    ZX10R squid poser?

    Who is the poser squid that rides the Fruju Orange 07 ZX10R?

    Thought it interesting when he came up and pulled in front of me at the lights, full akrapovic exhaust system, iridium screen and various other goodies - how the fuck can a uni student afford such a bike... he obviously can't afford a jacket otherwise he would have been wearing more than just a t-shirt and gloved for protective gear.

    Lights go green and we both turn down right to go past the business building down to the motorway. Mr Squid shows rolls up to the next lights draggin both his feet for 5m before he stops - obviously not wanting to drop it. This time I pull up on the other side of the bike and see some good signs of a decent low side. Scratched up fairings and a decent hole in the upper fairing.

    Anyway, after negotiating the next few intersections at not a lot of speed it was obvious he didnt like corners too much, as my old school CB650 had no trouble going around him without breaking the speed limit - so i'm now in front of him at the next set of lights.

    Lights go green and I turn hard right, then hard left on to the motorway, and continue to accelerate up to just over 100kmh... Mr Squid then decides to open up the ZX10R and passes about 1m in front of me, swerving to the otherside of the road to pass the vehicle in front of me. I 'give chase' enough to keep him in view without pissing off any other road users, and see him flying through the interchage at a good 150-160kmh and almost impale himself into the back of a car changing lanes to head west.

    If any of you know him, tell him to pull his head in. If I ever meet him, bring your steak knifes, because there will be some serious beef going down.

    It's better to not pass and know that you could have than to pass and find out that you can't. Wait for the straight.

    It's about par for the course for a day anywhere in Auckland innit?

    Funnily enough, 99% of the people I tend to ride with aren't squids. And those that are still seem to be able to keep themselves in check. This guy put me in unneccesary danger simply to show off how small his cock is. And that doesn't sit well with me.

    Might just be me, but "passing" a show-offy squid who is on a rather faster bike with a straight just coming up wouldn't have been what I'd've done.

    I'd've let him stay ahead but kept him in sight (with a box of popcorn) waiting for the next crash.

    I didn't 'pass' him, I was in a different lane, and didn't feel the need to practice my 'low speed' control.

    Call me sadistic but I was hoping he was going to contact the rear bumper of the car, would have been rather spectacular.

    Dunno, there are a few on campus who have serious financial backing (and as such, buy the biggest they can for their first bike)...

    Feel free to apply and rectify that situation.

    And he is well a hoon, but from what i know he has the skills to back up his riding.He had a lowside not to long ago.

    Only a matter of time for a fuckstick like that.

    Some people are only alive because it is illegal to shoot them.

    Pot Kettle Black? Yeh sure, I didn't put anyone in danger keeping him in sight, for what it's worth I didn't even break the speed limit keeping him in sight, he was probably 150-200m in front of me when he nearly rear ended the car.

    I downgraded to the CB650 by choice, previous bike was a GSXR1000K3 which was handled with much more respect and precision than this hamfisted throttle jockey.

    If you think i'm not fit to be a mentor then feel free to raise the point with those running the programme.

    I wasn't aware that you attend the University of Auckland.

    Theres a little Korean motorcycling group in Auckland. Money is what they have and skill is what they don't. Might be one of them?

    Nah, I wasn't one of em sorry... Couldn't be bothered joining their Friday night rides, from town to Mission Bay...


    If you can make it on Kiwibiker you can make it anywhere.
