I realize there are some people who just think it's hopeless or are worried they will get "screwed". Hey, I can't convince everyone, and I won't try to. I have full respect for them, and I thank them for voicing their concerns respectfully. If you don't want to join, you certainly don't have to. I just hope you'll watch and listen as we move forward and maybe change your minds.
And, I agree with the above quote about never insuring any Cobras, replica or original. Trying to convince them that they are "safe" if they pass inspections is like assuming a real cobra (snake) won't bite if he is happy.
I see the carnage motorcycles (murdercycles) cause. Why they can get insurance is BEYOND ME. A cobra is a four wheeled motorcycle, original, replica or otherwise.

Okay, I agree. At least with regard to Cobra's. I guess I let a little health insurance, Worker's Comp. insurance type experience creep in. Insuarance co.'s are NO angels. though. (Reference REAL 1's prior diatribes on the subject). However, I am quite skeptical about efforts to change their opinion. They are universally blasted by huge organizations such as the AMA, AARP, the press and public opinion, but, seem immune to the criticism, lobbying, cajolling, or whatever. That's what happens when you have a strangle hold on something. (You can't get hospital priveledges if you don't have insurance/ you can't drive on the roads if you don't have car insurance). Control makes them arrogant.
