just swerve at em, watch them fall over trying to avoid a car with only one hand on the bars lol

I ride my bike to work quite often 15kms-ish from Newton to Mile End and back again.

I think it'd be ridiculous to lower speed limits that significantly! It would only create more congestion, which, believe it or not is a hassle for bike riders as well. lol

Oh, and I definitely think all bikes should be registered. For example, I was pulled over on my bike by a cop for running a red light (i was midway across the intersection when it turned green) - Anyways, dont wanna cause a flame debate on whether what i did was right/wrong dangerous/fine etc.

So yeah, he pulls me over, tells me not to do it and says "this is an official warning" - He didn't look at ID, he didn't even ask my name.

So next time I get an "official warning" theres absolutely no record of the first and I can keep doing it to my hearts content until i get an anal cop and get actually fined and learn my lesson. lol

I think bikes should be registered just like any other road vehicle and should be required to follow the rules just like any other road vehicle and policed just like any other road vehicle.

Ramble complete. lol.

Well said Adam...i do think that bikes that are on the road should be registered...as we drivers have to pay the duties etc...unless the cop did an ID check like u said you can keep running red lights and keep on the official first warning as there would be no record of an official warning before....which is plain stupid i reakon....

he slower the speed limit between 2 points the more cars that will be on the road at any given time

therfore increasing the risk of accidents

Rann dosent agree with me but im not voting for him again so who cares what he thinks.

yeah i saw a bunch (15-20) of these aforementioned tools today riding up lwr nth east rd 8am taking up the whole lane riding towards the hills i only pity the poor drivers once they made it in the hills really made me think of my bumper sticker

even driving down moana yesterday, they were 4 abreast going down the mainstreet, coming up to a large rounadabout, they didnt give way or wait..they just pushed in and kept going...i have eight fingers, but i only used one when we passed them.

cocksarkers.

if people have to register bikes they wont ride them, sure they wont be in ur way but then ur gonna have a shitload more cars in ur way on the way to work, more traffic jams, less car parks etc. and what about the family people who go for weekend rides, i remember when i was younger it was a great joy of mine that me and my family would go for a ride together, if my old man had to register 5 pushbikes im damn sure we wouldnt of done it, ur gonna have more obease people, the bike industry will die, i ride bmx and downhill mtb and if the bike shops shut i wouldnt be able to get parts etc, i vote they just leave everything how it is, and just carry a sling shot for the road bike people who f**k u off!!!

thing is, people dont have a problem with your average cyclist commuter - they keep themselves alert, generally stick to the bike lane and obey the laws.

its the cadel evans wannabes in their lycra/spandex/body condoms that have the bad attitude and a self of entitlement - those are the fools that ride 3 abreast while having a good old fashioned mothers meeting while riding 40kph in a 60 zone.. its those guys who are truly giving the rest of the cyclists a bad name

-D

driving down the country highway yesterday had to get onto the oncoming lane as there were cyclist's riding 4 abreast in 5 groups.....i mean the cars are doing 110 kmph easily and to have to get into the oncoming lane i was just like WTF are you guys doing.....its a busy highway as well....as damo said minority ruining it for the Majority like RCK

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
