    i've used GDC for random specific questions, and to recruit to NESR.
    i'd make a new membername and get blocked, but they block by IP and not user name

    Yeah They are fucking idiots over there.
    Here are a few I compiled.


    "I heard that if you want to roadrace a bike and you lower it go with a 160 back tire instead of the 180 thats on there and it will help with the handling."

    (regarding the Aprilia RS 250) - "Yeah, that thing's a street legal MotoGP bike!"

    - "Doesn't Repsol make a 250?"

    "Racers who run in the top 5 of AMA nationals have a half inch of unused tire."

    "driving around normally, i recommend using the clutch for all shifts, but when you are accelerating fast using the clutch is DANGEROUS. think about it...you are holding on with your left hand when the bike is accelerating quickly, you LET GO of your grip to reach for the clutch, maybe if your palm is glued on you wont fly off. the sv isnt as fast as a litre bike but show me a moron who goes all out on an R1 and uses his clutch...ill visit him in the hospital and laugh in his face...then apologize and ask how much he wants for his wrecked bike

    "I turn my idle up to about 3000 rpm's so when I'm cruising on the highway my RPM's will be closer to the powerband so I dont have to downshift."

    I asked him wtf he meant by that & he said somethin like "if my idle is at 3000rpm's, my rpm's on the highway will be at 6 or 7000 instead of 4 or 5000."

    "As much as i love the Daytona 675....you have a 70% chance of wrecking it...they are the highest crashed bike out there. So if you get one be safe."

    A boss I worked for previously (mech engineer to boot) explained to me why his Harley could outcorner a sportbike:

    "The sportbikes are too light, they fly right off the corner, they don't stick to it."

    "you are .2% more likely to die with a helmet on then without"

    and "... if you ask me a scull cap with a chin Gard mounted on the strap is much safer to use then a bulky full face deal......

    the face of the helmet can snag on cracks in the road. If you look at how much the front part of a full face sticks out, it is nothing but leverage for the road to grab your spine.....that is why I ride with a 70's helmet my self and have a bit of hair on my chin for that just in case.....

    Full face deals are for the track and roads that don't have cracks and bumps all over.....Yes full face helmets are a bit safer but if you get in the crash that crabs the front part of the helmet, your a goner"

    would this work well? riding on hwy in the rain to clean the bike
    what ya think? turns out that by purely hosing the bike doesnt get all the dirt off that are stuck on the metal (front end behind the headers). plus that area is really hard to get to with a sponge. maybe water vapor hitting it at 60mph can do the job?

    My explanation.

    I went to the RMV about a week before i decided to get a bike. I figured what the hell i read "the book" cover to cover and it should be a piece of cake.

    the attendant asks did you read the book i said yes, took the test failed. WTF

    so i walk out and she said maybe you should take it again, i went out to my car and read "the book" and came back inside filled out the paperwork and took the test again. Failed. WTF WTF WTF.

    Attendant asked again are you sure you read the book. I said yes i just re-read it again and non of the questions on the test were the same as the book, she told me they were almost exactly the same so i held up the book.

    All she said was thats not the right book. there is a motorcycle book.

    I took the book read it in the parking lot and passed without one wrong answer.

    Stupid RMV they should have one book with different sections.

    Re: GSXR sites make me cry...



    First of all... paperwork? what paperwork? Permit tests are done on the slow-ass 1970's era computers that are crammed in the back corner of every RMV...

    second... 3 times??? that book must have been telling you the exact wrong answers... I didn't read any book at all, just showed up at the RMV, took the permit test, got the first 14 questions right, walked out with a permit.... (then took the MSF the next week).


    anyway, good stuff... NOW GO GET YOUR LICENSE! (hopefully you won't have to take it 3 times, I'd hate to have to do figure 8's for the state trooper more than once.... ooorrrr just take the MSF, that seems to work out better in the long run)

    If it makes you feel any better my father has been riding off and on for over 40 years and has never had his permit let alone his license. But he is the same guy that had a "revving contest" between him in his car and Leslie from BCM with a 748 that had Termi's on it.
