Nosey people!

[Spyke]

i see your 2cents clearly and now know not to endanger anyones life by taking my illeagle bike down the road.

would i still go to jail if i killed someone on a street leagle bike? or would that be covered because it was leagle?

[Sanx]

Whether the bike was legal or not would probably make very little difference if you were to kill another road user. What the courts would take into consideration is whether the bike was inherently dangerous and that you knowingly rode it on the road in that state.

So, if the bike wasn't road-legal (no lights, etc) but would pass any scrutineering for any race meeting going, it probably wouldn't be an issue. If it was road-legal, but the front brakes were farked, and you rode it regardless, the condition of the bike would be taken into account, even if the machine had a current rego and WOF.

[Ixion]

Are there "day-only" wof's and rego's in nz. In the UK you can get a wof and rego for your race bike, all it needs is a brake light and horn (I think) - no headlight or indicators required. With a day wof and rego you can ride your bike from half hour after sunrise to half hour before sunset.
.

Yes, but only for veteran or vintage bikes (pre 1931)

...
And oh, should somebody persistently ride like a dick on noisy bike without consideration to others they might just find a shitload of dishwashing dtergent on the road .....I know of such people near here who would do this.

Oh, for Gawds sake, give the kid a break. He rode up the road TWICE.Not persistently.

Shit, didn't you drive the neighbours bats when you were 15? Yes you bloody well did, stop fibbing.

Jeez. How do you people get so bloody OLD.

Yeah, he's an antisocial, irresponsible, selfish, thoughless young idiot. Just like we all were at that age. STOP FIBBING. You were so too. Me , I'm still trying to get back there.


Shit , if he lived near me, I'd take the zorst of ffwabbitt, n go challenge him to a drag up and down his street, just to piss off all the withered up oldies in the street. My main worry is he'd refuse the challenge, cos kids nowdays are a bunch of pussies.

[Spyke]

thanks ixion, i'd give it a go, anything for a laugh, i think i would be left in the dust.


its not all about winning .

[scumdog]

Here, ladies and gentlemen, we have police officer advocating that the general public take the law into their own hands, that the general public commit acts that not only endanger the life and safety of the dick on a noisy bike, but any other party on two wheels who rides over that bit of road before the next rainfall.

Sheer genius.

And here we have a n00b on KB who takes everything they read on KB as gospel and hasn't heard of trolling.......

Sheer amatuer.

[Krusti]

Don't think shifting to the country will be any different...

We live 20km from Rotorua on an awesome motorcycle friendly road. In the last month I have probably been out on the Zed about 5 or 6 times.

Recieved a phone call from a 'friend' who lives about 10 kms away. Was spoken to by a local on my road who lives about 2 km away. I ride past his gate each time I go out. He informed this 'friend' that they should tell me to slow down or he will make a formal complaint about my riding. whooooooo!

Stupid part is that we have many riders who come down our road but as I am probably the only one who is known to ride then it was ME!

1... Don't complain if you're not man enough to speak to me face to face.

2... Get your facts straight.

3....All riders welcome to travel up our road, call in for a coffee even, hehe.

Round a bout complaints like this just make me want to go riding at 2 am. Then again I'm not like that..true

Some people just believe that thier life is more important.

Will just have to live with the....'Was that guy on his orange bike' folks. Although buggered if I know how he could tell on the nights I went out.

Finally I have backed off a little because who needs this kind of crap. I suspect though that it may not be enough.

Always nice to be able to retrospectively declare your own comments as troll-bait, isn't it.

As I can mine. Except it's blatantly not true in both cases.

[SwanTiger]

This is a good time to tell the "Australian and the Maori joke".

An Australian came over to visit his kiwi friend in Auckland, they decided to go for a stroll along the Auckland viaduct and came across a Maori fishing from the warf. Next to him was a bucket of crabs, observingly the Australian noticed that one crab was about to climb out.

Hastly he approached the Maori and mentioned about the crab and asked "aren't you worried that the crabs will get out and into the ocean?" to which the Maori replied "Nah bro, these are kiwi crabs! when one climbs to the top the rest will pull him back down".

And, from the school of philosophy, our thought for today is:

Bread for myself is a material question. Bread for my neighbour is a
spiritual one.

Russian philosopher and theologian

[NordieBoy]

You were riding down the road on your .. road legal, rego'd, wof'd . . .. bike, bucket or what ever ...

A road where you have checked there is nothing around ....

Out of no where ... a ball rolls out in to the middle of the road ... followed by a small child .... worst case .. you hit / kill the kid .... Because accidents just happen, that is why they are called accidents.

You have farked your life (end up in jail being a$$ raped every night), the kids life, the kids parents life .... .

You riding on the road in the above way is everybodys farken business.

Just my 2 cents worth.

Still the same...

I've always wondered what trolling was. Still do really......

Maybe someone may be so kind as to put me in the picture of what a troll is. Maybe I am a troll but don't know it yet....yikes

i would hardly consider a inexperienced 15 year old riding a unwarranted, unregistred, uninsured bike on a public road "climbing to the top" perhaps where you live but not on this planet

Hmmm, but we all have to start somewhere, eh?

[JimO]

Hmmm, but we all have to start somewhere, eh?

yes we do but there is a time and a place and the place aint on a public road

[Titanium]

Still the same...

Not quite .....

If it was as you misquoted me as saying, odds are you would not go to jail and be A$$ raped every night.

All the other stuff would be the same.

[Grahameeboy]

Yes, but only for veteran or vintage bikes (pre 1931)


Oh, for Gawds sake, give the kid a break. He rode up the road TWICE.Not persistently.

Twice more than he should have done.............whoops, I have never run a red light before..sorry I crashed into a motorcyclist......always a first time eh?

Shit, didn't you drive the neighbours bats when you were 15? Yes you bloody well did, stop fibbing.

Pink Bats??

Jeez. How do you people get so bloody OLD.

They grow up Ixion...............

Shit , if he lived near me, I'd take the zorst of ffwabbitt, n go challenge him to a drag up and down his street, just to piss off all the withered up oldies in the street. My main worry is he'd refuse the challenge, cos kids nowdays are a bunch of pussies.

If he was like me he would just smile and keep his breath....
