And thats not the incident where I interupted some chav and son trying to steal my baby.

Now going to go a wash eyes with soap after the touching wood thing, some things are just TOO MUCH information!!!

In fact, It wasn't you I was talking about at all - It was Poul.... you may remember him...? :)
Don't give up.

Not now, not soon, not after being continually knocked down.

If you never give up, you can never truly fail.

I would really like to see an age breakdown on those stats as well, like how many gixxers and what ages. Is it young hooligans, baby boomers? With more money floating around is there a prevalence for a bike type in an age group?
I spent my therapy money an a K1200S
The therapy worked, I got a GS now
A touch of insanity crept back in the shape of an R1200R

i find it interesting that most of the bikes that are most likely to be crashed are also most likely to be stolen. :laughing:
also that there are some repeters between the two least likely columns.

i mean i expected crotch rockets to be the top five for most likely, but for 4 of them to be in BOTH most likely, that is just sad for whoever buys those bikes and does not know what they are doing... which happens way too often.
currently fixing my bike: 1978 Honda Hawk CB400T, orange

if my bike still doesnt work well after, might get: 1985 Honda Sabre VF700S

I'm from San Francisco, CA
going to UC Irvine
