    Not an easy curve.......

    Clearly loss of traction due to sand/dust on the road. It happens a lot on roads with sandy shoulders and windy conditions, experienced the same in Greece last May and I would have been down had I've been riding faster. All bikes in this video clip came in way too fast for the condition they...

    First SNAFU this year

    Yep, that just confirms it, customer service people that have been on the phone so far twice don't give a &^%$*&%ck, basically said we'll start a search...and hung up the phone. I have a case number but that number is doing me no good since there is no link for case numbers on the USPS website...

    Does an Australian enquiry scare you people?

    The Nigerian scam is just as prevalent here in Europe as it is in the US. I can't see that waiting for the money and once it is safe in your bank account and then shipping the goods can be construed as a scam...to me it's all a matter of applying common sense. As soon as a relatively simple...

    Does an Australian enquiry scare you people?

    I have noticed that Americans are quite leery if they receive inquiries from people overseas. This is my personal experience though. Even having a potential seller on the phone and explain that I'd be sending the money and he can send the stuff as soon as he has the money, I got: "I'm not sure...

    First SNAFU this year

    140-MPH M.C. chase, weaving "dangerously" through traffic

    I think it said "A motorcyclist is in custody after leading Arizona highway patrol officers on a chase at speeds reaching 140 mph." So he may have had 140 on the tach for a very short time, you can't consistently run that kind of speed (certainly not for 50 miles on a busy freeway) without...
