Moderator DirtyDT Posted June 30, 2014 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2014 ................. well I though so. Ideal for when all of the, car only drivers, say noisy/smelly/tearaway/speeding bikes should be banned. LINKY Other articles here LINKY 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ttaskmaster Posted June 30, 2014 Share Posted June 30, 2014 Somewhat theoretical though and obviously skewed. Most drivers that come at me with their bullshit will rip holes in the argument Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator drewpy Posted June 30, 2014 Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2014 I find in my empirical research that commuting by helicopter reduces my commute time considerably more, even better so the further it is! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator DirtyDT Posted June 30, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted June 30, 2014 I've never enjoyed helicopter travel. The feel of the rotors spinning above are very strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderator DirtyDT Posted July 1, 2014 Author Moderator Share Posted July 1, 2014 Last one I went in was a night flight up the strip at Vegas. There is a local place on my way to work that does them and training. I have always loved them, I just don't like travelling in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noise Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 Can you imagine a snotty nosed suited and booted BMW throw back wanting to go from his super duper wank mobile to a SR125?? na didn't think so. Bladdey good idea tho and it would work too but there are too many high roller knobs out there that will just see us all as more of a pain in the ass and want to SMIDSY us even more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dt502001 Posted July 1, 2014 Share Posted July 1, 2014 We are slowly seeing a shift to 2 wheels here,mainly among younger drivers.I think it has alot to do with the cost of insurance and you can get a new 125 for less than a craped out old car. Of the people I have takled to this summer about half of them are either new or getting back into 2 wheels again because of the price of gas. Funny because back in 1988 when I had to wright my business plan for motorcycle mechanics I used more or less this same argument and got a A+ only one I ever got in any schooling I think LOL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatloaf Posted July 13, 2014 Share Posted July 13, 2014 http://youtu.be/qxCeHFOzly8 That video reminds me of my stay in Sri Lanka a few years back, the traffic was just as bad but most of the little bikes had 3 or 4 people on them, mum dad and two kids, I even saw one guy with a 4ft gas bottle tied ocross the back seat and was told of one guy who used to deliver coffins from his workshop to the funeral parlour on the back of his bike.
