When I took the MSF class, our instructor said that WA state used to have a tier license system. However, some State Rep from Mercer Island (affluent and Republican) bought a bike and was pissed who couldn't ride it until he got through the tier system. He introduced a bill removing the tier system. So now anyone with a license can ride any overweight Harley they want regardless of experience. I used that opportunity to buy the safest bike available a 600 SuperSport. Great Brakes, turns on a dime, etc. If ridden responsiblely. I digress, I think a tiered system is the best way to go....

Yep. just ride to the XXX drive-in in Issaquah WA on a weekend and watch the overweight baby boomers on their Harleys. You can tell they are weekend riders, cause they are on the verge of out of control and that is just in the parking lot. The have their little leather vests and "DOT" approved skull caps. As my "pack" (a Ninja, Daytona, CBR600R) ride in, the look of disdain is all over their GPTB faces.. Who is squid? i.e. dumb vs wise?

Re: Glory be!

LOL Good one. You might want to "rethink" the term "think tank" when talking about MO. I predict this story will have the typical GPTB response. "Don't take away our freedumb er freedom..."
