 Where's bob pasker when you need him?

 For the edification of any other net.weenies lurking:


                       USE OF THE CAPSLOCK KEY

   In online communication, nothing's worse than full caps.

   The Top Ten reasons for this:

   10 - People interpret it as shouting, DO YOU HEAR??

    9 - It marks you as a neophyte who has discovered this really
        original way to be "different."

    8 - If you're not a neophyte, then it marks you as too lazy to
        work the shift key.

    7 - If you're not lazy, then it marks you as having no consideration
        fo others, since no one else likes it.

    6 - If you're not inconsiderate of others, then it marks you as an
        incorrigible who just wants to stir up controversy.

    5 - If you're not incorrigible, then it marks you as perhaps having
        some deep-seated emotional disturbance in need of treatment.

    4 - Everyone sends you tacky messages about it.

    3 - Even if local sysops tolerate it, the conference moderators will
        eat you alive for it.

    2 - The ASCII values for caps are higher than for lower case,
        therefore they cost more to send over the phone.

    1 - Most people will not even bother to read your messages,
        but will just skip over them.

 CG height doesn't appear to be as important to motorcycles as it does
to cages.  It's a factor in wheelies and stoppies, and it makes a
difference when braking in a corner, but speed of response doesn't seem
to be affected.  Cook Neilson did a rather interesting article on it in
the (now defunct) Cycle Magazine, citing machines such as the Elf
series.

 Yes, but it was water cooled!  And with 30% more displacement than the
CBX, it was no slouch.

 I got my figures straight out of Wednesdays newspaper.  It rated the 5 most
dangerous countries and 5 least dangerous countries from a sample of 128
countries.  There are no statistics for UK but I would suspect them to 
be one of the contributors.

Most dangerous (deaths per 60K miles)
Latvia 25, Turkey 24, Morocco 21, Honduras 15.9, South Africa 11.6
Least dangerous
Netherlands 1.3, US 1.3, Denmark 1.6, Finland 1.6, Germany 1.7

Other interesting stats:
Hong Kong is the most crowded
Kuwait has the most cars per family (2.1)
Mexico and Spain added the most new road milage
Traffic in Europe is supposed to rise 40% in the next decade.

They quote their source as a report by the "International Road Federation"
Where did you get your statistic from?

Hi peeps!

Riding to my friend's house, to stay the night, my bag came off my pillion.
I was on the M4, doing about 15 over DoD.  In the bag were articles that 
make my life worth living.  Needless to say, I was desolate.  After trawling
to and fro for several hours, I gave up.  Later, I thought of ringing the
main pigsty with a description of the bag and it's contents and my 'phone
number in a forlorn hope that they might have seen it and that it hadn't been
driven over (the M4 is a fast and _very_ busy motorway, linking South Wales to
London via Bristol, Swindon, Reading, etc.)  

One hour later, they 'phoned back to say that one of their patrols had picked
it up and that I could collect it on the morrow!  I was dead chuffed!  The
pigs do have at least one purpose that I approve of, after all!  Aside from 
a bit of a scuffing to the bag and a couple of scratched CD cases, the bag
and it's contents were in fine fettle.

Hello folks,
   A while back someone was asking about automatic motorcycles.  I don't 
remember if they were interested in finding one or just curious.  Anyway,
I saw a Hondamatic 750 for sale in the Roanoke, Va. paper last week.  
If someone is interested just let me know and I'll find the phone number.

How about Brighton to Edinburgh (~600 miles), or Brighton to Paris
(~300 miles) two-up with luggage, on an RXS100. I think its more a
question of attitude. 

At least we gave the euro-touring bmw-riders on the ferry a laugh.

Not that this has anything to do with motorbikes.... but Diesel himself was
quoted as saying he didn't invent the type of combustion engine we know
call a diesel - although he was one of the early workers with this type
of engine and it was, for some reason, named after him.

If you're worried about gas "leaking into the carbs", why not remove the tank

Don't know about the Colorado model, but I purchased a Hein Gericke this
spring and I know it's the LAST Hein Gericke I'll buy.  It looked good &
fit good in the store, but it hasn't held up worth a sh*t.  I've had to
have it repaired twice where the original stitching has let go & it's
about to go in again for the same problem in a different area.  I
also had a snap on the removable liner let go, even though I had
a hold right next to the snap when trying to remove the liner.  The
retail outlet wouldn't do spit for me, except to offer to pay the
bill for sewing the jacket, because Hein Gericke has a sh*tty
defective materials replacement policy.  The first seam let loose
less than 2 weeks after purchase.  Good Luck!

All I can say is that you can never have too much power.
My last bike was an RGV 250L and it did 0-60 in 4 and 128 flat out.
Fair enough it was fast when I first got it, but after a month or two
It starts to get boring, and guess what, YOU WANT MORE POWER.
I had a go on a GSXR750 and I though......faster...but not fast enough.
So as you say; what is too much power.

I would love to know the answer!

Yea, but no sane man would ride in what you call "serious conditions"!
