Lmao that was an awesome read. "Other Drivers Hate You" was funny as hell and very true lol. Every time I go on the road pretty much everything in #3 is going to happen.

Lol agreed. I have only been riding a short while now but it seems like everyone wants to tail gate me no matter what and no matter how fast I am going. Pisses me off.

Didn't really care for the article.
My take: 1 - Owning a motorcycle is not a way to save money.There are always things to buy. Maintenance, insurance, gear, repairs, mods, more bikes, more gear, more mods...it never ends 2 - You WILL smash your junk on the tank. Just get it out of the way early, so you know how to handle it. 3 - Non-riders will never understand. Do you have a death wish? 4 - You spend more time at gas stations, than you ever thought imaginable. Especially considering it is a "fuel efficient" vehicle.
