Since we have a forum for Other Marques and there seems such a lot of bikers on here, how about a Bike Forum?

What do you all think? Webby????

 

ONLY and I mean ONLY if the dozy b00dy idiots agree to NOT using their FULL beam in broad daylight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! What are they doing??? I can see you WITHOUT full beam on!! I can certainly hear you as you whizz 5 inches past my door mirror taking 10 years off my life with the shock!!!

Pete

 

Will scooter riders be welcome?

SJ - see the end of your previous thread.

Nick.

 

pslewis, when all the blind drivers that can't see us whether we have our lights on or not actually wake up, we'll stop riding with full beams on.

I actually ride with my dipped beam, and still get flashed at in broad daylight. Tough ****, every chance I get to be more visible, I take.

 

Bike section sounds a good idea to me

I agree, a vote for a bike forum from me.....

Pete, like the man said, we'll stop using daytime lights when *most* drivers stop trying to kill us with their Mr Magoo visual abilities....

Matt

 

I'll vote yes to that.

 

yep, good idea

 

Daytime lights are fine and dandy - its the ******** lights I am on about!!! two lights, FULL beam, blinding the **** out of everyone so they pull out in front of the next bike as they are still 'seeing' two holes in their vision!!

Pete

 

Yes that'll do nicely

Pete, Anything that I can do to ensure that little old ladies and folk half-asleep can see me is a good thing in my book( if you can see bikers ever time that puts you in the minority Pete). No I don't try to blind other road users but I have been taken out twice by ***** not paying attention. Sliding up a road at 30 mph on your stomach is no feckin fun at all!

Replied in other thread - YHM

 

Come on, where are all the other bikers I know hang out on here???....

 

Bike forum sounds good to me.

Although I don't ride, I say keep those lights on, as I've seen far too many of my friends get taken out because some muppet wasn't paying attention.

Andy.

You can have your Forum but you must all promise to carry Donor Cards

Blue

 

I carry a donor card and my parents/fiancee all know my wishes.

 

thumbs up for a Bike forum !!!

but we cant let any 455 munchers from gixxer.com in here !

 

You all talk like *ALL* bikers are responable road users! Most are and I keep an eye out (despite not being a biker)

You forget there are idiots out there, who even if they used all the lights known to man, couldn't make themselves visable! Like riding at speeds in excess of double the limit and weaving to overtake.

There are good and bad road users, whether they are in a car, on a bike, in a van, etc, etc.

Some of you need to get off your moral high horse (or bike!)

 

Worse offenders are young scooter riders, who ride around in packs! I've seen them busy stalling each others scooters at the lights!

Some seem to have a death wish, with their lack of road sense!
