    I think we're all aware that vindictiveness is perfectly common within the police force.

    To be honest it happens in all walks of life. Be an arsehole, get treated like one.

    That sums up what SD used to refer to as the attitude test. Or as the guy I used to get to do my WoFs said of Harley owners with loud pipes: "It's about attitude: theirs - and mine."

    You are joking right.

    I’m guessing the speed limit doesn’t apply to you as well, you can do 200kph without crashing.

    A few I know (and more I don't know) never planned on getting anywhere near sheep, cattle or other vehicles on the road. Some even planned on staying on the tar seal.


    A large perrcentage of motorcycle accidents are a one vehicle event.



    The reason for the ban on unnecessary travel is to prevent risk of exposure to the emergency workers should you fail to complete your journey safely. It's nothing to do with your risk.

    If you do have an off ... the current traffic flow might mean some extended length of time before you are found. Any feelings of sadness then will be for your family and the first response teams.

    Good luck ...

    So you won't be in touch with any keypads or fuel pumps either ?

    Hot air and BS doesn't need any fuel pumps. Keypads are weaklings. In his world, he is invisible and uncrashable.

    Got a stash of gas. First thing I did was fill up all our fuel containers and vehicals well before any "rush". 340kms easy round trip on a tank.. The top box willl hold a few gallons as well. Well more than a few being 65ltres capacity. We don't have miles and miles of staight road out of the boundry like you folk. Hell if I wanted to I could mount a 4 gallon tank on the pillion area of the seat then use a tap with fuel hose connected to the main fuel line using a "T"peice to the carbs. No fuel pump required.

    Save the cost of a funeral. With her-in-doors already having access to all my savings, for health reasons, it'll make things simple.

    Actually the set up will be quite safe and secure. As I've said previously the FX650 is our primary means of transport in this enviroment.
