Maniac, I'm from Jakarta, Indonesia. Cager's life here is not easy, bikers are buzzing everywhere lane splitting in craziest ways.


I hear that. We just recieved a contract where I work for a bus driving simulator for a country in Asia. One of their requirements was 'horde of motorcycles'.  :motorsmile:

Hmm... I wonder if I'll be able to write the 919 off as a business releated expense?

I ride whenever I can. Virginia Beach weather is not that bad for year round riding. One or two really cold months. None this year. Crazy drivers are everywhere.
Remember that there is no such thing as bad weather. Bad clothing yes, bad weather no. Except for maybe the occasional snow/ice storm, hurricane, tornado aahhh never mind.
I ride, I’m happy.

Now that is real life's practicality issue by Rob. Yeah sometimes it just throw away the fun factor.

Maniac, that 919 won't do any good here. Possible fastest speed in uptown area will hardly reach 50mph, furthermore that bike would be outmanuvered by those narrow-bar mopeds lane splitting between car mirrors. They honk you and don't care if you can not pass they just keep honking like idiots.  :boohoo:

I get wiser through my riding time but I guess the cagers become more alerted too.
