a stop sign is more worth than a yield sign
you only have to yield to moving vehicles, while stop sings mean your car has to be completely stopped, so the van was aut fault

Yes I know a guy. It really fucked him up because he did nothing to stop them and they terrorized his mom and dad. Smart criminals only break into unoccupied houses, sure, but the dumb ones are usually fucked up on drugs and are violent and unreasonable. So would I rather get beat up with a bat and have all my shit stolen or would I rather stain my carpet with meth addict and relieve the overcrowded penal system from taking care of another strung out piece of shit? I'll take the second option

i could go googlin' again and list you the articles of people who have literally been murdered in their houses here, one guy who had his ear cut off because they wanted money he doesnt have and a few other cases where people have been beat to shit in their fucking home.
but i know it would do nothing because youre one of those guys who have a opinion on that and will never change. i dont even care to be honest, youre entitled to that opinion. but if some dude breaks into my house, isnt satisfied with my material goods wants to hurt me, i'll shoot him, and its my right to do so.

a few days ago i was riding a Kawasaki Z1000R (pic related) and it was backfiring like crazy, just cruising and let off the throttle and it would bang bang pretty loud. even at low revs and low speeds. if you hit the gas and let off it sounded like a cannon.

it also was only getting up to 9000rpm - well short of the 13000rpm limit on the dash.

could the backfire and limiter be a poor tune, or some sort of limp mode the ecu employs? or is that much backfire normal and unrelated to the redline?

Depends, long distances in short times it's following the GPS, when I have like 300km to do in a day I set the GPS, but wander around until the GPS says I will arrive at my destination after that location closes, at which point I start following the GPS again.
>>
>>13839208
I usually find a destination and ride the twistiest route.

Improvising makes me go around in circles.

I don't use a gps though. I try and go by the map.
>>
>>13839208
The true way is to travel whatever road looks cool and takes you. Then figure out how to get home. Sometimes being lost is how you discover new places. Just have a look at the area before hand so you have a general idea.

Ride safe

Haha yup. It's in my manual so I trust the engineers.

I learned to put a metal pan down to catch excess fluid and I use a plastic stiff brush to scrub and my chain looks fucking amazing.
Then spray with maxima chain wax but I think that I might not even need to do that since the kerosene is supposed to lube as well.

by riding it?

no but I like it- it's light and fast, it's sonic enough for my old-fuck standards anyway. I find it really comfy except for 80+ on the high plains- then I really want a fairing.

Still longest ride was a little over an hour most of my ~800 mi are local which means 30-40min. If I was regularly going to be doing two hour+ rides I'd probably get a different bike.

Oh and it's shit on gravel/dirt roads although I did pretend to be adventure bike today on my way home.
