How about this, to ride a motorized bicycle period, you must have a driver's license and a helmet. Children turned loose on e-bike is asking for trouble. Seems reasonable to me.
I read through these survey questions, without giving any answers, it looks like a marketing survey to me. Not interested in this one or the other survey recently posted here.
I've been riding MC's since about 1974, I still do. I've had early Brit bikes and Bultacos that had the shifter and rear brake on the opposite sides that are the norm in the USA. The E-bikes opposite brake levers are just what happens in a global world I guess. I just adapt. I think it is...
I use this for mine. They are spring clamp protectors for the jaws of the clamp. I always pull them off the clamps as they tend to slip, but they fit the connector perfectly.
He could have educated you, scolded you, written you a ticket, etc, but the apparent lack of control and his screaming at you shows me what's wrong with policing these days. Imagine where this could have gone if you had "lipped off" at him.
I ride motorcycles and get lumped in with the loud pipe, incessant revving at a stoplight Harley crowd. I've owned over 50 motorcycles over the years and never owned a Harley or any kind of modified exhaust. Whisper quiet is what I like and I treat the cage drivers with respect.
Where I live, no one gives a rats ass. I leave them alone and the public at large do likewise. I do say hi to folks and smile, etc. Not everything has to be a confrontation. Anyway, it works for me.
I was up 13 bikes at one time, but the registration and insurance was getting too expensive. I really like guzzi's and am thinking of buying a V7 Special next. I wonder if there are any airheads in the stable. I've had lots of them. Cheers.
I'm the same way. Mad dogs and Englishmen in the noon day sun. Of course I'm a native SoCal person, so I think I'm acclimated to the heat. The recent rain from Hillary brought the high temp to 65 F on Saturday, and I was a bit chilly.
