Never used glue , only hair spray ....a little squirt in the grip and slide it on , it will stay there until you want to remove it again.

Agreed , the old saying of could have , should have , would have .......many things should have been done but when thinking off the bat like both parties did was wrong . Violence didn't solve anything , it only got one guy getting paralyzed and one getting beaten and cut severely and a family scared .

Enough said ....I'm not going to continue posting only to read on how so many of you jump at the chance to kill and maim . It's "scary" to think that you would use deadly force on someone else instead of trying to dissolve a situation . I have said over and over I was for them to have givin chase but also in those same posts to have called the police so as not to let the SUV driver get away with hit and run . Pulling him over to beat him up was wrong as was him running over them and the dude got way more than a broken leg ...he is paralyzed . How can you say he deserved that  What because he had a record ? He didn't threaten the driver with deadly force by stopping in front of him . The whole situation got escalated when the SUV driver chose to use deadly force . He should be charged also. And by the way I do know quite a bit about theology as I was a minister for ten years and work as a teacher here in a Christian school , if your going to try and say something about how you warp the bible to fit your point of view I take great offense . There is a reason why it's not allowed to be discussed in here . |

Nope not hostile ....just using your same logic in a hypothetical situation that is all to real and happens far more times .

Soooo a cager slams into you or your buddy when you are doing nothing other than enjoying a nice days ride , leaving you for dead .....you don't have the right to "defend yourself " by any means necessary You talk of taking extraordinary measures to defend yourself well ..... |

.....not back peddling . Read the post again . I only stated what was done and has been done in the past ......read history of motorcycles and clubs . 1940-1970's . Were do you think Honda got the idea of " you meet the nicest people on a honda " from ?

Sorry you feel that way Kat , I don't have hate or prejudice towards cagers like you think I do ......never ment nor said I did . I call a cager a cager for it is what they are . An idiot cager is an idiot cager .....never said everyone was an idiot lol. And the comment of brothers running them down and taking care of business seems everyone read into that more than they needed too ........I also said to give chase ....taking care of business was simple ...call the police and not let the guy who just hit and ran get away with it . Simple enough , never did I condone what the bikers did but nor do I condone the SUV driver running over them either .
Hope that clears some of this hostile air some people seem to have on here .

What about some of the universal fit ones ? They usually leave plenty of room for adjustments.

Love those reverse trikes. Remember wanting one in the late 1970's . Even tried to build one from a Honda 750 and a chevette in the mid 1980's lol but never could get it to track right. Looks great I would say buy it and have a happy ride |

And that's giving chase and call the police letting them know were the guy that just hit and ran is going . And that's it , chase and report while all the time on the phone or something.

I never said what they did was right , and I was born and raised in the states ...only moved here about three years ago. But what the cager did was wrong as well but everyone seems to think he has the right to "shoot them all with a shot gun " mentality he is in the right? Who has the right to take any life ? And its not what I " HEARD" it what the papers in new York and new jersey reported befor the netorks picked it up ...if you want to do the quotes thing google it . Fatcs are facts what you SEE on the tape is not the whole story and never did I condone what they did by beating the guy . Should they have givin chase ...well yes why let that jerk get away with hit and run ....again read the newpapers....chase him down and beat the guy ...uhm I think I said NO. I'm not angry and nor do I have anger issues thank you but you people are acting like you have the right to blow them away .......im sure if you are on your scooter and get hit and run by a cage you would feel just a little bit different .....been rideing since 1977....if you count off road also lol ...if a group of cycleist can and threatened me out of the blue of course I would defend myself ...and if a cager can and threatened me I would also defend myself.

Sorry I guess I am from another time or something , been in too many wrecks and seen to many wrecks from careless cagers that don't care. Lost fellow riders from cagers . What they did on the video does not show the whole story , some of your sane comments I've heard before but with cruser riders instead of rice rocket riders taking the blame . The media and police will show that its those mad max bikers terrorizing and out for blood crap only to put another bad light on us all . Believe what you want , we have that right . The taking care of business I do stand beside , when was the last time you were out for a ride with your buddy and a cager runs him down without even looking were they were going or even care , or your wife ran off the rode and the cager took off ? Am I biased to the bikers , yes possibly but then I've been there and how would you react ? Should the bikers had bashed the dudes head in , no blocking him in and waiting for police to settle it yes ...oh but wait when they tried that he ran them over even more so if he's out for my blood and doesn't care I'm just supposed to let it go? Sorry if a blind cager runs me over for no reason I hope my brothers will chase him down and stop him so the police can take his butt to jail.

But the video doesn't show the entire story only what they did. I have read reports from other newspapers that the car had hit one of the bikers way befor you see it in the video . When he hit the biker they went to chase and that's when you see the video start . The guy stopping I front of the SUV in the beginning of the video is when they first pulled him over after he hit another biker in the first place . How many times has a cager threatened your life with them not looking were they are going ? My ex was going to collage on her honda cb400 once and a car load of ditsy blondes pulled out I front of her causeing her to wreck and total the bike . The ditsy blondes we like ."...oops so sorry we didn't see you ha ha ha ..." And sped away . I have had close calls myself and I have been to many biker rallies and ridden in pacs and have seen to many times the stupid cagers dont even bother to look or claim they didn't see you . Lost a couple friends that way too. Is it right what they did .....well I won't say yes or no but I have been in that situation to often and yes in the old days that happened several times . This isn't anything new ....happened all the time back in the day .....group out for a ride some jack hole causes them to wreck or runs one down and speeds away ...bikers gave chase and took care of business .
