I did not find this to be true in much of New Jersey. The slip roads are fairly long there.
In southwest Pennsylvania, however, particularly around Pittsburgh, they are quite short. It leads to a lot of people stopping at the end of the slip road and being unable to merge for ages. Sometimes stopping is even mandatory, per a stop sign at the end!
The bars turn the wrong way to initiate a change in lean angle and end up pointed in a direction that would be suitable only for very low speeds.
From the rider's perspective, the g forces you feel on this thing from the bike leaning over to the side are not accurate. On a motorbike, the majority of the cornering acceleration felt by the rider goes straight through the bike's vertical axis, which follows the lean angle, pushing the rider into the seat, not off the bike to the side.
The Bechdel test is merely one feminist's attempt at highlighting a lack of gender equality in film and other works. It is certainly not an indicator of quality. In fact there are some awful works that pass and amazing ones that don't. Also, no one said it always has to be invoked in every piece of work.
As a feminist critique, it's quite superficial, but at least it gets people talking.
For reference, it states simply that to pass the Bechdel test, the film (or other piece of fiction):
1. must have at least two women in it,
2. who talk to each other,
3. about something besides a man.
And besides, as we all know, Top Gear is a factual program.
Got a really bad desire for a 1000cc supersports though, feeling around for a Repsol 06-07 Fireblade near my area.
Rode my brother's beemer...1000r (R?) I dunno. Just can't get over the feeling of flying over the handlebars when braking. It's ok if you like crotch rockets. Personally, I would stick with Rice burners. But I'm prejudiced towards Japanese Bikes. The beemer is as overengineered as their cars are.
i don't know if this is common with sport bikes, but it has braking like what the newer Goldwings do. You can activate the back brake with the lever too. A bunch of computer crap. Three traction control settings. I imagine it's a real pain to work on. It's got pretty good response and is very agile. But not really my style of bike. He's selling it, if you're interested.......
I had a set of Stompgrips on my SV so I could hug the tank with my legs under braking and put minimal weight on the bars. You can do it without the Stompgrips, you just have to squeeze harder. If you feel like you're flying over the bars under braking, you may not be sitting up enough.
A lot of newer bikes have ABS, and I think maybe because of that they also tend to have linked brakes.
Also, I think Matrixi is on a different continent...
Well, I'm pretty sure that 95% of people who have purchased iRacing through Steam were existing brainwashed iRacing fanboys who wanted to spam "THIS IS GREAT" reviews to deceive people.
Even to someone who doesn't particularly care for iRacing, that's some laughable tin foil hat-level rubbish you're spouting.
Look at the majority of the reviews.
If they're a fan, they're not exactly deceiving anyone by talking about how much they love the game.
Unless you mean to say they actually hate it, which completely contradicts calling them fans, and is like...
Worse then this is not really possible. So if Iracing can use Steam as propaganda then LFS maybe could do it too but nobody has any idea what going on 'underneath the hood'. Maybe Iracing is paying for this way of advertising. It's unclear what demands Steam/Valve have of gamedevs, they want money, I guess.
