Default Slow the ef down on your crotch rocket

I don't care if you have a Yamaha YZF-R1 or Ducati 1098 S, stop thinking you're in a race. It's not. It's a public roadway with a speed limit. You also look like a complete tool. Slow down. I'm almost to the point of cutting you off when you go flying by at 150 km/h in an 80 zone.

For effect:











Idiots.

Yeah, I had a guy weaving and running up between vehicles on 36th yesterday in a 60 zone. He was doing at least 90.

I'm with you on the speeding on public roads.

But you need to be slapped if you think cutting a biker off is a good way to reinforce your point. Most motorcycle accidents are not the fault of the pilot.

...not all bikers drive like A holes.

Not all macabre photo's lifted from accident scene's are the fault of the "arrogant" biker.

Not all drivers on four wheels use mirrors.

It's respect, it works both ways.

But... keep this in mind before you cut off a motorcyclist traveling faster than yourself.

Although the timing could have been a lot, lot better, I understand your point. However I don't think today is the day to be venting about some random biker who was going too fast.

I'm an old guy and I ride what some would call a crotch rocket and I speed too on country roads. I'd hate to think some jerk is going to cut me off just because of my ride and they're having a bad day. Lots of people here are self admitted speeders, so what's with the hate for bikers. I don't do wheelies or other tricks, I ride alone so I'm not racing, I just like to keep up a good pace when I feel it's safe. The main thing I've learned in my years of riding and professional driving is not to get upset with what the other guy is doing unless it's extremely impeding my progress. There are some stupid riders out there but there's far more stupid and incompetent drivers who cause most of the motorcycle accidents.
