I have no issues with pillions carrying beer.

Subject to the maximum weight limit of the motorcycle, yes, you are
allowed to carry a passenger heavier than the rider.

However, it really isn't much fun, unless both rider and pillion are
experienced and co-operative.

It is much easier carrying a smaller pillion.

Dunno I entirely agree with that, sorta.

It depends on the bike and the pillion. The two best pillions I've had
on my bike were Kerry and Cat (RIP). And they were vastly different in
body build. I reckon a lot more comes into being able to just go with
the bike and not fight it. I've been on a VF1000R loaded up so much
with weight in the gearsack and saddlebags and Kerry on the back that
getting out of our hilly street in Chatswood, the front wheel of the
bike was difficult to keep on the ground under medium throttle. Yet
she was pretty much no effect on my riding as I guess she knew somehow
what I was about to do. I could suddenly cane the Blackbird and she'd
just sit there without having to grab onto me. Fucked if I know how.
Strong thighs or something?

Cat I didn't even notice on the back of the budgie. Being a slip of a
girl and happily comfortable, you really didn't notice she was there.

On a small bike I think it would make more difference, but who wants
to ride small bikes?

Size may matter but a red flag attached to the end of the subject (or

Hi Kevin.

Is there, perhaps, some punctuation missing, or is it, as the Thespians
would say, all in the reading?

> It depends on the bike and the pillion.

Yeah.

Am I right in thinking we are in general agreement?

> On a small bike I think it would make more difference, but who wants

> <waves to Cam>.

Angie and I did a Pink Ribbon Ride on the pink RZ250 once.

Apart from desperate slipping of clutch to get going, and then care
being taken not to wheelie the thing, it wasn't too hard.

OTOH, I once gave a lift to a proper "bikie", a seven foot tall, built
like the proverbial brick dunnie, Hell's Angel.

His H-D was stopped on the freeway due to lack of petrol, and I took him
off the Freeway, he bought petrol and I took him back to his bike.

Now, this was with the Suzi 750 cruiser, and, at the time, my left leg
wasn't working too well, so I'd normally stop with my right foot down to
hold the bike...leaning slightly right.

Anyhow, off I go with this enormous bloke on the back. No problems up
until we get to the first red traffic light.

I'm trying to get the bike to lean slightly right, so I can get my foot
down, and the big bloke is trying to get it to stay upright, or perhaps
lean slightly left..... :-O

After a few moments of panic the guy on the back just put both of his
feet down, and held the bike vertical! :-)

CrazyCam

I just gotta ask.... Did the HA wear his colours whilst pillioning on the
Suzuki?

There must be some sorta club rule on that. Maybe I'm mistaken but 1% and
Suzuki don't kinda seem to fit together, or have the Japs become bad ass
during petrol shortages.

Hmmm, another interesting theory - does a boot up the arse kick-start Human
Growth Hormone? I suspect not - I have boot-prints up the arse (and
glass-prints on the back, hand-prints on the shoulders and the head) - and
I'm still fucken short.

So.... I think your theory's fucked.

Oooh, another possible PhD topic: Does gender have an effect on the efficacy

and conversely the kicks up the backside provided an upward impetus.

Or at least that was the 'conventional' wisdom when I was growing up. :)

I musta done my share of good stuff AND bad stuff.

Well clearly it didn't matter whether I was good or bad (and believe me, I
was GOOD. Just never bloody GOOD ENOUGH.)

The day I got my HSC result I spoke to my mother and told her my mark, which
was in the top 10 fucken percent of the state. The bitch wanted to know
where I'd fucked up. Gee, maybe something to do with having been chucked out
of home by her drunken fucken boyfriend only a few weeks after I got home
from a year in Japan as an exchange student, and had to spend most of my HSC
year boarding with old people - one of whom was a fucken million-year-old
dirty old man who used to try and get into the bathroom while I was in
there.

Yeah, I was a real fucken suck of a kid. No wonder I'm fucken short.

Fuck you atec.

Actually, I used the Hells Angels in a sort of generic way.

He did have a cut-off with some patch on it, but I don't remember which
club. It was draped over the cissy bar on his bike.

(It certainly wasn't a Ulysses Club patch! ;-))

It was a stinking hot, 40 degree day.

He left his bike, and cut-off, being guarded by his lady.

Dunno.

Personally, when I have stopped to offer help to fellow motorcyclists,
who happen to belong to patch clubs, I have never had any nasty
reaction, regardless of what I happened to be riding.

Maybe, if it had been a cooler day, he might have told me to fuck
off.... <shrug>

Ditto, although I don't think I have stopped when riding a Japanese
bike, just the Guzzi or the MZ.

I did stop off at K&M HD to pick up some bits for the Norton/BSA
racing outfit once, when I was riding the Infamous MZ. At the
counter were Murray (owner, and fellow racing club member), a bod
wearing colours, and some bod in his early 20s.

The young fella started having a go at me for parking my "Jap bike"
out the front.

I looked at him, Murray looked at him, the patch-holder looked at
him, and he realised he'd put his foot in it but didn't realise
how.

No idea what conversation ensued after I left, but the patch-holder
did ask if the MZ was reliable as he was looking for a learner legal
bike for his lady.

I think 1%ers are aptly named. They'd be in the bottom 1% of the IQ
scale for sure.

Rationale: If they had half a brain they'd never be tempted to join a

Pretty broad generalisation , "some" of them are very able in business

Yep.

