NYPD Took everything. Broke into someone's scooter.
by adelie (Posted Wed, 01 Sep 2010 13:40:52 GMT)
I'm lucky I took the train today.

I just witnessed the NYPD taking every bike from 47th and Vanderbilt today. I even videoed a few cops breaking into a scooter with a screwdriver.

Suggestions for first Motorcycle?

The Rebel 250 is a perfect bike for riding in town easy to handle, 50 - 60 mpg. The Rebel will have more power, and it wont cost alot.
This was my first bike and I still love it, there is no better bike out there, period! You will get a lot of respect for starting small. :wink:

Have you tried eaglerider? They have a very good collection of motorbikes for a reasonable price.
