This is funny to me on a couple of levels. First let me acknowledge that people who have confused their check book or worse their credit score with riding skill and project their limits on to me irk the fecal matter right out of me. I don't really care what they are riding but as I have noted before the vast majority here in New England seem to be astride the ubiquitous over chromed HD. I should also acknowledge the more than a few riders on these machines who have decent road manners as they have “made a hole” for me on more than one occasions and in general are fun to take a leisurely ride with.
I have been on the other side of this when riding a Busa. On a recent trip back from New York with my reflexes dulled by fatigue I found myself being crowded by a group of Cruiser riders even though I had rolled to the right I could hear the loud pipe over revving behind me . After about 3 miles of this crap I got to wide spot in the road and stopped and let them go by and while I did not give the single digit wave it did occur to me that perhaps I could better place their pipe to help inflate the airbags that had their fee on the controls
