Same.

Only I got sidetracked by the dirt bike fail compilation next door, which I figured had to be a little less of a botty workout.

And featured an obviously fractured radius/ulna within the first 10 seconds.

A very large portion of all of the vid's shown in this thread ... are pure "Cassina" moments. "I'm in the right so I'll be ok" ....

Aside from that ... the rest is just your average day in Auckland traffic ...

I saw earlier that it has had a nosey at the thread

probably should be renamed the Cassina files

That throttle jockey is a Melbourne local so pretty close to Aucks

Heh, at least the cat at the end had things under control. No dogs appeared to have been bowled though...

Love the horn work on the last video.

I'm kind of thinking that relying on the horn and even upgrading it to a louder one is a bit Go Pro ish. I know all the Stebel lovers on KB will hate that but I have always thought that if you have time to use the horn then you have time to move out of harms way, as shown quite well on this video. Stuck behind a vehicle when their reverse lights come on is the only time I can think of that a horn has any real value other than as an audible middle finger.

Or when travelling at the same speed as someone in the next lane that thinks you're just a hole in the traffic.

Paging Darwin to a road nearby...

"Oh, look! That car's starting to pull out. Don't think he's seen me. I'll sound my horn and almost ride into the side of it!"

This muppet takes the cake....lord of the throttle jockeys

And this bloke seriously needs to take a look at his own riding

Fuck me. Yes the drivers are doing stupid things but for gods sake WTF are the riders doing?

All about getting good footage is all I can guess.

Swerving and Stebelling are probably a good combination then.

a loud horn is a bloody good way to wake some of these dreamers up.It is a way to try and modify THEIR behaviour.But it is not a substitue for observation and positioning

Anybody that uses a horn (even a loud Stebel) as a first line of defence needs to give up motorcycling. In 45 years and millions of km I have never felt the need to use a horn when riding.
