wow i couldnt imagine coming out and seeing someone i didnt know (maybe even seeing my friends) sitting on my bike without my permission...i dont know what i would do. where i work there are always kids outside and im always scared that one of them is going to tip over my bike , i think id have to go off if i came out and saw my bike on the ground on its side [:@]

 

I have to go with riders who don't wave. What gives, does a sport bike make me the red headed step-child?

And let me run off topic for just a sec[:@]...this drives me insane. All my cruiser riding friends who told me I was going to kill myself on a sport bike, and they are the ones I see riding around in shorts, cut off shirts, and shorts. AND I'M THE IDIOT ON A SPORT BIKE

Sorry had to vent....

 

Yea that is really annoying. It's the whole image of "suicide bike" WTF makes sports bikes any more dangerous than a harley?! We can turn faster, stop faster, accelerate faster, so basically we can get out of a bad situation faster than skinhead **** joe who wants to mutilate us when he drives by and we wave to him. We've all watched the video of "Harley at Deals Gap" and watched the idiot pass on a double yellow around a corner and into the ditch. He couldn't turn sharp enough he was probably dragging something on his bike, or just sucked. Our bikes are much safer in my opinion.

I hate Yamahas, Suzukis, and Kawasakis... haha just kidding. I hate when every single person with a Mustang GT thinks they have to race no matter where you are or how much traffic there is... and I also hate when you actually will race someone but they jump the light and then look at you at the next light like "yeah that's right I beat you" (that never happened to me but my friend had it happen one time and he never shuts up about it )

I also hate when I see people on the road and I throw up the wave and they don't wave back... even if they didn't see me. The whole point is that you're looking out for your fellow rider so pay attention!

Also I hate when I see old guys riding and smoking at the same time that annoys the **** out of me.

I also hate when people I don't even know will see me with my jacket and helmet at the checkout line at best buy or the grocery store and tell me they could beat my *** in a race on their bike even though they have no idea how good a rider I am or what kind of bike I ride... (one time an asst. manager at best buy did this to me and I told him I would " beat him like a little b-i-t-c-h if he talked to me like that again... keep in mind I'm 6'8 and he was like 5'5 and skinny as hell ... needless to say he tried to talk **** while he walked away but I called him out on it again and he pretended like he didn't hear me... lol)

I like this post

 

What the heck?! Where do you people live?! I walked into best buy and the chick at the door just kept asking me what bike I ride and I just said a huffy. hahahaha I wasn't in the mood to talk to some dumb broad. Eventually I went up to customer service and I guess she was the manager up there and so we eventually started talking and shes like what do you ride I ride a blah blah blah, I don't remember what she said because I honestly didn't care to talk to her. So I just said an 06 F4i and shes like oh well is that a 600, a 700, a 900, a 1000? I just said it's an old bike that is now out of production and shes like "oh." hahahaha Stupid chick.

 

I think this was mentioned previously, but my biggest bitch is a person driving a huge SUV while talking on a cell phone, and barely paying attention to the road. I count a few everytime I go riding who are too absorbed in their phone call to keep there ridiculously large vehicle driving in a straight line. If they can't even drive correctly, you can be sure they don't see you on your bike.

 

Here is one for ya:

I hate when you park in a busy parking lot, and when you go to leave people stop and wait for your spot, not realizing you have to let your bike warm up. If you wave one cager by, there is always another one that will come up and try again, and get pissed because you aren't leaving quick enough for them.

Happens to me every day at work because the mall I am at doesn't have bike parking anywhere, and they give tickets for parking on the sidewalk.

 

That's when you hop off and unzip your jacket and start arbitrarily playing with things on the bike. At christmas time a few years ago I had some woman follow me in her car in the parking lot of a mall when I was walking to my car. I kept stopping at different cars that weren't mine with keys in hand and she finally gave up and drove off.

-pot holes, man holes, train track crossings ext.
-Radar/laser speed traps

thats all i could think of off the top of my head...lol..quite a bit..

 

1. people in minivans who you pass on a side street because they are not doing the speed limit and they honk and flick you off.

2. pulling up to a group of riders and not a one will talk to you.

3. having people tell me that i will drop my bike and i better get sliders on it.(why do they care)

4. automatic sprinklers in the grass on the median at this shopping center. They put more water on the street than the grass.

5. missouri weather. 60% chance of rain and no rain. 30% chance of rain and it rains. The fact that there is always a 30% chance of rain at least all year long
