Are the sports bike riders the New Bad Guys?

[Hellzie]

What do you guys think, have the sport bike riders become more hated than the Harley rider in the general public's eyes?

Wait, I thought the general public couldn't see bikes?

You could argue against that actually I cant remember when it was, but it was from a US survey asking motorcyclists if they obeyed the law, 99% of all motorcyclists asked said yes, leaving 1%.
Thus your 1% patches and gangs and what not.

So you could argue a bulk number of ricers and their riders are '1%ers'.
But I know what your saying,

I think its two different views, I think sportsbike riders are more classed as crazy and dangerous rather than intimidating

Funny you should ask this. I was having a chat to a good mate of mine Dubbs last night. He's from philadelphia, but has also lived in New York and a few other states as well. He was saying how over in the states, most of the guys that ride sports bikes are the type of arrogant arseholes who are looking for a fight every timethey leave home, so he was surprised to see a totally different attitude from all the sportsbike riders here in enzed.

as for this 1% thing, why are they called 1%ers?
I always assumed that it was because the meathead knuckledraggers that joined gands were retarded as their brain function was only 1% of that of a normal person?

C'mon Tim, do a little research - or stop trollin'

Ya MUST have heard of the "99% of motorcyclists are not trouble makers' sort of thing.??

Leaving (ta-dah!) 1% to be the law-breaking trouble-makers!

It came from the A.M.A. 'way back in the day...

[DrunkenMistake]

Don't delude yourself D.M, ya look NOTHING like that

And, sadly, I have to tell you that a pimply faced oik like you ain't going to intimidate NOBODY!

To be fair though it kind of looks like Hayd3n .. Haha

Well ninjas (jap stealth warriors, not kwakas) are supposed to be invisible so ricers should fit the profile...

Oh, and I'm sure I look nothing like that caricature; it's not what I see in the mirror when I get up in the morning, thankfully.

having said that, "high pitched obnoxious exhaust", well..... enough said.

Sometimes my sense of humour is so obscure that I'm the only one who gets it.

Less subtle would have worked better... and maybe some sterotypical discrimination added in for good measure

..."so what were you doing with a gun, didn't you swap all that land for muskets?" would have found you a wider audience and taken this thread off course waaay sooner

[98tls]

Must have been the booze, booze causes sooo much trouble, yeah, has to be the booze that's the problem...

Booze is good,its the booze hag you wake up with........thats the start of the problem,begins with them taking soooo farking long to get the 2 sizes to small leathers over there bumps.

Sport bikers are bad like guidos are manly.

Yeah .. that might have been funnier .. but you're assuming it was me holding the gun .... WRONG . it was me looking at the wrong end of it in the hands of a drugged out lunatic .. who also happened to be one of the palest Pākehā you could imagine (apart from an albino)

You didn't actually state that it was someone else holding the gun in your original post, although it was obvious that's what you meant.

Inferring you were the gun toting lunatic was the funny bit - at least I thought so.

Haven't you learnt it's not wise to make jokes at 1%ers ...
