I suspect there’s likely concerns over having 40V (Or more) wires that the average lay-person is just handing willy-nilly, to say nothing of exposed connections in inclement weather. The situation sucks, but that potential solution adds a lot of potential problems to the situation.

For what it’s worth, I’m with you. Not once have I ever felt like “this excessive speed isn’t excessive enough, I want to go to jail”. The I4s seem pointless outside of a track setting.

I gave you an opportunity to clarify - you elected not to.

Oh, OK, so you don’t actually have a point then. Neat.

How did it end up in the middle of the street? It’s plain obvious how: Because it wasn’t flying.

So, the work computers get hit - not the CEO’s - and the CEO is the one who should change his password? I have no idea what you’re trying to get at here.

I’m curious as to why you’d think the CEO of the company is the one managing the passwords of the work computers.

Eh, would still be worth it to know the little bastards are getting offed, even if it didn’t stop it. And heck, if your neighbour just got taken out for doing that, it’d probably make you reconsider taking the same course of action.

It’s narrower than the CP4 is, for reference. If you find the MT-09 wide, the MT-10 will make you feel like you’re doing the splits.

As somone who doesn’t live in the US, I’ve always wondered why people decry that. Yes, America considers that stuff immoral (Perhaps less than other countries, such as Japan, but still). It’s been that way since time immemorial though. Why is anyone surprised by it, and more importantly, why is America expected to…

Honestly wish this was a thing in Canada. Here, I’d be the one in trouble for striking the poor, innocent thief.

Kinda makes you wonder why they didn’t take the CP3 out of the MT-09. With both of them being 115HP, it would’ve been a perfect replacement.

No way in hell this is “faster than before”. The motor in this thing makes 75HP. The previous R6 made almost 120HP. It’s a cool bike, but I question why Yamaha chose the CP2 instead of the CP3 that would’ve slotted in perfectly to this bike. Similar power, similar weight and similar throttle response.

Not sure what it’s like elsewhere, but bait and switch is illegal up here. Once a vehicle is sold, you have one business day to remove it from internet ads. If you fail to do so, the fines are cripplingly painful once you get caught.

Because if you don’t pass those on to the customer, you increase your gross margins accordingly. I’ve had times where I even thought I did pass along all possible savings, and Ford let me know there was this hidden rebate for some weird combination, which they’ll still give us after the sale.

“Would have worked”?

Right, I’ve definitely driven track cars and track bikes on slicks - I’m not calling out the first few drivers through the corner who were too late to react. I’m pointing out that there’s several seconds to react for some of the guys that are still barnstorming that corner by the end. The fact it’s wet and they’re on…

2) I don’t know man, while that corner might have been wet and slippery, I can’t imagine having it crushed by Go-Karts would feel good.

I get that it’s a race, but when you’re 10 or more spots back, and have watched literally everyone eat it in that corner, wouldn’t you think “I should slow before entry”? It seems like even with advance warning, everyone tried taking it at race pace, and inevitably ended up off course themselves.

Oh man, saw the image of that awesome Chevy Sonic, but didn’t see it in the entry list.
