    yeah, I've never really seen brake fluid do much damage, and it ain't for tryin. As postit says, this can of paint stripper is really bad news. The paint just cripples up within seconds and cuts thru a few layers. Awesome stuff.
    Someone once told me that shaving cream can discolour paint too, and it goes on your face...??
    Get the big yellow can. You'll love it

    As Brian/D said the old takeout the wing mirror is the best attack, if done right it not only wrecks the mirror but will also damage the panel area around it. A good mate of mine that i rode with for years is now a Motorcycle courier in london ( actually into his 6th yr doing it) and on average he reckons he'll have a close call once a week & get clipped or knocked down monthly, he & the crew he works with (Atomic couriers i think the outfits called) all adhere to the mirror defence.
    2 of the blokes i used to ride with worked in engineering factorys & they used to carry a pocket full of old nuts & bolts, any close calls & the offending vehicle got a handful of these across the bonnet & windscreen which usually effective also.

    They'd never even know.
    Exactly what I was thinking. And thinking the same thing as The_Dover scares me. A lot

    DFWM. "Don't F#$% with motorcyclists" is a message we need to get out there. If your going to spray paint something spray paint that.

    I'd like to see it painted around the country and everyone going, WTF does that mean.

    Kind of like crop circles.

    Do nothing other than shrug shoulders and ignore the twats I say.....not worth taking the chance of having to look over your shoulders next day....they will soon get bored if you do not react cause that is what they are seeking......best to be forgotten not remembered......

    You are a ruthless little **** Postie I'll give you that.

    Bugger to hear about those arseholes mate. I seem to be getting it more and more often in CHCH after moving from Blenheim. The best you can do is just get out of there as fast and as safely as possible. Don't invoke something that might get you hurt or at worst, killed.

    And the temples of his Gods

    Don't stack the odds in their favour.

    Cagers and other road wankers are part of the environment we live in on bikes.

    When you consider how the odds are stacked against us, evasive action and avoidance are still our best protection.

    I must confess riders in the city or urban areas are at greater risk than rural riders.

    If you really want to get even do it when you are less vulnerable than they are.

    Don't get mad. Get smart then get even, make it really count and make it long lasting. Cheers John.

    My opinion is that if retaliation is going to happen, best that you're not on a bike at the time. Best to get the number plate and go visiting one evening. Do the damage then when you're not in danger. As people have said here, you really want to be chased??
    I know that my ZX-10 can outrun a WRX easy-peesy but if I'm sitting at the lights and get knocked forward into traffic by the said irate WRX driver then who's better off ? A bit of paint damage vs a life.....
