Wish he would have picked someone else to learn that lesson on, lol

And yes, his motorcyle needs a whole new front end, body panels are screwed. Metal brackets are broken, road rash all over the place.

I just need to get some dents removed and my bumper repainted.

Default Guy laid down his bike 2 inches from my bumper

Was out running errands a few weekends ago in my 04 coupe, pulled into the local strip mall. Big guy on a new street motorcycle is in the right lane next to me decides to make a left across my nose w/o signalling. I anticipated it, slowed down and tapped the horn. He slams on his brakes, falls off and lays down his shiny blue bike about 2 inches from my bumper. He was OK, cracked his mirror.

You can't drive defensively enough around here.

That kind of bureaucracy is the LAST thing we need over here. The freedom to buy what I want whenever I want is part of what is so great here. We don't need the safety ****'s over here any more than they already are. Let responsible riders do what they want....let the idiots and squids kill themselves...just keep the government the hell OUT OF THE PICTURE!!!!

I agree to an extent...but this is the exact reason that I now have a few dents in my bumper at 450 miles...
