If your buddy losing his leg is not enough of a wake up call, I don't know what else to tell you. I recommend more life insurance and a little maturity maybe?

Sell your bike to a deserving member of the org at half price?

That would keep you from speeding and make a fellow member very very happy.

Track is the answer. Go there to kill it (pardon the pun). Once you get all your anger out there, the street will feel tame.

When you get on a bike you are risk.

However driving slower is no gauruntee of safety.

Driving more sensibily will probably achieve more???

Yea spend a day at the track that should slow your ride in the streets down. When you feel the urge take it to the track.:thumbsup:

Buy a Harley!

I must admit it is hard having all this power and not to use it. I find myself chewing myself out at times when I get home for riding/accelerating so fast on my 54 mile ride to work and back. But that is what makes this bike more fun to ride than a Harley.

I also like having to power and handling to quickly get myself out of bad situations on the road.
