*couGH COUgh* @#$%^ BUSSES!!!

[SARGE]

ok.. im sure you have all been riding along in Auckland on any given weekday morning during rush hour.. pulled up alongside or behind one of those " Loser Cruisers" and when the light changed felt like you were in a shower stall at Auchwitz..


WHY IN THE HELL DO THEY POINT THE @#$%^@#$%^@ EXHAUST RIGHT IN MY GODDAMN FACE??? i pulled up next to one this AM .. and when i got to work, there was a black smoke stain on my fucking jeans and fairing from where he accelerated off the light (GO THE MOTHERFUCKING GREEN PARTY!!)

back in the 'uncivilized' USA.. it is law that busses and trucks mount thier tailpipes above Cab level.. you will never see a tailpipe at street level on a large vehicle for this very reason..why cant NZ do this?? to hard an engineering problem? . lazy? TRYING TO KILL ME?


and you whingers bitch about my second hand ciggy smoke...

:endrant:

[sunhuntin]

yep, not much fun on a push bike either...remember that from my student days at school...though on a wet and rainy day, was a decent way to warm up!

btw, i rather like second hand smoke, the smell at least and feel weird to be dating a guy who doesnt! LOL. puff away :doobey:

[Waylander]

Question is, why did you not filter up past him?
If I can do it on my bike in Auckland yours should be a cake walk.

[avgas]

Strange that most people thing you can get away servicing diesels the same amount of times (or less :sick: ) then petrols.....

[James Deuce]

Every time I bump into a diesel all I can think is, "Carcinogenic particulates."

Bump into a two-stroke and I inhale deeply.

What is that about?

i was up next to him.. ( stuck between 22 of them actually on K' Rd.. they squeze you tight up around John Andrew Ford and ive seen pushies get trapped in there..)

theres also a little matter of DEPTH PERCEPTION....:doh:

2 strokes dont pump 3 metric tons of black smoke at you at a light...

i got yelled at by some old bag in a diesil Pajero IN A FREAKING COUNTDOWN PARKING LOT for smoking on my bike.. she was getting into her Wankmobile parked next to me and she cuts loose..apparently i was " polluting her air"

That's when you exhale in her face and say, "Have you smelled your smelledyou exhaust lately?"

[The_Dover]

Or just ask her "Did you have dog shit for lunch and forgot to brush your teeth lady?"

Yours is better, I conceed.

Ha ha you need a two smoker. Give Petal's oil pump cable a yank and rev the throttle and she'll disappear completely in the smoke cloud!

[Lou Girardin]

I'm sorry, but buses are clean and green and are going to be the saviour of Aucklands transport woes.


If they can only get people to use the stinking, disease ridden, mobile culture labs. Bring on avian flu, that'll be the final nail in the coffin of these f'in things.

[zeRax]

hahaha, id go with jim2' and then xions method. phantom biker :D! fucken bus's, just been back reading threads cause ive been away, holy crap at markaucklands mini bike, what a radical bus driver !

[Devil]

Speaking of stinky things. I joined the motorway last night (7:30pm ish) not far behind a cattle truck. My god, I thought I was going to fill my helmet. The bastard was doing over 100km/h as well so I had to give it a bit of a poke to catch him and get past. BLEARGH!

[ManDownUnder]

It's one of the things on my "checklist" while riding - before stopping behind or beside a vehicle I check to see where the exhaust is and I stay away from it.

Even cars.

Buggered if I want to sit in a jet of crap if I can avoid it.

Re the truck - don't know why they can get away with it, but it reminds me ogf a mate of mine (a wee bit of a practical joker) from Pahiatua... used to drive trucks and he had one with the exhaust at just the right height...

Sitting stopped at a give way (or whatever) he'd yell out the driver's side to the car next to him, get the drivers attention so they'd wind the window down... then plant boot just as he was taking off and fill the car with smoke.

He'd be a very hated man, but he got his kicks.

He's the same guy that was employed at a Power Company as their safety officer. He kept a 12kV step up transformer as a jacobs ladder (HUGE potentially lethal voltage drawing brilliant crackly arcs) on his DESK.

Nutter - but a good guy

[Swoop]

Buses... yeah.

The "road whale" 4x4s that are now too polluting to be driven in japan are now here. Why do the owners not get the injectors cleaned??? Just wonderful when they lay down their own smokescreen when accelerating away from the lights (if you can loosely call it acceleration...)

[jrandom]

TRYING TO KILL ME?

Yup. The culling of the Murkns has begun.


squeze you tight up around John Andrew Ford and ive seen pushies get trapped in there...

Oh yes. I've been trapped by a bus on me pushy at that intersection. It are scary.

[SARGE]

bring it on sunshine :stoogie:

[Xtat1k]

those bus drivers are absolute wankers, iv had a few close calls with them

[Oakie]

Lubricated the carbies on my Z400 with sewing machine oil many years ago (seemed like a good idea at the time). Talk about land of the long white cloud! Thought I'd poked my bike until I realised what was going on. :doh:

[ZTHOU]

[jrandom]

He Sarge,why don't you use some of your Marine skills to deal with the twat,shd be easy for you

Why, yes!

He could use his numchuck skills and his bowhunting skills.

*That'd* learn 'em.

[Lou Girardin]

He Sarge,why don't you use some of your Marine skills to deal with the twat,shd be easy for you

Yeah, use his marine skills to deal with fish.


Ok Ok, I'm just trawling now.

Keep an eye out for Gary Johnson (sp?). Bloody funny guy but mad as a meat axe.

He's a sparky but what he's doing now - I have NO idea...

[SARGE]

Yeah, use his marine skills to deal with fish.

We are both very sick people, addicted to the chemical Adrenelin - common in most two strokes.
Long life the Kerosene Cowboy, you will never supress us!!!!
That or the fact they put rasberry flavour in the oil.....makes nice mixers with vodka.....AH the good old hostel days
