"I don't care"

If you notice my maybes are scenarios. Not saying I believe just presenting some situations. Bikers can have a tendency to piss people off. Of course retaliation should never be an option. Presented as scenarios these situations are not necessarily my beliefs and I take exception on the fact this is not realized.
This is a friendly forum and we all have differences of opinion which is expected.

In defense of one or another...I'm sure I've pissed cagers off when I lane-split....and rev my engine...sometimes to get their attention...but oh well, they've pissed me off a time or two....thats just life and I move on...

But I know what you mean about rice rockets...now those guys really piss me off...they go zipping thru traffic like its nothing...they accelerate like a bat outa hell, and they always....always have way better looking chicks on the back than almost any Harley I've seen....sometimes makes me wanna get one...:rolleyes:
 
I agree, but there is as much justification for that behavior as there would be me backing out of my drive attempting to hit the Harley guy that goes by every night because he has loud pipes and wakes my kids...

Please realize I'm on your side. I have driven over 2 million accident free miles in commercial and private vehicles and about 150k has been on a Harley. It's important to look at all sides of an issue. So it's natural for me not to cast aspersions but to try to see all sides in an attempt to diagnose a situation before it becomes a problem. Plus I love reading about cause and effect.
Now we have a discussion going and that is very positive

I've been following this thread since posted and let it stew in my old brain for a bit. I have several thoughts to share:
1) Car driver was texting and it was a coincidence.
2) Car driver does not like motorcycles
3) Car driver does not like assholes on motorcycles
4) Car driver is an old Harley rider that hates rice bikes
5) Car driver just wanted to scare rice bike rider but went over the
line (no pun)
6) Car driver lives just over the hill on the same road. Is sick of this
particular rice riding pr!ck going past his house at 100mph plus
making all kind of racket and is worried about his little kids who
ride bikes up and down the driveway and dometimes like to help
Moma get the mail or take a walk along the road. Car driver is fed
up and over the edge.
7) Car driver is father of teenage daughter who's BF rides rice and is
fed up with his daughter tight little a$$
pumped up on the air on the back of said rice burner.
I suggest there is more to the story than is presented on video

Lmao Bluesbelly.... Right on... Seriously I took most of your post tongue in cheek.. The Last Line is what I walked away with... There is more to the video than was presented.. There always is.
Questions that immediately cropped up for me..
Disclaimer.... We probably will never get answers.. Just opinions...
1. What happened prior to the hit? Was the Old guy just tooling along? Or had these reckless riders done the same STUPID,!! Move prior?
2. If stung by an insect was the bite documented?
3. We're the police called to the scene? Was the old guy field tested? We're the riders field(or hospital tested)
4. Passing on ANY ROAD over a double yellow ,multible vehicles is plain retarded and reckless. Rider deserved the hit IMO.
What was rider doing out there with invalid license ? Invalid? Suspended? No endorsement? What?

I could go on but won't. It's pointless to try to figure out points A,B,C when only D is presented .
Based on what I saw... Old guy was in the wrong. Accidental or on purpose I'll never know. My gut tells me on purpose... Bug sting is bull**** I suspect. Also suspect the riders were taunting and playing long before the wreak. But.. Lol ... All conjecture on my part...

As to taking offense at forum posts? I never do.. What I post is my opinion only. If I post something inaccurately oh well... I ether retract or let it stand.. My opinion is just that.. My opinion and no more valid than the next guys.I look at digital discussions as one sided.. Type...post....reply or not. I rarely take it personally unless the reply is just plain ignorant, malious or the dude is just an asshole looking for a pointless fight. Fortunately. I have let to experience that dude on this site.
Forums are a Fantasric venue for damn near instant information.but at the end of the day it's still a Digital Tennis Match.... Your Serve Folks...

Btw. A similar scenario happened to me twice this weekend.Both times involving 20 something career txters and fortunately I was able to stay whole. I did break my cardinal rule .... Promptly informed both girls at the next light they are assholes and to stupid to breed... So please dont

I am sensing some rice burner haters here.....remember guys we all ride 2 wheels and does it really matter which brand/type?....if your answer is YES then I don't have anything else to say.

I ride both rice burner (ZX12R) and cruiser (Street Glide), I have gone over insane speed on my rice burner but we always have to respect everyone on the road. We all pay tax to share these roads. I will tell you one thing if someone ran me off the road and I am still able to walk after I got hit that person better be moving. That's like someone taking a shot at me and I will not just sit there and get smoked.

Like someone said in another post, all it takes is let these bikers (doesn't matter rice burners or cruisers) go pass you and they are out of your way, you won't see them anymore and all your worries are over. What that guy did was not right, that's a human being and for him to jacked him up like that now he has to deal with all kinds of consequences.....not worth it at all. If he has beef with bikers, find where bikers hang out, be a tough guy and go there to express his anger.....I am sure they'll like to listen to what he has to say....LOL!!!!!
 
That's with every vehicles.....a little HP and people want to use it...nothing wrong with that but do it on the track.......totally agreed with your remark to the riders, like the saying about "gun kill people" B.S. Guns don't kill people people with guns kill people.....

I would do the same if I am the rider on that rice burner....I don't want to smell exhaust following those bikes.....LOL!

The second video is what I hate......there are tracks for doing stupid stunts like that.....ugh!!!!

Imo it doesn't matter what they did to piss the old guy off. What he did was the same thing as pointing a gun at them and pulling the trigger. That sob needs beat within an inch of his life!

I wish there was a way to give a "thumbs up" here....yea, so the biker was wrong for crossing a double yellow, he was wrong for not having more protective gear, he was wrong for getting too close to the car while he was passing...but none of that means a hill of beans to what that driver did....thats inexcusable.
 
Update .... he was arrested!! I can't link it from my phone!!! Dangit!!!

He'll look good in that orange jumpsuit....maybe they'll give him something for his itchy butt....
 
Nice... Happy ending.. I hear the prison remedy for "itchy butt" contains moisturizer as well so he will be fine
