    posted by a Suzuki rider... who as usual is so intent on 'going fast' does'nt bother to check everything is being done correctly before 'zooming off'

    Is he talking about this one?

    You can see at the end the group is pulling left but the front dude (who is in the middle of the road at this point) is indicating right?

    Why is that a problem? being in that position means he is placed for the best forward visibility as well as within the site line of any oncoming traffic.

    Big deal. Someone indicated wrong and two others didn,t indicate. People expect bikes to indicate badly. Bike riders expect cars to indicate badly. Makes you more careful doesn,t it?
    Who hasn,t ridden for literally miles with an indicator on?

    And forcing other (much wider) vehicles well over to their side, and those white lines are slippery doncha know!

    Not on the white line, next to it, you can always pull further in to your lane for safety as any oncoming vehicles approach.

    Granted, not so easy if you are riding the Chips method down the road though

    Not needed on urban stuff regardless, maybe open raod but I'd still be in the rhs wheel track as it clearer of debri (except when tar bleeding). And the plonker didn't pull in when a car came past btw...

    Modern Harleys have self cancelling indicators I believe.

    I think you mean 'modern' harleys, the air quotes make all the difference here
