I do think though that the younger people seem to think that 65 is the golden mark of people not being capable of doing things anymore. Maybe we shouldn't issue a driving license to anyone under say 21. LOL Same with cell phones. Ya gotta be over 21. umm what else can we re-regulate. LOL

Good for you. What age would you recommend? 70? 80? 90?

I find it offensive that you consider it in anyway offensive for the state to step in and take this matter in their hands when some people don't know when to say when, while the family members are complicite, and just as guilty of any consequences.

Drivers Ed tells us "Driving is a privilege, not a right." Forget that "right-of-way" you think you have. That works in court, not on pavement.

I hope everyone rides safely. No, the gray hair thing doesn't bother me. What would bother me is if you bet your life on that stereotype.....and lost.

Well said. Thank you.

Why, do you want to talk about my ticking noise again?!

Oh, and I think this one was in some serious death-throws before I rescued it!!! If it wasn't for me, you'd be getting flamed about your grey hair EDIT-EDIT-EDIT!!!

So seriously, about this ticking... what do you think it could be?!

I don't have a recommendation for age limit but I don't think you should lump all people into a category because of their age.
Should we up the insurance on all sports bikes because of the amount of squids riding them? I don't see anywhere in my post saying I considered something offensive. You're putting words in my mouth or in this case type. Course in your profile you list

Now this thread has been around the bend a couple of times. But I don't think it has been successfully hijacked. Not yet anyway.
By the way I keep my gray hair covered with my helmet or a dewrag. If folks thought there was an ol' guy on a M/C in my neck of the woods they'd all try to run me down.
Ride 'em Safe boys an girls.

Dude?! Are you on drugs, or just retarded? I apologized for the title of the thread more than enough. It was a mistake. Let it go. Get over it, and get over your bad truck-drivin' self.

Dude, stick to the newsgroups, m'kay?!

Rescue? Your initial response had nothing to do with the content, but rather lined up personal attacks. Good job at bringing the Kawasaki Community together.

You're joking right? If you can't tell the difference between some harmless banter between members and actual inflammatory commentary I'm not quite sure what else to say.
