Is motorcycling allowed?

Sorry to hear Boet. We're a small, vulnerable community. I wish you comfort and quick peace..

Condolences ICM. Like you say, never nice to get news like this.

You know, this motorcycling is not without its risks. Be careful out there.. Had some sad news today bout a guy I knew.

 

Just take care

Very true.

 

My brother-in-law has been commuting and touring for 40plus years, and was taken down 2 weeks ago in CT on his new KTM adventure bike by a truck doing a u-turn.

 

He's being moved from the hospital today to Vincent Pallotti for rehab (he's paralysed from the waist down).

 

I was considering buying a F650GS for commuting myself until this, but on reflection I think I will still do it.

Condolences ICM. Riding yesterday I realised, again, how many dangerous drivers there are on the roads and how vulnerable you are on a motorcycle or bicycle even without being a hooligan or nutter yourself.

 

No commuting for me; as much dirt as possible please.

Geez, that's terrible. Does he have family and support here? Happy to visit him if not.

I've always had an open relationship with my father and when I told him I'd started smoking he said to me "I'm not going to tell you what to do, you know what the dangers and consequences are."

 

He had the same to say about motorcycles.

Thanks bud, that's really kind of you. (Edit: this really is an amazing community, isn't it?)

 

Fortunately he's a local there, so lots of support all round.

I read on Wilddogs that it's not true. Dunno.

I doubt very much if it's true - Honda made a big song and dance about how 2T's are dead and the future is 4T - Hell they were one of the biggest Contributors for the move from 500's to MotoGP.  There is no way they are going to admit they were wrong.

 

A 500 2T MX or Enduro bike is like that Bat-**** crazy Raven-haired mini-skirt and boots wearing beauty in Accounts - brilliant for a weekend away, but not so much when you have to live with it every day.....
