Should bikes travel faster than cars...YES

[bladerider97]

Why ride a slow bike? Isn't that like fucking ugly obese women? (political correctness be damned!)

I thought riding a scooter & fucking ugly girls had the same thing in common

They are both lots of fun untill your mates find out.

Because riding around at 200km/hr isn't what makes motorcycling to some, that and I'm not licensed to ride over the gay 250 limit haha. I do agree, that speed does come in handy, I hate maxing out my little beast on the motorway just to keep in front of the death machines that try and kill me everyday.

Around 200kph? I pass through that speed regularly at Taupo or Pukekohe.

There's still another 100kph to go...

Thank the lord for GSXR's and Pop's Yoshimura.

Bed is very unsafe. Did you know you're most likely to die in your sleep? Sleeping is DANGEROUS. Capital D.

Avoid hospital's. The amount of people who die there is astounding. They should be banned.

And brakes. Vehicles should have brakes removed. How often have you heard "and I hit the brakes" just before the "accident". There is an astounding correlation between panic braking and crashing.

I used to work in a bar where the bar staff were notoriously loose. One night, the bar manager (who was a tool) picked up a chick, she was slurring her speech, and she seemed a little dim, but he took her home and fucked her socks off as long as he could manage it. He was in the middle of recounting this story when she walks in the bar.

Thing is, she wasn't drunk, she was a little mentally inhibited, and the best part was that she kept sitting at the bar for the next six monts begging him to marry her. The bar manager ended up moving to Australia to escape her. The irony was, he was married to someone else, and that nights action cost him his reputation, and half his house.

I foolishly boned a really hot, hard bodied marketing assistant at a company I was working at. She ended up leaving her husband and kids, thinking our lunchtime trysts were more than a great bit of fun. She wasn't even a good piece of ass. She literally would call me hundreds of times a day, at work, on the mobile and at home, at the ex wifes, at every conceiveable hour. She wrote me dozens of letters, professing her love for me, etc. I ended up quitting the job and moving. She was stalking me at my new house, and job.

She still attempted to follow me, by trying to get hired at my new place of work. She had changed her name, haircolour and was being interviewed when I happened to see her and told the HR people what the situation was. I had an extremely frank talk with her and let her know that her life was in danger. She still didn't understand, as she was so sure I loved her. She stopped, but it was a month or so of total hassle.
Psycho bitch incarnate! Lesson learned on that one.

The psycho ones are always the best lays aren't they?

Throwing caution to the wind, and cowering beneath my desk as I reply:

"But aren't all women nuts?"

[MSTRS:Me]

Come on now, fat girls need love too

Some say they're the best, cos they will do anything due to being grateful...

[firefighter]

They sure do, everyone needs some lovin'. I'd suggest you start with the fat ones, and I'll continue comforting the hot ones.

whatever Fabio!

And avoid aging too!! Thats real bad people seem to be dying of it everyday. Maybe we should have a government study into it and tax people who age. then they could increase it whenever they liked without giving notice

Having read half this thread, one note is made, and memories reminisced upon.

OVERTAKING IS SO DAMN EASY.
One day my balls will be busted by Mr. Plod, ("Licence officer? HA HA!" I say, "I don't actually have one!" Proceed with broom broom, etc etc.) while i'm speeding down EDIT identity EDIT street. Which, incidentally is very wide, steep and straight.
Even Mr. NoisyblowoffvalveGalant every morning can't outnoise me, let alone beat me down the road. (Pity he doesn't know who the teenager walking to work in his EDIT identity EDIT uniform is. So sad.)

Anyhow.
The reason I clicked on reply, was to say that EVERYONE knows it's far too easy to overtake a cage.
The only thing that can be done easier, is giving into that temptation!
Of course, I value my life and only do it on streets I can see down, and know to be quiet. Not the carpark, during school start/finish times, blah blah.
Common sense.
BUT, as they say, most accidents happen within x-meters from the driveway!
Have I ranted long enough?
Why, yes.
Yes I have.
had to accomplish SOMETHING on my day off.
Night all, stay legal =)

Edit.
Hmmm.
My LAST NAME is my account name. HOW FOOLISH!
Come on you damn birth certificate!!!

Are you drunk?????

Live in a police cell.

The deaths vs number of occupants is really really low, you'll live lots longer....

I travel about NZ on my bike, but I don't like travelling amongst traffic. To put it bluntly I don't feel safe travelling amongst a group of cars/ cagers
There are many reasons for this that most bikers would agree with me on, which I will not go into now.
I like to get out in front of these cagers " by passing them and getting clear of them" That means I have to sometimes travel over 100km/hr for short periods...(did I say that?) yes! and keep in front of them, and if I come upon another group of cars, vans, buses, trucks, I pass them too, all very safely for them and me...why? Because I can..like 0-100kmhr in about 3 seconds.
Now this is what I think pisses cagers off, like some of the other threads I have read on this site tonite, "cagers bagging bikers for being bikers." anyway to get back on track
This is also where the police must show a bit of tolerance towards bikers, for the simple reason that bikes will always pass cagers, and generally always travel a bit faster because most us feel safe to be as far away from cagers as possible, for the better of all on the road.

The financial problem comes (note I said financial and not safety problem) when a bikers overtakes a line of cagers, without realising it the bikes reach speeds well in excess of the legal road speed and very quickly... like with a couple of seconds, its generally done very safely though, but if Mr Plod is coming the other way..you've lost your licence.

Some police that have ridden bikes may realise this and may be lenient, like one officer I met, but others (narrow minded do gooders) will bust your balls

So in a nutshell, this biker mentality is what pisses some cagers off, and causes them to act irrationally.
Trust me there are lots of irrational cagers on the road, but hopefully some will read this and now be happy pricks when I pass them FAST

But you ride an SV. Since when were they FAST?!?

The health insurance companies have already adopted this model
