Good article DL.

No Joke— Saw one at Walgreens, in an incredibly crowded lot, parked between an SUV and a beat-up Mini-van. Guess if you have the cash to blow, you’re not overly worried about dings...

Should be noted that BA-58/Heathrow was a rule-out hypothesis. Nothing else appeared to be wrong. That does not factually mean nothing else was the culprit. The investigators are using the “more likely than not” preponderance of a doubt standard.

I don’t think there is a problem with the course or the sport. But, there might be problem with the way the TT is run. Perhaps there should be something akin to the following: a mandatory 2-yr. “beginners” competition, with off-the-showroom floor, stock, 250 c.c. bikes, so as to allow racers the “requirement” of…

Smells like “Regular Car Guy’s” work to me...

The thoracic collar here does not appear to be as supportive as the MotoGP and Superbike suits. The collarbone protection is nice. But, collarbones heal. Necks do not (at least, not well).

Stoppies are key to, well, stopping quickly. They don’t need to be as extreme as stunter’z’, but an emergency stop, by nature, is achieved most quickly if the rear wheel is barely loaded. ABS is great. But, it can’t make up for skill (yet) and it often results in longer stops and even with ABS the rear wheel still…

Yes. This is the most likely scenario and China is well aware of this. It’s not so much that the US relies upon China. Rather, it’s the first part of your argument: China is a very powerful nation, at least they are becoming one. They still have no real blue water navy. But, they’re solving that problem quickly, and…

This is a hypothetical argument as it’s never “truly” been tested, not on any legitimate scale. I’m speaking about NATO, that is.

Haaa...!! Clever :-D

JPM’s Helmet... As seen @Troy Lee Design’s “home shop.”

Fake

It needs some tweaking. It has potential. It’s nice to see BMW stepping outside the box, for once, as of late at least.

Looks like some Hyabusa aerodynamics in the front fairing/headlight, which makes sense as that windscreen is ridiculously small. Though, maybe its design provides the rider with some wind protection. Hmm...

Agree—-this is uncool Tav. Seriously...

Realistically, this is not a safe buy, or a good one for that matter. The 458 is a fine automobile, but it was not designed to be a daily driver, to this degree. That is to say, this is NOT a Porsche and the 458 is not exactly known as “reliable.” There are dozens of boutique tuners that are cheaper than dealers, but…

Confusing? No. Requiring use of one’s brain, which thereby expels calories? Yes. Automatic driving cars, self-rising pizza, virtual sexual partners, instant coffee, mail-order brides, electric bicycles...Seriously, WTF? This world is turning into one giant ball of laziness.

Yeah, I agree. This is soooo easy! I choose not to be in the NFL. The fame, fortune, and frills are so overrated. This guy is a whimp.

It’s about time the sponsors stepped up and recognized females can drive, and female crews can setup a car, JUST AS WELL AS males. Next stop F1.

Weight has little effect on sports bikes. The rules of thumb: 1 hp is needed for every 7 lbs. of body weight. There is also little correlation between rider weight and MotoGP wins.
