We petrolheads really are at a point where we're being pushed out of cars and into motorcycles, wouldn't you agree?

How many cars these days can you buy that are small, pure and don't come with 400kg of infotainment and other pointless, expensive, unreliable creature comforts?

Granted, ABS in mandatory in the Soviet Union 2.0 but even then motorcycles are still better is just about every way.

Plus the normies that are ruining things for us in the car world are too cowardly to ride one anyway, so there's that as well.

I feel car disparity has shrunk, as small cars have gotten larger, and larger cars have got smaller. The other day I saw a Fiesta behind some kind of large SUV and the disparity wasn't as large as you'd see in a 1980's Festiva and a Jeep Wagoneer.

Do you think the average chav in the UK has access to a gun? Even the organised crime doesn't really use them. Maybe that's because gun control works if it's implemented properly? Chicago can't really do much if all the surrounding region is guns galore

IIRC there used to be a lot of guns in Belfast, wonder where they all got to huh?
