Minton is dead

[Cheshire Cat]

It's the H2S -The whole population is suffering low level poisoning

It pays to read more that one post ae! The person who hit me is a DORKLANDER

[Juzz976]

Yeh bloody inconsiderate dorklanders, they should atleast wait untill your paying attention to the hazards around you before making U-Turns.
Atleast then you've got fair chance to avoid collision....oh I mean so you can reduce some speed for the inevitable crash.... ummm no before they hit you with the immense speed from accelerating with full wheel lock from a stationary position.

If only it were possibly to assume everyone was trying to kill us maybe we would then consider other vehicles as potential threats.

I lack the depth and capacity to give pleasure, yet people still call me a ....(rhymes with runt).

Also! you shouldn't judge some one on the number of months experience they have.
I went to the ride right ride safe course on sunday and met this guy who had been riding as long as I hvae. Then I asked, How many km's have you done? and he said around 1000.

So there you go. You can pack 20,000 or more km's into 6months riding.

You've done over 20,000kms in 6 months?

Did I say I did?

It was an example. And it is possible.

No but thats why I was asking, as I wasnt sure.

Well that would be nice in the next 6months of hot weather
but I only managed 12,000

[Juzz976]

20,000k's is still SFA and in no way counts as experiance if a third of those k's is done checking instruments or looking blindly to the horizon.

Oh lookie lookie! We have another!

Is this a sympathy thread?

[Juzz976]

Well put it this way, if it were a kid running out onto the road would you sit here saying 'well it was 100% his/her fault'.

We're all just concerned about your safety and the safety of others.

Priorities : not getting a speeding ticket, looking where you're going or making sure no ones gonna kill you.

I know what mine is

Is this a sympathy thread?

No. The purpose of the thread was so that she wouldn't have to repeat the line "A guy pulled out in front of me and my bike ended up write-off, now I have a CBR250RR"...

Funny how the many high and mighty of KB have taken it upon themselves to offer advice where it was not requested, make judgements of people they haven't met, and antagonise a young girl who has just moved from Rotorua to the big smoke.

As it is, she already got proper help - in the form of Ride Right Ride Safe - where she was actually able to learn, practice and gain confidence in the handling of a motorcycle.

I wonder how many people in this thread would actually walk the walk when push came to shove? Seems a lot of people in this thread are happily contributing to global warming by the amount of bullshit coming from their mouths.

Well I'm glad we agree Juzz976....It'l be interesting meeting you one day now won't it?

Saying that would have been easier, IMHO.

And to be fair, she had the accident in Rotorua. Her now living in Auckland has nothing to do with it.

You will find many kiwibikers that you meet in real life will tell you exactly what you are reading in the posts.

Why do you have this massive pole lodge up your arse? You put up a thread asking why you crashed, and then dont like it when people tell you the truth. If you get taken out by a car when you were looking down at the instrument panel then I would put the majority of blame on you. Who knows what you could have done to prevent said accident. Im not picking on you, I dont think anyone is, they are just telling you what is obvious. Go back to RRRS and tell them you crashed and the reason behind it i.e. you were looking at your speedo and then see what they say.

om nom nom this bait is yummy.

No amount of riding courses is going to save your arse if you dont have a good deal of common sense to go with it dude. Young girl moving to the big smoke. Fuckin hell mate, if you are old enough to move cities by yourself then you have to learn to stand on your own goddamn feet, and I dont even see the relevance of what that has to do with her crash.

If you spend your time checking out your speedo in auckland traffic, well my condolences in advance.
