  5. i think charlie is right.she is a young inexperienced driver that made a very bad decision.and thats the best story she could come up with.she's just getting an early start in the fast lane like most others on the road that are preoccupied.about modulators i don't care for them.very annoying to me.guess that means they ought to work.just think what it would be like if all cars had them.i personally like the highway lights and leave them on all the time.bill

  21. darn ,i was busting my butt the last couple of days getting my bike ready for the trip.my wife heard me telling one of my buddys on the phone i was heading for memphis this coming weekend and she said its not this weekend ,it's next weekend.bummer,i have to wait another week. must be old age.
  22. hit 1 deer on my scoot, and two with a car.very unpredictable and flighty.
  23. well sounds like this is a no win situation .probably enough said on this topic,before there is a major blowout.one last word.i was anti helmet in the early 60's when missouri passed the helmet law.i've done about everything you can do with a motorcycle.motocrossed ,dragraced,enduroed,a little trials,professional hill climbing,a little sport bike riding,built motorcycle race engines,and still do,so i think i know a little about the sport.like ive been doing it for close to 55 years.ive seen friends die on motorcycles ,i've had lots of crashes on bikes some accidental some do to my own stupidity.i have been awful lucky.i just try to pass on some wisdom that i have gained over the years on the helmet thing.i hate to see anyone hurt because they play the odds that it won't happen to me.i quit smoking ,i take vitamins,i eat healthy food ,and try to take reasonably good care of myself,because i came to realize that it can happen to me and it is going to happen to me, but i still have a few more things that i want to do before the inevitable happens.just think of it this way when i'm on the road i have to trust all these people coming out of side streets or making left turns coming at me. i do it 100's of times every time i ride.sooner or later one of the ones you trust to see you is going to do the inevitable and make the big mistake you were trusting them not to.it's happened to me.luckily my experience got me through it alive.no matter how good you think you are some one can eat you alive.so before you tell me about not wearing helmets it's your life that your bragging about putting on the line not mine.nuff said.
  24. don't see any disrespect here just an open conversation.seems like the ones who don't believe in helmet laws are on the defensive ,wonder why? can of worms,don't think so,people got to disagree once in awhile,or we would all be just alke.
  25. like i said before you have no right to do something when it effects the well being of others.like raising my insurance rates,having me and others look at your brains hanging out of your head ,like the family that is left behind or has to wipe the slobber off your mouth after they feed you everyday because your a vegetable.like the person on the back that you should care enough about to make them wear a helmet.like the wife who has to figure out how she's going to work and raise the kids because they no longer have an income.i've heard all these things about peoples rights being taken away.i ought to have the right to run around naked at the mall or throw rocks at the guy next door.we have these big brother laws to protect us from each other.we hired big brother to do the job and although it ain't prefect it sure is better than the aternative,no laws at all.i dumped my bike 40 years ago with my wife on the back.ya i was anti helmet when i was young and stupid.luckily,missouri just passed the helmet law.it tore her shoes off .tore the back out of her ski jacket ,and knocked a hole in th back of her helmet.can't imagine how i would have felt if i would have told her she did'nt have to wear the helmet.just my $10.00 worth.
