Yeah when driving my old CJ-7 the steering was more akin to herding a donkey. You don’t have direct control, you merely suggest a direction and pray for the best.

So true. Up until a year ago I was only a car guy. Sure I lusted after some bikes but I always thought that I’d be immediately killed if I ever got a motorcycle. One day a friend convinced me to take the MSF course and at a certain point while putting around a parking lot on a little 250cc Suzuki it clicked. I was…

Sean I agree with you completely. I already stated my opinion on the original article and it largely echoed what you stated here so I won’t repeat what I said, but I’m glad that you spoke up and helped to cut through the crap.

Oooh I’m in Cincy so I’m not too far away and I have some friends in Columbus that I’ve been meaning to visit. I just might be able to make it!

The prequels are not the aberrations. Star Wars and The Empire Strikes Back are.

The Yamaha designed cylinder head on the Toyota 4AGE makes beautiful music. Few know that every time a 4AGE hits it’s redline Eurobeat music starts playing and an engineer gets his wings.

If someone would add the GTA “WASTED” effect to this gif my life would be complete

I’m honestly shocked that there’s so much disagreement in the comments here. Yes the motorcyclist passed on a double yellow and yes that is illegal. Feel free to argue about whether or not is was safe, unsafe, justified, good idea, bad idea, or whatever.

you are way too reasonable to be on the internet

That may be the case very far in the future, but I don’t think it’ll be that way for a long time. At least in the US, there’s so much wide open space and expansive rural areas of the country. I don’t think we’ll see serious penalties anytime soon.

Some cars look better in certain colors, but I for one would like to see more fun colored cars on the road. Black, silver, white are usually boring on normal cars.

You usually don’t have access to electricity, but I’ve known people to use regular storage units as garages. They’re usually clean and secure and generally pretty cheap to rent.

As much as I like thinking about making an IC engine work in space, I think the best bet is electric dirt bikes. The Zero DS is a good starting point. Just wear a ruggedized space suit that can take some abuse in a fall and you’re good to go!

I can’t speak for all of them, but I regularly buy from Revzilla and they have great prices, fast shipping, fantastic customer service, and a good return policy so you can swap things out if the jacket or helmet doesn’t fit.

OMG THESE ARE SOOO COOL!

Don’t let Tavarish see this interior

I’m sure it’ll be a hit, but I can’t get really excited about it. Part of that is because its a crossover/SUV, but mostly its because its expensive. I’m admittedly not Tesla’s target market right now, but if Elon Musk is so dead set on electric vehicles being the future, I’d like to see more electric cars within range…

It rained during my MSF course and I’m quite thankful for that. I got to experience locking up either of the brakes several times. It was kind of alarming, but since I got to immediately apply what had just been beaten into my head in the classroom, the training stuck.

This Ural I saw at Cars & Coffee would do the trick.
