Unfortunately I do not know. I've not yet been social with him. From the extremely short times our paths have crossed, it's hard to tell if he's a decent guy or a jerk. The bike is pretty cool though. It's a Big Bear Chopper's "prostreet" bike (I've seen it parked in his driveway a couple of evenings when I was…

Definitely understand that quite well. I have a neighbor with excessively loud pipes on his bike. he lives on one end of the block and i live on the other. when he starts it at 5 AM, it rattles my windows and wakes me up an hour before my alarm clock goes off during the week. And then when he goes for 'joy rides' on…

Well. my respect for Elon and his awesome Teslas just went down a couple of pegs.. I had assumed that someone this smart and creative would be more open to other venues of power aside from batteries for Electric Vehicles. I also find his lack of faith and knowledge of Hydrogen disturbing. /darth-vader

I wish this kind of 'ban' was everywhere an not just florida.

maybe, but you never hear a motorcycle's stereo system thumping so loud/hard that it rattles the windows of cars and buildings that it drives past like the cars with big subs do. I realize people like to listen to their music, but keep it INSIDE your car. The rest of us don't want to hear it from within our cars or…

How about you eat your damn burrito while parked? Also isn't the whole point of a manual gearbox the experience of throwing the gears through the gate and enjoying the experience of being in control of the machine while being 'one' with it? If that is the point then leave the non driving bullshit for when you're…

not only that, but bring Japan into the mix with their ym 1999-2000 Supras and R33-R34 GTRs that can also make 900-1000+hp out of 2.6-2.9L Inline 6 engines with forced induction.

one can only hope these days.

Hardly. just had my fill of cops on power trips that seem to be showing up everywhere on the web.

Again: the blanket approach does not discriminate between innocent civilian and someone that breaks the law.. If you speed then yeah you're breaking the law and need a ticket. However, targeting all bikers based on the actions of a few and making it a crime to ride a motorcycle is asinine. How about the cops actually…

My only issue is that in this situation that anyone and everyone on two wheels should not be treated as though they are a criminal/evildoing-biker-gang-member. as my example stated. if a person riding a motorcycle though there is not doing anything against the law, then they should be left alone.. Not harassed by a…

100% agreed

Completely agreed. Working for it just makes the payoff that much sweeter, and truly makes it yours.

Yeah. these are slowly disappearing. Though as long as they are still being offered, that is the way to go. I realize eventually that dumb phones will be completely gone. I.M.O. the step to take when that happens is a Feature-Phone since it's a little more than a dumb phone but not quite a smart phone. After that it…

you don't need to be a parent to use common sense :-) We did a similar approach and while it wasn't as "fun or flashy" as the kids with their iphones, a basic 'dumb' phone is all he needed and he never griped. he was just stoked to have a phone at all.

When they can afford to buy it and the wireless plan (either contract or pay-as you-go/prepaid) on their own. Until then a normal 'dumb' flip-phone is plenty

If only it worked like that. But this isn't dreamland or a perfect world. Right now what this means is that if you're on two wheels in NY, you're a criminal. Especially if you have a sport bike. It doesn't matter if you're not doing anything wrong. They Will Stop You. Even if it's just a warning instead of a ticket.…

that seems to be an epidemic spreading fast in every police department nationwide. The worst part is that if any cop decides to oppose the 'hassle the innocent public to meet quotas" order, then they get fired and black-balled.

so even those that are law abiding citizens with all of the proper paperwork, licenses, etc should be subject to being treated like crap because of a blanket approach by the cops for what one group did? I'm sorry but if a person is doing nothing wrong other than riding a crotch rocket ( following the rules of the…

And yet you commented.
