People intimidating motorcyclists

[-df-]

Most people don't do hard launches from every set of lights, do they?

Generally not...I don't do that anymore...the Evo's clutch is a little spungy now

I was talking about the car/bikes general ability to get to a certain speed from stopped...a 0-100 is a good indication of this.

Actually its majorly dependant on the substance between the drivers ears.

Don't worry too much about the clutch, it's the gearbox you've got to think of the most. Try finding a cheap one that's not fucked.

Wankers are everywhere. They are in SUV's, trucks, granny cars, on motorcycles, pushbikes, on foot.

I'm the first to admit I'm a nana rider. I don't tailgate, which seems to occasionally give drivers of other vehicles on the highway the idea that I am inviting them to squeeze in front of me. I usually just let it go as they have already demonstrated a lack of consideration, so I'm not about to test the lengths of their stupidity by getting aggressive. Having said that, when it's been done in an dangerous place, I may have been known to hold my finger on the horn for quite some time.

Getting back to the original post, I read with interest the suggestions for horn honking, weaving around, reving a noisy exhaust, etc. I'd feel like a complete wanker myself doing that, and wouldn't want to risk aggravating the situation, just to be staunch.

Nana out.

Mr Carver, and if you don't know, when someone you don't know calls you MISTER it's usually because they've taken a sudden and detrimental dislike to you.
i knowa number of very good riders who also happen to be women.You've pulled a long bow string here mate, explain yourself, lol.

Well its bad enough having to ride a scooter AND a honda one but if I use the horn its sounds like a salutation from a 'Road Runner' cartoon.....cars take it seriously? Yeah Rite!

Yea I found when I was on my scooter (Vespa PX200) I used to attract a bit of unwarrented aggression by idiotic selfish drivers - on the loud debaffled thruxton it has diminished significantly - probably cos I look a bit more like a badass hells angel on the Triumph. I actually occassionally get drivers moving over so I can split more effectively.

I think confidence and decisiveness (as has already been mentioned) are the key.

Nothing gets me more worked up than a cute leather clad butt on a streetfighter in front of me... world would be a sad depressing place without biker chicks

Impossible to resist!

I'm not even riding 2 abreast - just using the 2 metres of road width I'm entitled to.

You'll end up as a hood ornament, then a windscreen ornament, then a roof ornament...
