yes its a excessivly loud exhaust,
but the white car driver has accused me of being dangerous ,
the small wiggle you see is my left boot hitting the pavement , not exzatly life threatening



fire away



I would not say you were dangerous. But I would expect that you were breaking the speed limit by a lot . Not that I have a problem with that.

Loss of control with your boot hitting the tarmac (even for a short period) is dangerous. Showing a vid of you on a bike in a 50 km/hr area with the speedo clearly visible is dangerous. If police view that ... they could mail YOU a ticket ... with no worries of you getting off it. (They've done it plenty of times)
Sticking close to the centerline on the road to Portobello might be construed as dangerous too ... given the number of numtys that cut corners ... and especially on that road too ...

OH and Merry Christmas to you too .. :killingme

80 km's showing at the end. 30 over ... not dangerous .. ??

Some quota gatherers might see things a little different. (almost attempted suicide :innocent:)

You idiot! Did you not hear the guy in the red shirt and black shorts with the black dog telling you to slow down?

Please post the view from inside the white car.

What if you little 'boot hitting, nothing to see here' wobble ended with you on your arse and underneath his car. That would be a memorable Xmas for all wouldn't it?

From his point of view it probably looked like you were about to run wide given the strange line you took.

And if you're gonna try carving a corner maybe ya should put your toe on the peg so ya don't give yerself a fright?

Oh and merry Xmas..............

Nothing dangerous in that, you were not even close to the centre line.

Old geezer driving car was it, prolly hates bikers.

Looks to be at least semi residential? Were you exceeding the speed limit?

Choose your time and place, that isn't the smartest. Screw up and you're landing in a car, they cut the corner and you're also in trouble.

By your actions, you are reducing your opportunities in a "what if" scenario.

Attracting unwanted attention is a good indication that you should slow down a bit or at least get a quieter exaust.

An opinion, too close to the centre line, no margin for error, theirs or yours. Too fast, I saw 80 indicated. Posted speed limit was?

You should always be mindful of using a camera in your defence, they have a habit of proving you wrong.

, im looking at repacking my exhaust should quieten it up a bit, and my new rear shock should help with the boot dragging

Google Maps ... Portobello road, Dunedin.

The harbour on one side, cliff faces on the other (if you don't clobber a car first) He wouldn't be the first biker to chuck his bike in the drink ... in Dunedin. (on either side of the harbour)

That area is 50 km's as I recall.
