    This day and age, where driver's are focused on much more than the road (like touch screen navi's, cellphones, etc), and everyone in such a rush all the time, riding a bike is a death wish.

    Does Plasti-Dip count as a mod ?
    Sorry to hear that.
    I hear far too many stories from here and far away about fellow riders getting hurt or worse......
    I ride a lot myself, and it's getting more and more crazy out there.