Well, I will admit that there are a few with some intelligence who are
drawn to these clubs, but I would dismiss them as egomaniacs who seek
to appear comparitively intelligent by hanging around with morons.
You know the type...the ones that would rather be big fish in a little
pond than little fish in a big pond. As I said... egomaniacs.

I'd suggest sociopaths would be a more accurate generalisation than
moron. If you add "high probability of coming from a socio-
economically challenged background" you'd probably improve it as a
generalisation even more.

IMHO the average IQ is about the same as any representative slice of
the local population in the region of the clubhouse

George, I was there, and you were not.

When I say that he had left his lady to guard the bike and stuff....
trust me....the bike and stuff were safe.

I don't know him, except for his posts in here making a fool out of
paulh. He was excellent value there. But I'd actually have to know
him quite well before I could hope to try to understand what would
make a _seemingly_ intelligent person want to congregate with 1%er
knuckledraggers. No doubt, if I was in posession of all the relevant
information, a clear picture would emerge.

I refer to my other msg: "I will admit that there are a few with some


intelligence who are drawn to these clubs, but I would dismiss them as
egomaniacs who seek to appear comparitively intelligent by hanging
around with morons. You know the type...the ones that would rather be
big fish in a little pond than little fish in a big pond. As I
said... egomaniacs."

Next you'll be telling me they are humanitarian altruists.

All sorts of sociopaths (tm JL) have quite brilliant intellects, so
what? Politicians kiss babies and Mafia bosses are big on donating to
charities. George W Bush even managed to fly jet fighters without
crashing. Your point is?

Ever hung out with/near a bunch of thes dudes and listened to the shit
_they_ generalise about the subjects of _their_ disdain? I was just
evening-up the scales of justice a wee bit. ;-)

Trouble with you , George , is that for some whacky reason you've

I am supposed to tell you to go kill yourself. I think the CIA's
favourite aphorism "your enemy's enemy is your friend" might well
apply here.

>or at least, that's what knobless says

Don't worry about Gonorrhoea Knobdribble too much, George.

He doesn't really understand Usenent.

He's killfiled everyone he's intolerant of and so his perception of
this NG is now one where there are only those who reflect back at him
his own narrow-minded, control-freak mindset. And he's happy with
that way of seeing his e-world. He loves life inside a feedback loop.
It's cozy. Willful ignorance is like that.

Forgive him for he knows not what he does...

Jeezus Farkin Christ, atec, pull that Pompous Grass out of your arse, will
you? "Cussing does nothing for your credibility" ....you're a fucking Sunday
School teacher all of a sudden? Don't fucking patronise me. I'm angry with
stupid things that you say, not clamouring for some kind of credibility with
you or anybody else.

And in the morning I will still be short? No shit. Talk about stating the
bleeding obvious - Winston Churchill you're not.

BTW - I find it a tad irritating that I have seen many of the blokes in here
call each other 'cunts' and no-one seems to bat an eyelid, but oooooh, a
girl cussing, and all of a sudden blokes act all offended and shocked.......

That's because whe know we're tools. It just comes a bit of a

Think abou tit, Betty. I'd have to make too many typos for it to be
accidental. It's one of my favourite deliberate mis-spellings.
Works quite well in the right situation.

This was a right situation. ;-)

The swearing doesn't bother me at all but spelling and grammar are a
different matter. You should be ashamed of yourself, young lady!

I think you could improve it gramatically for betty by replacing "to
replace" with "like", and you could drop the quotation marks too.

New rules Vicroads..

http://www.roadrules.vicroads.vic.gov.au/8_rule_motorcyclists.html

The new rules
There are three new rules for motorcyclists.

No passengers under eight years old. A young child under eight years of
age can�t be carried as a passenger on a motorcycle, unless in a
sidecar.
Travelling in a sidecar. When a sidecar is used, it can only carry the
number of passengers for which it is designed.
No animals between rider and handlebars. Animals can�t be carried
between the rider and the handlebars of a motorcycle.
Exemptions
There is an exemption for farmers. While working, a farmer can carry an
animal between the rider and the handlebars of a motorcycle for up to
500 metres on a road.

What you have to do
If you are carrying young passengers, other than in a sidecar make sure
that they are at least eight years old, they can reach the foot pegs and
they are wearing an approved motorcycle helmet.

Also limit your sidecar passengers and use other ways to transport
animals.

Does one have to own a farm to be called a farmer?

:-P

What?! Not even with an ostrich feather? How about if I just brush it

Easy peasy. The only time I've ridden with a dog on my bike was on the
Yarra Boulevarde in the 80s. The dog was between me and my pillion.
Nowhere near the handlebars. Dog was having a ball. I must admit to us
both being drunk and am surprised we survived that trip as the VF was
getting sparks off the road where we were bottoming the thing out
constantly as I decided we'd go home via the boulevarde than creeping
quietly home via the direct route.

I once knew of a bloke they called The Farmer, but the only relativity he
had with a farm was that his parents owned a farm and he grew dope in his
backyard in Brunswick.

In my experience ostrich / emu / peacock feathers ar not suited to
violent movement...unless still attached to the bird

They look good but you can't thrash 'em around or they break...they
don't get much thrashing around on the bird either...an Emu / Ostrich is
a bit like a mobile hay bale...the Peacock does at least fly a bit but
the feathers that get all the thrashing are small and like a chook feather

Chook feathers are eminently suitable for administering 'delicate
touches' with, and quite robust...the exotic feathers can be too fluffy
and tickly

Damn right. And if you've got one of those bikes which have the
cylinders sticking out the side, you still find small feathers in the
fins two years later.

If you're looking for feathers that can hurt you, try getting near a
wing-flapping goose.
