Spark plugs are easy to reach now
It wouldn't surprise me if the plan to get the corvair off the truck was to undo the tiedowns, then reverse to about 20 or 30K, then stop quick!?!?!? I'm guessing the width of the load is directly proportional to the space between his ears.I wonder if the forklift is following him! LOL. It must have taken one or a crain, to get it on there.
Ever helpful, the guy in the white vehicle says, "Hey ya doin, where dyall want me to deliver this?"Watch to the end !!!

Hey Boss don't you see the "Paint Prep" sign??
I think he forgot the oversize sign.
Indeed. Although some people don't have to wear a helmet. I don't know if insurance would cover them in an accident or not. Iv'e been riding for around 40 years and luckily never had an accident. I just sold my Harley CVO this past summer. Not sure if I will get another new one or not. So many careless drivers out there these days I'm thinking maybe I should quit while I'm ahead. I have lost to many friends in bike accidents. None of them at fault. People just don't take a second look these days let alone a first look. It's getting worse every day.This guy wanted stability also!

I hear you and agree, but I've also seen careless bike riders sitting in blind spots etc. I haven't ridden one in 50 years, but I know what one should do to be as safe as possible. Expect the worst and you'll get the best usually.Indeed. Although some people don't have to wear a helmet. I don't know if insurance would cover them in an accident or not.

6 cylinder block, on one side, 4 cylinder block on the other, 4 pistons, 3 cylinder cam, 6 cylinder crank 8 valves (that could be 2 or 4 cylinder depending how many valves per cylinder). What kind of engine is he trying to build? That guy needs a bit more focus. Focus Danielsan, Focus.
I always ride in defence mode. When I first started riding somebody said to me that when I put my helmet on just pretend that you are invisible and that nobody can see you. Best advice ever. I just assume everyone on the road is out to get me and ride like they are. I just lost a friend earlier this year. He had just retired two weeks before. Told his wife he was going to a for ride and would be back in an hour or two. He never returned. Had the right of way at an intersection and a woman didn't stop for her stop sign and broadsided him. He was on life support for a week before the family let him go. Was really rough. Doesn't matter whose fault it is when you are dead. Poor guy spent his working life in the hospital ER saving lives. Than to have his taken away by a careless distracted driver. She got a small fine for killing a man because of the highway traffic act.I hear you and agree, but I've also seen careless bike riders sitting in blind spots etc. I haven't ridden one in 50 years, but I know what one should do to be as safe as possible.

I "liked" your post, but that was because of your attitude. Losing a life senselessly is nothing to like, but your story tells just how guarded we all must be.

In my youth I used to enjoy the wind in my hair and the bugs in my teeth, but ice on my faceshield.... nope. To quote B.B. King The Thrill is Gone.
With flying colours Richard.With flying colours....BEER OR SEX
I think this will pass even Rruuff's critical eye
The ice was thick enough. It was that extra 400 pounds of splitter and wing downforce that did it in...
Its for hiding the wheelie bars...maybe??
