    How do you react after being cut off?

    Already covered - yes i know. But how do you react when an Altezza cuts you off?

    EDIT: yes, these videos are lame and i didn't really get cut off - i understand this happens to most people everyday - i've only been recording for 2 weeks so its all the footage i had. The first vid was posted as a demonstration of a reaction, the second was posted just because i had it .

    its louder than you think, the lil microphone doesn't do it justice (carbon fiber muffler + a hole further down) - Wouldnt be surprised if the poor girl just added 'deaf' to her impairment list.

    I like boy racers who cut me off, because I like to filter beside them at the lights and give them the impression that If we were to race I would never beat them.. then leave them at the lights, Or old people are fun, Ride up beside them and just stare at them.

    Though I wouldn't recommend getting angry because you will learn a new kind of rage, called road rage which will cause you to follow someone home and throw your helmet through their windscreen.. As for your situation consider buying an air horn and mounting it under your fairings, you can fit the compressor under the pillion seat

    I'm surprised you didn't hear the thunderous roar down in Dunedin . Air horn sounds like a good plan to stealthily hook up to my (1 week learner) friends bike. He's always hitting the horn instead of the indicator .

    Looks like fairly normal driving in any urban area to me. "Oh look, the lane next to me is stationary, I wonder which car is going to change lanes in front of me?"

    Happens so often that it's not worth getting worked up about. You'll give yourself a heart attack and blow up that intimidating sewing machine.

    People who drive Alteezas/Subarus/Skylines and BMWs all come out of the same mold.

    There's no such thing as a blind spot. It's a too fucking lazy to look properly spot.
    It's only when you take the piss out of a partially shaved wookie with an overactive 'me' gene and stapled on piss flaps that it becomes a problem.
