NEVER ASSUME the other cage drivers see you, at any time!!!!!!!
NEVER ASSUME the area around the blind curve is clear of obstructions and gravel free!!!!!
NEVER ASSUME your bike is find and skip a pre-ride inspection.
NEVER ASSUME it will never rain.
NEVER ASSUME you will never get lost, so carry a map or gps device.
NEVER ride physically or emotionally impaired including over the counter medicines as well as being tired or overly emotional.
NEVER ASSUME you will never need a cell phone including cycle repair shops phone numbers.
When possible, always wave/signal to other bikers. It helps keep the positive mojo going.
Add yours as you see fit.

NEVER ride in a hurry.
Which doesn't necessarily mean "never speed up" or "always go slow". You can always ride in a spirited way without your mind being "in a rush". Never riding in a hurry means not taking stupid risks. There's a huge difference in mindset between riding fast for fun and riding fast because you're impatient, or angry, or because you're trying to catch something (another rider, a green light, a schedule, whatever). Never riding in a hurry means letting go of anger or fear or other extreme emotions that don't belong on a motorcycle. Never riding in a hurry means keeping your mind clear and fully concentrated on the ride.

Never touch another's ride. Look at it, admire it, make rude comments about it, but never touch it without first getting permission. Same holds true about another riders gear.

Deer can at times appear so quickly in front of you, it may lead you to believe they teleported there, and you will barely have time to recognize it much less react.
Broken collarbones aren't fun, don't break them by having a deer run in front of you and thereby collide with the deer.

1. ride on the edge every time, like you stole it
2. hammer past any outlaw riders with a middle finger salute.
3. laugh in the face of all those on HD, especially any wearing assless chaps
4. if your not going to sport a helmet, then might as well ride nood.
5. absolutely DO NOT acknowledge BMW riders; WANKERS!!
6. if near a Ducati, pretend you didnt see it, unless your on one.
7. The louder the bike, obviously the longer in pencil length the owner has.
8. Scooters and scooter riders are to be toyed with at any given opportunity.
9. A bit of alcohol on board will bring out the Rossi skills.
10. Never never go 2 up with another guy, unless you are a pillow biter.
