So you think you want a motorcycle? (5 Viewers)

[Azamakumar]

like a million people got out around my oopsie
2 cars directly behind me stopped and got out, mostly because my bike slid into the lane i wasn't in
and this dude in a bmw x5 that wouldve run over my head had there not been a median strip going the other way stopped as well

all were riders but so it doesn't count

seriously though, bike started up straight away i wish everyone went about their business so i couldve just picked it up and fucked off

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

Who will be next to write off their motorcycle???

Will it be nebz?
David spade?
Runoversheep?

M8, I'm going just fine. RESPONSIBLE RIDING.

Although this one time, I went to do a hillstart but the bike was in neutral which i did not know, and cause the hill was on a sideways tilt it fell over - but i jumped off when i realised what was happening and kinda helped it down rather than let it fall.

only one person saw.

lol
fail

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

But I guess it's only a matter of time before something big happens to me.

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

I'll pics later, looking for a job :/

Green light at Intersection, had right of way blah blah.

If i was expecting a cunt to be flooring it down hill i would of gone the back way.

Oh and he/she did leg it.

ok so

you left a bike in neutral on a hill....

or

you put it in neutral and didnt notice the big green light, or the fact it wasnt in gear?

lol

responsible riding

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

apparently cbf250's have a problem getting into neutral while hot, so usually i just assumed that i wasnt in neutral after kicking it down about 5 times. this time was different, and i was in neutral but i thought i had pushed it down to first. i waited for the car to go past the intersection, accelerated and took my foot off and the bike started to fall and by the time i stuck my leg out to stop it toppling over it had gone too far so i jumped off and made sure it didn't fall hard.

lol


now im p paranoid about that green light

 

[SnowFox]

which intersection btw
pix

The intersection with Hungry Jacks and the marketplace on one side, and the club on the other.

My exhaust, i now know why it was making a whirling noise, it came off its mount.

More racing stripes + after pic i put indicator back on.


Good thing it was raining, bike would have been worst.

AND fuck lol this clutch housing STILL LIVES.

Must be Lucifer in disguise.


EDIT

Just went out to have a look, i think the headlight mount is bent and right hand side handle bar bent down a fraction.

Not sure if forks are bent, but shouldnt be. Hopefully traineeship comes through and ill get a new bike or something.

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

were you hurt?

 

[SnowFox]

Not really, just a little stiff on my left hand side, even though i landed on my right.

 

[hectic_lowie]

thats not that bad?

Haha

I've never hit a false N going down, only going up from 1>2

 

[David Spade]

1>2 all the time cos im lazy and racing etc

 

[Azamakumar]

Haha

I've never hit a false N going down, only going up from 1>2

and you lean into the acceleration and look like a complete wank while your bike screaaaaaaaaaams

 

[Nebuchanezzar]

yeah thats not cool, but whats worse is when you hit your horn instead of your blinker and people are like

wtf is your problem cunt?

 

[Azamakumar]

oh yeah, went down to the rta yesterday, and the lady said theres no record of an infringement as yet
which got me thinking
if i were to book my p's for like friday or something and then upgrade, could they stop me seeing as as far as they're concerned my record is impeccable

 

[runoutofsleep]

no

assuming the infringement isn't processed in the meantime

ps. when you upgrade there's a question on the form like do you have any infringements pending y/n

and if n everything's sweet

but if y red flag

 

[Azamakumar]

well honestly
i've paid it
what more could they expect me to do with regards to processing it

 

[runoutofsleep]

you paid the sdro who then bureaucracy bureaucracy bureaucracy before informing the rta

it takes quite a while

 

[Azamakumar]

ok so
pay the fine STRAIGHT AWAY
take p's test and run to rta
you don't have an outstanding fine because you've paid it
they have no record of the infringement as yet because it hasn't been passed on
exactly how would it be lying if i said i have no outstanding fines to pay

 

[Azamakumar]

so i'd get suspended on red p's
perfectly fine because it'd be at the start of the year and they wont expire
:/

:\

if i dont hear anything by the end of the year im going for it
