    Brains! I need Brains!

    Hmmmmm that seems odd. Thought about putting NWS on title but there really isn't any obvious swearing ... implied maybe ;)

    emergency / kill switch ?

    Noticed some fellow posters expressing resentment towards the MSF (Motorcycle Safety Foundation), and wonder why that is? They exist to be helpful to us, imho. That's certainly not to say we should all follow ea and every thing they say like blind lemmings. But at the same time, because of...

    emergency / kill switch ?

    Every time I use the "Engine cut Off Switch" a know it all about everything (because he thinks he knows everything due to the fact he knows a little about technical stuff) dies... Yeah! I use it all the time! ;)

    emergency / kill switch ?

    Exactly what I do at Mickey the F yer Getting Fatter Than Ever ' D's. Make the order (switch off), ride to the window, engine cut off (immediately back on), pay, ride to the next window, put the millions of pounds of sugar burrito under the jacket, leave... F'n damn burritos! half my 25 or so...

    emergency / kill switch ?

    2007 FJR lost life with a ladder at 106K

    Maybe if u did Emergency Swerving you could avoid it? I agree no one will stop in that amount of time... no way... even if yer name is Valentino and yer bike says # 46 on it...

    emergency / kill switch ?

    Also teach the MSF classes and we emphasize using the Engine Cut Off Switch for the following: You have both hands on the hand grips, you're in complete control of the bike, now simply take your thumb and shut it off. I think it's that simple, the "being in control" part. Imagine being a...

    2007 FJR lost life with a ladder at 106K

    Yup that's a good video showing that sort of thing Jasen. Oddly enough, only about a week ago, was in the car at early rush hour traffic on a six lane road in Tucson. Some bone head just a few cars ahead was driving in a "I"m scared to death" fashion. Never saw the car, but could "feel" it...

    2007 FJR lost life with a ladder at 106K

    Good thing you survived that, kudo's. In an Emergency swerve, we really don't have time to turn our heads and look where we're going (normal avoidance of target fixation). It happens too fast. This thread (the original post) is a great example. The MSF describes an Emergency swerve as "two...

    2007 FJR lost life with a ladder at 106K

    +1 Think we all experience this, Houston traffic, Dalls, New York, Miami... etc Especially during rush hours. Have to ask, anyone in this thread willing to comment on when the last time was they practiced Emergency Swerving? I ask because I have to practice it all the time, because we teach...

    Being Seen

    Good job Big. I usually just buy the license plate bracket thing they sell. But yours looks very custom, cool. I'm quite religious about stopping in a position in my lane that would allow a quick escape and watching the 6 at every stop. I know the hyper lites help, they obviously get peoples...
