Dropped my 1100 FJ earlier this year, let me tell you it aint fun lifting up a 265kg bike! Luckily it was only infront of my gf and her family. I still have no clue how it happened as I put down the side stand, lent the bike and it just kept going. Idont think even chuck norris would have been...
+1 on the above, some VERY good reading material.
If the traps are supposed to make us drive slower they should put them where is visible. Or they could just do away with the cameras and do with some hot semi naked models, that would definitely slow 50 percent of road users down :biggrin...
