No user has complained of problems. That by definition is proactive. Replacement due to a theoretical possibility of failure is proactive. Waiting for failure to replace is reactive. There is no part of this recall that is reactive. They were not pressured by any outside organization to do this recall: proactive.

I’ll go out on a limb here and say that was the best motorsports race I’ve ever watched in my life. If you’re not watching the motogp series this year you are missing out on something special.

I'd rather try and create more motorcycle racing fans.

Agree 100%. It was the best motorsport race of any kind that I’ve ever witnessed. Epic.

That was me that got hit. Last week on RT 9 south near the New Britain/Berlin line.

Damn Volkswagen’s diesel emissions.

Of course China is concerned. When your R&D cycle consists almost entirely of reverse engineering other company’s R&D, their problems are your problems.

Hey, I have one of these! Arravani Grey too, just no Sport wheels:

We leased an i3 3 weeks ago and absolutely love it. I’m not a big fan of the way it looks, but that instantaneous torque is addicting, and so far we’ve driven over 800 miles and burned less than a quarter gallon of gas. It’s not an only car for us, and realistically it probably couldn’t be, but it’s able to handle 90%…

I picked one up as an ‘extended test drive’ without knowing anything about the car. Just curious really. I live in Pittsburgh and work in the city. After 48 hours I was completely sold on the car. Traded in my Crosstrek XV and ordered just the electric version since it has the heat pump for the winter. Amazing car on…

The “Oh golly, it’s only a little city car!” is an overstatement. For one, a simple re-code (quick and easy) will turn your 1.9 tank into a 2.4 gallon tank and it will enable the gas engine to fire up when the batter hits 75% charge vs. 6% charge (if you want it to). Those two small changes make the car much more…

Yes and no. Fancy traction control sure helps keep the bike from actively trying to eat your soul when you twist the grip. But the feroucious acceleration can still be very difficult to handle. You gain so much speed, in such a short distace, that you become overwhelmed and miss your marks. In other words, it makes it…

Litre bikes have actually gotten so good, laypeople CAN control them. That’s what the electronic throttle control, expensive (adjustable) electronics, sublime suspension and ABS are for.

Or worse forced to drink only American beer!

Look in the accounting software. Someone submitted the request and someone cut a check to Bosch for the software work.

I propose Lanesplitter rate bikes on a scale from “What the shit?!” to “real fuckin’ nice!”

It’s not hard. There’s just no market for it.

This was discussed at length in the Reddit thread about this .gif.

It is not him just ‘grabbing too much brake’ if that were the issue, the rider would not have made it this far into motorcycle racing.

What most likely happened was there was a problem with his front forks not allowing proper damping of the forward…

Posters with grammatical errors should not be an option as well.
