actually... I don't know that it's illegal to strap a shotgun to your helemt... it's not concealed... so not like you have to have a special permit. kinda like a gun rack

You could put a yellow flashing light on top of your helmet too ebbs, but thats not going to stop us from pointing and laughing


Hell, even that probably wont stop a mini van mom/pop from looking right through you either!

Back in my sport riding days, I wouldn't get out of the lane when they moved over, I'd just ride the line right next to them until they looked up and realized I was there.
Some of the reactions were pretty funny.
Of course, the oblivious fucks were probably saying "Why did that damn punk ride up next to me like that?! Those motorcycles are just too dangerous!"

I've done that a few times but in in dallas its dangerous because they don't change lanes like they should.. its like they all learned how to change lanes by watching Road & Track do slalom testing.. they swerve over fuckin fast... I've kicked a few cars and been flipped off and chewed out for it every time cus ofcourse it must have been me in the wrong since i'm on a sport bike and obviously always going atleast 100pmh

Putting a giant, purple flashing dildo on the forehead of your helmet would probably stop a few soccer mom's from pulling out in front of you too. But in both cases I'd rather just be more observant and not look like a douchebag.

At least the dude rides his Ducati. I know people who have 1098s and 848s and they're dying to be riden. One dude put all this badass shit on his 1098S, to include carbon fiber wheels, and that mother will never see the track. It's sad.
