I Hate the Way You Ride.

I have to get this off my chest since I had both a fellow Ninja rider and an SUV riding up my tail this afternoon.

If you were riding the Ninja and turned south on 31 you know who you are. The only reason for the helmet was to satisfy state law. No additional PPE, whatsoever. Cutting in and out of traffic, inches from the rear bumper of every vehicle in front of you, no turn signal until you stopped for the light, splitting lanes so that you are riding in the blind spot of each vehicle on either side of you, and lastly you have a headlight out.

I will cut you some slack on the newer model if the low beam means only one headlight is burning until you hit the high beams but it would not surprise me at all for you to have completely ignored the 30 second pre flight I do on my bike before taking off.

Lucky for you I am trying to watch out for riders and other vehicles and spotted your single headlight early on. I was able to stay out of your way to ensure you didn't hit me if you wiped out. Those other jack legs will never see you and then you will get on a moto forum squawking about how no one respects riders and how it isn't your fault since you were the one on the motorcycle.

Nice bike, though.

low beam on newgen is one light. i'm sorry i scared you with my lane splitting. i was just in a hurry because i really had to poop, and i can't stand pooping in public restrooms, i gotta poop at home man. and when it's coming out, i mean... have you heard of the phrase an unstoppable force against an immovable object? some things you just have to let go.

Yep, newgen means one headlight = low beam, two headlights = high beam.

Somewhat Relevant.

In all seriousness though, I understand venting. Venting is sometimes helpful. Hopefully the rider in question learns to be a little more conservative, or was having one of those rare probably idiot moments, otherwise they probably won't be riding very long, unless they're very lucky. I just hope they don't hurt or scar anyone else with their on-road antics.

I am assuming the point of this post is that some people ride their bikes like retards, and for the better good of motorcyclists they shouldn't be so damn stupid, but they are. They are that stupid. You have to let it go as hard as it is. If he had to poo like others have said, he should have planned for that. Always plan the poo poo

Yeah sorry brah, sometimes I just get back to my roots. I was raised on grand theft auto and counterstrike 1.5 and Halo one. You'd recognize my black CRX by my driving too. I'm a passive aggressive driver. I probably had Tool blasting in my headphones, couldn't hear a single car honk at me, and if anyone were to pull over and walk up behind me on a light, I watch my mirrors and chances are I had a piece on me.

In all seriousness, this thread makes me have to visit the head. BRB.
