locking a motorcycle

[Mike Frey]

Nyuk Nyuk Nyuk.... the farkle on my KLR would only be noticed by another KLRider: DR-650 footpegs, rubber mirror dampers, and a Wal-Mart tail bag in matching colors. I think the machine gun option would be noticed quickly! It's fun to ride in the city because potholes (and even most curbs) can be ignored, you can weave in and around traffic, change directions quickly, hang corners, mosey across vacant lots, and so on..... I pretty much abide by the laws, but it's been tempting to do something like go through barricades blocking traffic (OK, I do that sometimes, too) Most of my rides, however, are in the OPPOSITE direction of civilization! (North and West)
