You have to ride like the bastards are out to get ya, cause sometimes the tin tops are.

Lol BenTard, I had a loaner bike that was a bit like that. It was a 1800 Suzuki Boulevard with a huge flat car tire on it. Scraped the footpeg going around a roundabout. Felt like shit up on the edge of the tire. Not my cup of tea

I thought that those big fat car tyre bikes were only sold to the 'expert' motorbike riders? I see a lot of them even have signs attached to their backs and long handelbars for more 'control'.
