I saw a white XB9R headed north on hwy 47 this afternoon at about 2:00. I was wondering
if it was someone on badweb. I was in my car, taking the kids down to Merimac Caverns.
I just about broke my neck trying to look at the bike! BTW your headlight is out ;)

LOL That is the first thing that comes out of my friends when they see my new '07 12R! "Your light is out!!"

We ALL hear it. That's one of the reasons I run my headlights on bright nearly all the time. ;)

I don't care if they think I have a light out. I like to have my brights available to flash others as a warning if necessary.

I agree with Southern_Marine - I prefer to flash the bright when I want to catch the attention of a driver.

I like explaining it to people and they are usually "Your shittin me, well - I'll be damned"

Technology is amazing isn't it!

Maybe I'm just lucky, I haven't gotten that one yet.

But I have had a few people ask after giving my bike a quick once over:

"Dude where's your tailpipe?"

I like having just one headlight on. You know what my answer is when they say "Dude, you got a headlight out." I say "so, that's what it takes for you to finally see me.?"
You only notice the elephant in the room when he's winking at you. Hmmm.

I'm still not used to walking out of a store having someone standing 10 feet from my bike just staring. I walk up nod, climb aboard and pull off. I look in the mirror and they still stand gazing as I drive out of sight.
