Front ABS Test

[gr8eyes]

Just now on my way back to work I saw a guy on a Goldwing wearing surgical scrubs and tennis shoes. I wonder if he's had to do surgery on a motorcyclist after a bad wreck? Probably not yet.

I have to admit that I have ridden in shorts and tennis shoes on occasion, but that's in grandma mode.

Yeah we all know that the pavement is less abrasive and not nearly as hard when you are in "Grandma" mode....

Having done some "serious" riding, I'd feel pretty naked without the gear on at high speed and cutting curves. My helmet, leathers and I are becoming fast friends.

Your gear is just as friendly in less then canyon carving mode. In other words, I'd rather sweat then bleed.

Just yesterday I had some moron talking on his cell phone run a stop sign on me. I locked up the back brake long enough to get some screeching and blue smoke going (even though I didnt need to) just to get the guy to hopefully **** himself as I was headed for his driverside door......

I have yet to read where one who bought with ABS wish they haden't, I read scores where those who bought without wish they bought with.

My wife said she saw someone in scrubbs on an FJR two weekends ago on TN 129 going through Deal's Gap when we were there for Smoky Mountain Bike Week.

He should just bring the whole rescue squad with him next time! :lol:

I do believe my headlight modulator helps to grab the attention of idiots like this kid who could have taken you out. I turn it off only when I'm riding with friends, so as to avoid annoying them.

Nice save, by the way.
