• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Don't do this type of thing while out riding!

I don't see where his hands came off the handle bars once to mess with the helmet camera. And, if you look at his shadow, his hands do not appear to move from one spot on the bars, as if there may have been remote camera controls.

If you're not going to pay attention to what you're doing when you ride; stay home and play with matches in the basement... :gaah:

:agree: Did not see the hands move off the handlebars. Must not have been paying good attention to where he was riding though.
 
He grabbed his front brake but didn't help. Missed it by mil sec to avoid the crash. Riding is a full commitment.
 
Interesting..!!

From the footage you can clearly see him applying brakes with time to veer to the right and hit the dirt..or get by..must have missed a class or two especially the one about immovable objects...!! :dontknow:

:agree: Don't look at the car, look where you want to go...
 
Well, if he HAD looked at the car, he wouldn't have hit it, for anyone with half a brain would have stopped long before he hit that car, or swerved to that *giant open spot* to the right of the car.

Rider inattention + target fixation + out-of-practice braking/evasion skills = dumb, dumb :cus:.
 
There is an old Air Force saying: "No matter what else is going on around you, don't forget to fly the aircraft." It can easily be paraphrased to apply to motorcycles!
 
Personally, people like this should not even be allowed to drive anything!

Imagine if you will that instead of a car, that was a spyder he rear ended!
He might have survived injury like the car but I bet the spyder rider(s) might not have!

By the way, a few days ago I almost had a "high speed lane splitter" on a crotch rocket take out my right front wheel! I think he thought I was a Goldwing or some big cruser bike riding in the lane in bumper to bumper traffic. He came INCHES from missing my front wheel.
