May is Motorcycle Safety Awareness Month, so we thought we'd get share some advice on safe riding.
Motorcyclists know how much skill is required in riding. You have to be aware of your bike, the road, the traffic around you, and most importantly, yourself, when you get behind the handlebars.
But even the safest, most experienced riders can still make mistakes. That’s why we’re presenting a series of articles on motorcycle safety, because you can never be too safe.
Rider Education, Injuries and Fatalities (http://www.motorcycle.com/rider-safety/rider-education-injuries-and-fatalities-88126.html)
Time for a reality check Whether you have decades of experience or are a newbie, it pays to realistically size up this activity called "riding a motorcycle," and to look at yourself as a lifelong learner.
Insurance Basics (http://www.motorcycle.com/rider-safety/insurance-basics-88125.html)
How much coverage do you need? Are you and your motorcycle insured well enough to satisfy your state's legal guidelines, as well as your own risk tolerance? You owe it to yourself and those who care about you to be sure you are up to date.
The Truth about Drinking and Riding (http://www.motorcycle.com/rider-safety/the-truth-about-drinking-and-riding-88121.html)
Some sobering statistics on a dangerous problem While no one will publicly declare alcohol consumption and motorcycling are OK, there remain definite problems in a culture offering mixed messages.

Not only can you see why the happy breaker in front of you is breaking but on coming cars thinking of overtaking can see you as well as you see them. Riding toward the inner line is very very dangerous and is he reason for many of the Moped, and motorcycle accidents in Hawaii. Riding near the inner line takes you way out of the field of view, but you don't have to take my word for it, and good luck finding out in your own way.

If you're getting "wobble" just from riding....you may want to verify that the wheels are balanced correctly, they're not bent and/or you don't have a bad tire. If you're just riding (relatively) straight and you get a "wobble", a dampener would help, but you're not really solving the problem.
I'm not telling you NOT to buy a damper as they are a GREAT tool, but I'd want to know exactly why I was getting that wobble to begin with. It could lead to other issues.
Just my $.02
Bboy deedz 02-25-2011, 10:10 AM HI, well im a first time rider, riding 08 R6s. And im super careful, like seriously careful always looking around while riding making sure the other cars can see me and/or notice me. But then just yesterday i learned that is not only looking around for old people in cars, even if your going like 8 miles or 10 miles you can get into an accident.
I was riding my bike slow and easy yesterday and i went inside a wendys(I was starving) i go into the parking lot slow then all the sudden my bike slips and i fall to my left. Going at like 5 to8 miles my biked slipped.. I stood up, thank god nothing crackand nothing got damage internally. It was cosmetic damage(which can be repainted easily) Well i stood up, im super pissed because i had just got the bike like 3 days ago. and i look back and there were a bunch of leafs on the floor.. I guess the people that cut the grass and stuff, left the leafs right in the middle of the parking lot.. and i couldnt see the leafs because there was a pretty big tree on that corner where the bike slipped.. So yea, i take it for the good. The only way we get better is by experience. and i beleive this happened for a reason just so i can be more aware and careful not only from cars but from the road. So yea, you can never be too safe.
is not bad at all.. but unforunally i didnt had frame slidders though// Im getting them this weekend.
Question, is it expensive to repaint what ever got scratch?

Domestic refrigerators are used to store food and prevent them from spoiling. These types of foods include fresh fruits, vegetables, meat and drinks that ought to be kept cool after opening so as to prevent them from spoiling.
Domestic refrigerators range in sizes. There are those that are small and can even be fitted in a dorm room while others are as high as 2m tall. You will have to select the size that will fit in the space that you have available in your kitchen and the purpose of the refrigerator. They can also be single door refrigerators or the double door refrigerators.
