    it simple this is what

    the government wants, remove larger bikes and allow smaller bikes to congest our roadshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UIthE...eature=related

    of course situations like the one in the video will bring down the accident rate won't they....surely.....

    Tuis anyone

    I still ride. Alone. On a noisy old big cc bike. And wave to the ones who ride because that is what they want to do, not because it is a cheap transport, it is quick through the congested streets, parking is easy or, god forbid, the battery bikes are given free to anyone with a rasta hairdo.

    If the society then gives me a label that is their problem. What goes on inside others heads has nothing to do with me.
    I agree absolutly. There is nothing more to say.
    See you on the road.

    Thats right. We'll give you a shave, haircut and a suit and corrupt you little fucking children of the sun with a bit of money grubbing hard labour in the workforce where you belong. How dare you defy me!!

    Like The Motorcycleboy said in Rumblefish, 'the gangs are finished'.

    Imagine motorcycle culture being taxed out of existence? What irony.
    Wear the suit daily, fuck the shave and the haircut that just means we have to keep doing it (shaving and cutting)
    I thought we had to be part of the workforce to pay for all the shit the government keeps throwing at us'never stop riding it's just another way to grow old

    BTW In riding gear no-one knows your wearing the suit

So the motorcycle culture in other countries is made up by people who can't afford a car or when roads are too congested.
    You´d look like a twat waving at every single bike you see in some countries.
    I love the smell of twin V16's in the morning..

    The way the ACC Levy pricing structure is: they want us to become like other countries, with massive costs to ride a large capacity bike, and huge increases to mopeds.

    Big bikes and scooters both have strong 'scenes' in the west. Both classes have strong monetary disincentives now.....

    Its just the global one size fits all mantra like supercity and fuck regional and fringe culture. How unique and individual can we be, all riding 125 autoclutches like in SE Asia??

    Answer: custom parts! buy up now!

    My attitude is "Similar" but "I do give a shit" that this is driven by stupid, selfish, old dickheads in the AA!

    If murder was as legal as it has become popular they would be sorted by now! Bastards!
