess it is a market research paper for a new apps or something that already exists ..

[awa355]

I guess some people are really important. :no::no:

[Oscar]

Perfect for you then.

[Akzle]

Perfect for you then.

hahahahahahahahahah. Fuken jew.

[Oscar]

hahahahahahahahahah. Fuken jew.

Right back at ya, Jaapie Twat.

[Akzle]

Right back at ya, Jaapie Twat.

awwwww. :hug:
hows the wife and kids eh

[Kickaha]

I guess some people are really important. :no::no:

No one is that important, just some people think they are

[Hitcher]

What is this "post ride information" that I may like to have available?

This questionnaire is not that well built and is unlikely to generate anything meaningful, particularly given that the sample survey isn't randomised in any way.

[FJRider]

What is this "post ride information" that I may like to have available?



Any medical help that was needed... ???


Was your ride completed .. ???


Did your bike survive the ride ... ???


How much of the ride do you remember .. ???


Were you insured .. ???

[James Deuce]

Completely and utterly with you.

You say that now, but when/if you ever get you BSA running sufficiently well enough to go out for a ride by yourself you will find the phone

great for playing Candy Crunch on whilst waiting for the van/trailer to arrive..... also the Pedometer can tell you how much calories you lost kick starting it.:facepalm:

[nodrog]

..... the Pedometer.....

Fuck you want to get rid of that, you don't want anybody getting the information off it.
Look at all the trouble Rolf got into with his.
