Couldn't take it!

[RHYNOXB9R]

I went on a Poker Run on Sunday,it was a benefit run for The Northbay Childerens Diabetes Foundation,a good cause,my father has Diabetes.There were only two Buells there,a 08 xb12r and me,the rest were Harleys.What piss pour attitudes I came accross and had to deal with.Eyes rolling and the why did you bring that question.While riding on the twisties going to the second poker card location I could not take anymore of the attitudes, so to me it was a track day and it was on.If I rolled up on you and showed you my front tire twice and you diddn't move,I took you on the inside.I shoved my front rim up every Harley tailpipe I could and shifted out of 1st and 2nd in 4000 plus rpm's causing some good power wheelies coming out of the turns.I went home as soon as I came accross a freeway on ramp.Ya,maybe not how I schould have delt with it,but fu@k em!

I guess there was alot of yuppie bikers on this run who just think they are bad a$$. I ride with alot of harley guys never seen another buell around my area. The harlay guys always check out my bike and respect it a bit even though its not a harley. Even some of the jap riders like it, a biker is a biker no matter what he rides its in your blood... if they treated you like that then they are not true biker. Especialy on a ride for a good cause, we get alot of bikers on charity runs around my area and all get along. That sucks you had to deal with that, sorry man maybe they all need a good smack upside the head. Bikers stick together no matter what they are riding, next time you ride past one give em a wave if they dont wave back there a wannabe. Screw man do what you love and just Ride..

Bummer man I hate that "better than thou" attitude too! Last weekend I had a guy on a Fatboy do the same thing to me! My wife and I (she on back)rolled up to a light and was the first vehicle in a long line of cars behind me and several in the slow lane to our right then this Fatboy comes up the zipper I look over and give the guy a thumbs up as the light changes then he revs and then takes off like a madman waving his left hand between shifts like "come on get some" I power wheelied up hard and started after him but then my good sense took over (the wife) and I rolled out of it and let him go on. I really wish everyone could just chill and Ride!!!!! I even wave at scooters they are way braver than me on those things!!

Like infamous, I wave at everything on 2 or 3 wheels. (Seen a LOT of Trikes lately) I'm no better than anyone....just glad to be out on a Buell.

That's the one thing I like about riding around post, most of the bikers around here are soldiers too, so even the ones that don't like your ride or whatever still wave back and if they don't I just Flip em' off. If I'm going out of my way to acknowledge your existence in an agreeable manner, the least you can do is acknowledge mine in said manner. We got all kinda riders on post and we all give eachother loads of shit about what we ride, but it's all in good fun. We go on rides now and then, always fun to see 20-50 bikes just rolling off post on the way to hooters in louisville for lunch...

I love those guys are u kidding me!?!?! I take their non-wave as aknowledgement that they were dumbass's and it was I, who picked the right bike the first time. Once I was on the freeway, and there was this chopper in the lane next to me, my lane is going slow as shit, and he left like 5 car lengths infront of him. So I jet into his lane, fully intending to go back to mine as soon as I get passed the old guy in the plaid hat infront of me, and man that douche goes flying(can choppers even do that?) by me and gives me the bird...lol...I just gear down, side up with him, flip up my visor and mouth as clearly as I can "F#*CK YOU"

First of all I did not post this to whine,only to share an experience with the fourm.With that being said,with every style of bike there is on the market to buy,there is a personality makeup of a person that will closely match the two together.Diversity of people is a good thing,keeps things on a real level,and we have no choice but to deal with people every day.I was told buy my father to treat people as you would have them you.I have no problem being a gentlemen,and an even easier time being an asshole,all depends on what the other person has shown to me,simply put.Ride safe,TRY to be the better person(not always easy)and have a Buellafull day.
