When riding you can see some coming at you and moving my head aside to avoid.
This action becomes automatic , So when riding with a passenger they get upset thinking you did it on purpose when you move and they get it right smack in the Kisser :-) ~ Bill |

Another theft:
Bike stolen while injured rider airlifted
April 21, 2009 03:53pm
A TRAILBIKE rider is fuming after his motorcycle was stolen while he was being airlifted to hospital. Trevor Fuller punctured his lung and broke his collarbone, a rib and a ligament in his finger when he fell off his modified 2002 Yamaha 426 in forest near Woodford, north of Brisbane, on Good Friday.
It took a thief less than 10 minutes to make off with the bike as Mr Fuller’s two riding mates and ambulance officers moved him 500m away from the crash site to a clearing for the helicopter rescue, the Caboolture Shire Herald reports.
“I was certainly in no condition to make sure someone stayed with the bike,” Mr Fuller said.
“I can’t believe it.” Mr Fuller said
his bike had been parked on the side of a trail. To make matters worse, one of Mr Fuller’s friends – Steve Lintott – rode off to look for the bike but also fell and broke his collarbone. Mr Fuller is now recovering at home. |

TERMINATOR for Salvation = Ducati Hypermotard
Did you know those killer motorcycles in the new Terminator Salvation movie (out on May 21, 2009) are Ducati Hypermotard bikes? I guess the Ducati designers around the time of judgment day decided they should go for a more scary and human-destroying look.
Or the Italian Ducati designers were killed by Italian terminators, and then the machines took over designing the new bike… I don’t think I’m a fan of their creative concept.
Ducati Motor Holding have just uploaded a video on Youtube tooting their own horns, proud that these life destroying vehicles are really Ducati’s at heart.
The second annual auction in Dubai for Cinema Against AIDS on Friday raised $1.8 million for the cause. An abundance of Hollywood stars made it out to support or chair the event, including, Goldie Hawn, Salma Hayek, Oliver Stone, Laura Linney and Sharon Stone, to name a few. The highest selling item of the night went to the “Terminator Salvation” premiere package which contained tickets to the premiere as well as the “Moto-Terminator” from the movie. The price? $140,000.
Victor Kubicek from the company that produced the latest Terminator installment was obviously pleased but also exclaimed you would have to be a stunt-man to actually drive it. One should however keep in mind that “practical” is a concept that does not exist in Dubai.
