Because it’s actually not all that useful. You can’t drive around with it open without risking damage, and anything that’s on the floor you’re going to bother opening the entire liftgate anyway.

So, I keep planning on getting a second bike in addition to my XSR900 as what I like to call a “drop bike”— basically, something cheap, lightweight, and low-powered that I can spend copious hours treating like absolute crap practicing low-speed parking lot practice (PLP) and high-speed wheelies. I certainly do all of…

This was the last car my dad owned before he died.

One of the best Bond openings ever— I’m a sucker for in media res— and it’s all downhill from there, feh. 

Grrr. “Peak Oil” doesn’t mean a collapse in oil demand, it means the point where it’s no longer possible to profitably extract ever-decreasing or physically-unavailable supplies of oil. It’s meant the latter for literally the entire time the term’s existed, only recently are people trying to pervert the original…

A car that old and with that many miles?

Getting in early with my standard H-D comment before the usual “hate Harley” crowd arrives wishing for the company to die.

Just wait until your service bill.

Brosnan was a good Bond failed by bad movies.

“Joe Biden, Elon Musk, and Mayor Pete are driving Wonder Woman’s pickup...”

Ding ding ding— we have a winner.

Every modern bike over 250cc puts out enough electrical power to run heated grips, they draw nothing. Might want to check before running multiple electronics simultaneously, however (grips+liner+GPS/phone is likely too much for a bike this size).

They’ve been having a huge sale during the virus period, definitely check them out now. 

All those years people (rightly) hated Oasis, Nickelback, Linkin Park; Meanwhile the real enemy was hiding in plain sight.

VDH is the preeminent living historian of Thucydides, and an excellent author of numerous other military histories.

Don’t discredit your argument by conflating the 100% self-inflicted wounds of the previous Gawker ownership with the all-new, 100% self-inflicted wounds of the current ownership. They were/are both shitty owners who failed their writers and readers. 

Sigh. Another H-D thread filled with the same commenters hating on H-D.

I will always have a soft spot for Moore-era Bond as the Bond of my childhood, but in hindsight, that’s exactly what that was: James Bond for children.

From the driver’s seat, my brother’s V8 one was an absolute blast to tool around in while cruising Southern California.
