Sorry, but had to restrain my language as didn't know what reaction it would have. But sod it:
How can these F*cking anti-bike B*stards get into these positions in the first place!! Agree with Kev on all his points, this REALLY gets my blood boiling! You only have to drive around of a night to see where the majority of deaths come from. How many times have you seen a Citroen AX barrelling along with a sixteen year old at the wheel, with R plates with about 6 people in the back. Do they really think their car is going to take the oncoming corner with its good suspension and brakes going 50mph too fast? Yet it seems the real criminals are people like us. I can do 150mph on a bike over the mountain all day long and be aware of accidents waiting to happen. It doesn't matter where the needle is pointing on my f*cking speedo, it's all about awareness and machine control.
Oh and say goodbye to full decat exhaust systems too with all that MOT crap.
The only way out of the loss of tourism is a "No limits for TT only" strategy which would just be punishing Manx residents for the rest of the year.
I really think it will have to be plates off and full speed anyway, only way i'll get caught is if they take me off the bike themselves, then who'd be causing the road deaths!!
Sorry if I offended anyone with the above...
