that was not a rusty chain....that was rust trying to look like a chain.

[muscleman351]

"And um all it is HOLY SHIT look at that rusty chain" LMFAO!!!!

[ericbkny]

Also even if u leave plates on.... Sure traffic agents can't ticket u Bc u don't have a scannable registration and they use the machines... But again if nypd wanna fck with u they can... Sometimes they don't care though... Seen them ticket and seiZe in bk tho I'm a cab driver in parkslope see that shit all the time -.-

[ericbkny]

You do realize cops/Marshall's can classify your vehicle (the motorcycle) as abandoned if it has no license plates. If they wanted to be pricks they can seize it.

[jorgecornet]

@ericbkny i have yet to experience someone doing this..

[willdex01]

I don't own a motorcycle or a scooter. Don't you have to have some sort of a registration or insurance like on cars? If yes, isn't it an identifiable info?

[jorgecornet]

@willdex01

how do you find your insurance on your car? do you have some sort of sticker?

[willdex01]

@jorgecornet The car insurance you keep in the glove compartment. The registration, however, is clearly visible outside the car, on the windshield (with the VIN). The VIN is tied to the registration. The VIN may not be exactly what they need, but it will tie the car to your plate.

[jorgecornet]

@willdex01

oh the vin ..sure..but a lot bike's vin's are well tucked away under fairings, forks, and frame..so it's a pain in the ass which they don't really do..

[montoyaohboya1]

@willdex01 the registration is a piece of paper and a sticker which you place on....you got it, the license plate. So you carry the insurance card and registration in paper format tucked away in your jacket and take the plate off that also has the sticker that shows that your bike is registered (mine's just a little red square that has the number 11 for 2011)

OMG that bike chain... if the chain is that bad I wonder what else :/

[kb3gjp123]

Wow NYC is that bad. I live near Washington DC and no one takes their tag off when they park.

[jorgecornet]

@kb3gjp123

over 8.5 million million live here...they have to keep it together...nyc is considered #5 safest city in the world...you should see how many cops there are everywhere...its a good thing and bad thing for when you're trying to have a little extra fun

[Quentyn73]

"Shadow... I am not sure who's making this"

It is HONDA!

The bike with the rusty chain is also Honda, Hornet if am I not mistaken.

[jorgecornet]

@Quentyn73

i had to look it up....but i clearly put honda on my video....and that bike with the rusty chain is not a honda its a yamaha r6...nice try quentyn

[Quentyn73]

@jorgecornet :) You are a real connoisseur then. This rusty chain is however indicative that the bike has not been driven recently.

[patrick1wtf]

Ashame that someone treats his bike like that R6 ..

Great vid doh ;)

[jorgecornet]

@patrick1wtf

i agree 100%

[JimNtexas]

That R1 owner is ruining a nice bike!

[jorgecornet]

@JimNtexas

it's actually an r6

[CZroe]

Many cities will tow and ticket if registration is not current and it's not in a garage. No tag=registration ticket. And what do you do if the cop is waiting to see you get on and affix your tag? Flipping or hinged plate mounting hardware is illegal in many places as I am sure Velcro is.

Thy said, I want to use Velcro with an undertail for a semi-flush mount. Is it possible to get the stuff in a matching blue color? ;)

[jorgecornet]

@CZroe

haha

[apricotsnms516]

without the license plate and without much security in the middle of new york you could really get away with that thing

[apricotsnms516]

hmmmm anyone have some clippers? :D

[jorgecornet]

@apricotsnms516

clippers?

[apricotsnms516]

@jorgecornet yeah like hedge clippers lol

[cdwolf]

It would be my luck to have my velcroed plates stolen and put on a "hot" bike.

[jorgecornet]

@cdwolf

that would super suck

[67kneil]

I like your intros and how you show bits of what your city is like

[jorgecornet]

@67kneil

yea i'm looking to upgrade my style..

[bfmv580]

Holy shit that chain! The velcrow idea is good though.

[jorgecornet]

@bfmv580

yea i like the velcro too...except the fact they may tow your bike

[Sxybutchgrrl]

Well,.if a cop wanted to give u a ticket and thr is no plate,..wht wd stop him from gettn pissed and just havn tha shit towed away? That's how the cops r here in Cali,..that shit would not fly lol

[67kneil]

@Sxybutchgrrl I think with the crazy city traffic that it would take days to get a towtruck down there

[jorgecornet]

@67kneil

beleive me they love tickets out here...

[jorgecornet]

@Sxybutchgrrl

they could tow it..so you have to keep an eye on it.

[icharm425]

WOW that chain was disgusting!! I don't think the Velcro thing would fly down here in the "A" imaging trying to get your bike back from the impound with no tag lol ...they would tow your shit b4 you got in the building lol

[jorgecornet]

@icharm425

where is the A...Atlanta?....yea i would just claim some one stole my tag and then give them the VIN

[canis002]

woah!!! loved the ideia!!!

velcro!!! so simple!

and DAMN!!! THAT CHAIN IS RUSTY!

[jorgecornet]

@canis002

i would love to buy the bike from whomever and fix it..and clean it up...except i think it has no owner

[sinblesser]

He probably forgot that bike. T_T

[jorgecornet]

@sinblesser

man what an ass...who leaves a nice r6 like that out?

[bikercc]

i cant stand it when people leave there bikes outside like that, especially the guy with the nice r6, i hope he didn't abandon it!! Where I live if someone leaves there bicycle in the same place for a week its gone.

[jorgecornet]

@bikercc

i'm going to have to leave my bike out here in nyc...but i have a waterproof bike cover and plenty of lube to avoid that crap.....

[Nissanskyline1800]

ha, good to know.. I wish this stuff would fly in Seattle, unfortunately they'll tow you for anything here

[jorgecornet]

@Nissanskyline1800

there is always away around anything
