    Solly if this one has been on jaropnik:

    Taken from a 1962 Honda Motor Cycle Owner’s Manual.
    Translated by Honda for the American Motorcycle Rider

    1. At the rise of the hand by Policeman, stop rapidly.
    Do not pass him by or otherwise disrespect him.

    2. When a passenger of the foot, hooves in sight, tootel the horn
    trumpet melodiously at first. If he still obstacles your passage,
    tootel him with vigor and express by word of mouth, warning Hi, Hi.

    3. Beware of the wandering horse that he shall not take
    fright as you pass him. Do not explode the exhaust box at him.
    Go soothingly by.

    4. Give big space to the festive dog that makes sport
    in roadway. Avoid entanglement of dog with wheel spokes.

    5. Go soothingly on the grease mud, as there lurks the
    skid demon! Press the brake foot as you roll around
    the corners, and save the collapse and tie up.

    Please, please, please spell "tires" correctly...!

    We're tired of seeing "tyres" because it's spells / sounds almost like "tries" by some middle school dropout kids.

    @Theimbellis: Whats wrong with a Y in the place of an I? Also get out of your house once in a while, parts of Europe, most of Asia and all of Australia use Tyres instead of Tires.

    @PowerTryp: Remember American's have sold most of thier vowels on TV shows. This is why they have ruff's and not roofs, having all of those vowels was too much school work. The "sometimes y" was the first to go.
