Bloody! See reply to BigI's post.
What is it about Ovlovs? I remember that there was "supposed" to be a
report about bikes vs Ovlovs in accidents, but I have never seen any such
report.
I've seen Ovlovs do stupid things on the road, but I have also seen other
marques, as well as plenty of bikes act the tit. Did it all start with an
urban myth or the side lights on during the day that has tarred Volvo with
this brush?
Is it the motorcycling equiv of people who slag off HD, with out having
riden them?
