Hope you take on board that feedback from Aaron Klaver.

That guy is clearly on the ball, and VicRoads is clearly not with the typical text book responses that do nothing to work in the way of FIXING the very problem they have created.

In actual fact it's quite disgraceful the responses that have been given and as a VicRoads rep, if I were you - I'd be appalled.

Good post Aaron, good post Ash!

What was the goal of quiz that I just did and what was it meant to prove?

I mean seriously... What should you do in the event of an accident with a bike rider. 1. Get outta there. 2. Get Details. 3. Get Aggro.

Is part of my rego fee going towards paying for the creation of this quiz? *sigh*

Trust me guys NSW is no better Mark skaife actually had to defend somebody who said that young people should do defensive driver training or advanced driver training programs as apparently there is no conclusive evidence that this would help reduce the death toll of young drivers?? Well of course there is no evidence because they have never given it a go! What is there to lose??

This isn't the first we've heard from Vicroads on the forums, only for the rep not to return until their next pointless topic. How about instead of spruiking your rhetoric, you do the reading and pay attention to what's already been/being discussed on our forums (I don't have FB, can someone post this link on their wall?):

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/336284-compulsory-licence-re-testing/

Check that out and the support for it. And this on an import forum - we are the modern day James Deans...bitumen terrorists...the "worst" drivers on the road if you believe the TT/ACA hype. Along the lines of what Aaron is saying...the public want others and themselves to be better road users...how about enforcing it?

drove through a pothole today so deep my front lip hit the ground - fix yo shit vic roads - i dont care about a bike - there is bike paths

I did that too. Cost my my insurance company a lot of money since vicroads wouldn't pay out

    • Then, shorten them by 1cm, drop the car back down and have a visual look (or even better, use a spirit level across the wheel to see if you have less camber than before. You still want something like 1.5 for road use. Alternatively, if you have adjustable rear ride height (I assume you do if you have extreme camber wear), raise the suspension back to standard height until you can get it all aligned properly. Finally, keep in mind that wear on the inside of the tyre can be for incorrect toe, not just camber
    • I know I have to get a wheel alignment but until then I just need to bring the rear tyres in a bit they're wearing to the belt on the inside and brand new on the outside edge. I did shorten the arms a bit but got it wrong now after a few klms the Slip and VDC lights come on. I'd just like to get it to a point where I can drive for another week or two before getting an alignment. I've had to pay a lot of other stuff recently so doing it myself is my only option 
    • You just need a wheel alignment after, so just set them to the same as current and drive to the shop. As there are 2 upper links it may also be worth adding adjustable upper front links at the same time; these reduce bump steer when you move the camber (note that setting those correctly takes a lot longer as you have to recheck the camber at each length of the toe arm, through a range of movement, so you could just ignore that unless the handling becomes unpredictable)
    • I got adjustable after market rear camber arm to replace the stock one's because got sick of having to buy new rear tyres every few months. Can anyone please let me know what the best adjustment length would be. I don't have the old ones anymore to get measurements. I'm guessing the stock measurement minus a few mm would do it. Please any help on replacing them would be fantastic I've watched the YouTube clips but no-one talks about how long to set the camber arm to.
    • Heh. I copied the link to the video direct, instead of the thread I mentioned. But the video is the main value content anyway. Otherwise, yes, in Europe, surely you'd be expected to buy local. Being whichever flavour of Michelin, Continental or Pirelli suits your usage model.
