- August 09, 2014, 19:34:15 PMYa know, I keep trying to remind people there are motor vehicle laws that can come down on you like a ton of bricks if you get the right cop...but nobody seems to believe it. I'm ALWAYS sure I'm in compliance especially when crossing State lines...I really don't need the kind of crap you can get into if you get busted for something stupid when you're 1000 miles from home!

- August 09, 2014, 18:47:27 PMI never started a discussion with him about his signal lights because the law in Ontario is,
(g) one amber turn signal lamp at or near the front on each side and one red or amber turn signal lamp at or near the rear on each side.
(2) The lamps and reflectors referred to in subsection (1) shall meet the standards set out in Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard 108 under the Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations (Canada).
so his smoked lens covers are not correct either, but then who is going to argue with you, if you ride as Pc said blindfolded

- August 09, 2014, 18:17:45 PM I'd like to get him and his bike into an ERC class...Can you imagine him trying to do a figure 8 inside a rectangle 60' by 27' 
? By the way, that's with NO FEET ON THE GROUND!!!!, or perhaps the one handed 20' weave?

The self imposed blindfold? That has to go! (I guess you're looking over the shield anyways, but yeah......)

- August 09, 2014, 17:21:09 PM I attended a Charity Ride today, and it was in my mind funny how 49 started a discussion on car tires on bikes and such, because there was a gentleman there today with a Yamaha something I tried to get a decent look at it but he seemed to not like cameras. But if you were standing about close to him he was overly proud to have installed a car tire on his bike, I do know that his bike was obnoxiously loud. I listened to him for a bit to see if I could understand his logic, now I am not planning on it nor think I would do it, but my little 800 might have a hard time pushing a car tire and my large butt along the hwy. But anyway anytime some one asked him a question he directed them to go to http://darkside.nwff.info/......ok.....
after checking out his bike and his windscreen I think now know enough......why anyone would ride with a black slab in front of them is beyond my intelligence.
Sorry Chief, thought it was you testing me to see if I was listening ......
