i was going to workout today and for the people that live in the chicago land area you may know where randall road is, well i west on hopps which turns into randall road and i seen in my rear view mirror a gsxr, r1, and looked like a kawasaki ninja. the first thing that pissed me off were that litterally they were a inch away from my bumper and i was sort of on a hill, so i rolled a little back thank god i didnt hit them.

i proceeded to make a left on the arrow and head down to the gym were i workout and i was not driving crazy by any means they came up fast on me all three of them just riding my ass whereever i went they went. Well before i get to the gym there are three lights, i make it through 2 of them and get stopped by the third one (of coarse). And these fucks once again an inch off my bumper. the light turns green i didnt take off cause i was almost at my destination and i was letting the turbo cool down. so as i took off the 3 of them stayed back and right before i was going to signal right to go into the right lane.

The fuck on the gsxr flys by me doing a wheelie down the center of dotted line of the road. I let him pass i make a lane change and the other fucks do the same thing but in the lane they were in (left lane). I looked at them shook my head and went into fitness 19 to lift.

so my question is why motorcyclist do stupid shit like that. I mean if i wasnt paying attention to them i might have hit them the one time cause i was about to change lanes.

comments or anyone have any crazy motorcycle stories?

edit* not all motorcyclist are douches that is all :rockon:

whoa whoa whoa....not everyone with a bike is a douche. just like not everyone with rims on thier car is a ricer....

i had cbr600rr. i did wheelies and stoppies, split traffic, and rode fast. But i tried not to be a horrible person on the bike.

and, for a story, 5 or 6 guys from the boat and I were riding down the 8 in SD towards the 15, doing like 90. we pass 3 black and whites, they light us up and get behind us. all of us pull over and start talking to the cops. they appreciate the military, no ticket, handshakes all around. as we are pulling out, one of the cops pulls out to let us out and another bike (don't know who) flys down the lane he is pulling into doing a wheelie. 2 of the guys i was riding with follow the wheelie guy to a store and call the cops. same ones that pulled us over show up, arrest the guy, and tow the bike.

that and running and hiding from cops in PB on saturday nights after pulling wheelies down the main drag

Hypocritical d-bags much? Y'all got someone arrested for doing the same thing you did, because he was on one wheel?

With that being said, the first thing he said is true. I ride fast, split lanes and run shoulders in traffic. It's fun, and less dangerous to you than a caged doing the same, for the most part.

Matt, if you say something about milkshakes, I'll come to Carlisle just to poke you with a stick :smile:

Not all motorcyclists are douchebags. But it's become a recent trend lately, meaning everyone thinks they're "cool" to have a bike. Aka a LOT of fucking assholes on bikes. I hate all these damn "crews" and shit that have formed.

Coming from someone that loves bikes, the new riders can suck a fuck. :thefinger:

There were some assholes on bikes 30 years ago and the same is still true today. Hell, we can say the same thing about caged drivers too.

Until Im shown one person on a "sport bike" who doesnt ride like a jackass you're all bad people sorry.

I can deal with the people on sport bikes doing things like this. It really doesnt bother me until Im trying to change lanes, and they're splitting a lane. And even then, theyre always going fast, so it only takes an extra second or two to move over.

What I hate, in this area, are the older guys on Harleys. Now, I love Harleys, but do they really need to hit the rev limit in every gear, with straight pipes, at all times of the day and night? I mean really. I have a straight piped diesel truck, and I dont get on it, or rev it past 1000rpm in the evening/night. And I dont do it during the day in town either.
