New CB 350

[GoldOxide_imp]

Can't imagine it's any more dangerous than motoring down the interstate at 75 mph and the tractor trailer rig in front of you loses a retread and flings big chucks of tire all over the road. Or the dood in the lifted pickup driving aggressively because he feels taller than everyone else on the road. Or the soccer mom in the Suburban who's on her cell phone and changes lanes without checking her mirrors. Or...

Almost all of my "near misses" have come from the idiocy of other drivers. Only one has come from my own idiocy

All realistic daily freeway scenarios.

I almost had my neck sliced open on the truck retread example. Fortunately continuous shoulder checks and a spritely CB750S allowed me to move lanes quickly enough to avoid airborne rubber 'n' steel and swerving cars.
