I'm not sure if anyone else noticed the link to the Hunter S. Thompson article in the notes but it's a good read. Here's the direct link.

Here in Malaysia, the price of sportbikes is quite expensive. Thus the mentality of people having sportbikes is quite different. Most sportbike owners here are very sensitive when it comes to safety issues. Squids here are mostly guys who own smaller bikes, 100 to 150 cc mostly.

They do all sorts of stunts that make you quiver with fear. In fact, the largest casualty rate in accidents belong to these guys. They just never learn I guess.
