Buy a car without a key fob. Buy a car that the damned TPMS can be turned off. Don’t install a Progressive Snapahot or any other type of OBD reader with a cellular radio (yes, the Progressive Snapshot is a phone). This eliminates the major wireless entry points.

Well, single drivers can avoid the fee by using a motorcycle...

Still waiting with bated breath over confirmation of cruise control. Throttle-by-wire without it is broken (Yes, the over-hyped Yammy triple 900s are broken). I don’t have high hopes...

Also, as i’m not able to flat-foot the current Africa Twin, i’m not sure i would want a 1.2 inch higher seat. That puts it above the…

Fake News. 

I found that I wouldnt value games when I pirated... I was collecting, not playing.

So the only time I run a pirated version is if the pirated version is a better experience; i’m thinking mainly of overbearing copy-protection mechanisms, like disc checks. Consequently, I tend to pay more for digital licensing for the…

As I was shopping for cars last year, I had a few inflexible rules: It had to have a spare tire. I was surprised by how many cars don’t come with them, and how many salespeople seemed to find this request unreasonable.

The only other two rules (no interference motor and timing belt, no slushbox) severely limited…

Its not an outdated concept if the motor is still being used on new product.

Lets be honest, the people that buy a brand new Scrambler are supplementing their garage. That’s a fine use for it, or any of the older Ducatis (some with service intervals of 3K miles between valve adjustments, I believe). But its…

I don’t buy ANY belt-driven interference motor, so it is quite different than the motor in my car.

My valves on my two main bikes get adjusted at 16K mile intervals. That’s over once a year, and is still a little annoying. As I stated, Ducatis tend not to be a primary bike for people that ride a lot. It cant be.

And I…

Oh, relax. Im sure EA wont let a beloved franchise like Dead Space just die off.

Just ask Burnout fans.

That’s a tight maintenance schedule; I’m not doing valve checks once a year.

And no, they dont lose sales over it. Most of their customers don’t know the maintenence schedule on their new toy, it seems. But for those of us that put 10K+ our bikes every year, Ducati is not an option as a primary bike.

And has a ridiculous maintenence schedule. Don’t buy bikes with interference motors and timing belts, its silly.

Doesnt work for Pennsylvania either.

I only posted my that I am white because the original poster claimed that he had no issues and he was white. Race is not the issue. Forcing beliefs on people is the issue.

As far as mundane engineering goes, Honda has its failures as well. Are they still putting out cars that don’t auto-unlock when the interior door handle is pulled? That definitely offsets any benefits a weighted cubby gives you by at least a magnitude.  

I responded to the poster that stated he got no ill-will for not standing and then stated this:

The original did not have “under God” or even “United States of America”.

I am white, and when I left “under God” absent from the Pledge in PUBLIC school, I was sent to the Principal’s office. I was told I had to mouth the words or spend the mornings pre-class in the school’s basement.

Fine. Then when bridges are closed to motorcycles for weather, they are closed to all vehicles. Because “fair”. When there is a motorcycle-only checkpoint, you pull your car over, because “fair”.

WELL THEN, let me simplify this concept as it is truely above your head:
