Haha, I'll have to get one of those. I didn't even have a horn until today (when the mechanic put one on after the accident), so I kinda forget it's there, I'll have to remember to use.

Cam, maybe you should exercise that other piece of safety equipment...the really important one...your brain...use it make yourself slow down a bit. It's a known fact that cagers do dumb things. You were anticipating it...and it happened...but you were ready this time...if you had slowed a bit you wouldn't have had to hit the binders so hard...No need to have your front tire howling. And you wouldn't have a need to be so mad.

Glad you got your bike back tho...

Well, I wasn't going fast, I was going like 5 under the speed limit because I was so nervous. I probably didn't need to slam the brakes as much as I did, I was just panicky I guess.

The '84 Nighthawk 650 tank is different than the '82 450....

Relax dude...take a few deep breaths...don't ride 'nervously'...it's one thing to be cautious, and you should be...but you don't want to be all panicky, grab a handful of brake and put yourself and bike on the pavement. Gotta learn to 'flow'.

Ride safe. Be confident.

ALWAYS flip off dogs on their cell phones.
They're murderous scum!

Yeah, I hoping I'll get a little more comfortable again tomorrow, so I won't be quite as a nervous, but still cautious.
