Bikers (and I used to be one - CBR600, ZZR1100) are not exempt or above any speeding restrictions. Yes bikes do go fast, yes bikes do accelerate very fast, but also, bikes stop very fast too.
If given the option of having a car or bike coming at me at 60mph I would take the bike any day.
All this aside, there is NO excuse for speeding.

How come motorcyclists are exempt from obeying the speed limits on roads ? one of these ****s was recently clocked going through the village where I live at 105....the limit in our village is 30....what an utter to55er as in my opinion most motorcyclists are.

is this an appropiate solution to your motorcycling friend?

in my humble opinion, i'd say that more than 50% of motorcyclists seem to have less respect for the law (speed limit, and lane positioning only) than your average car driver. If these guys want to risk it on the motorway.... then they will lose... but don't do it in villages, where kids are crossing roads !!

That isn't surprising, you feel powerful in a car but on a bike that feeling is multiplied many times.

I have come close to killing myself a couple of times before when I used to ride bikes.

Recently I have experienced that bike riders seem to be going faster and faster...maybe it's just that time of year

no, does he wear a pink and mauve babygrow, then

That would clash dreadfully with the red of a Ducati, have you no idea?

I also agree there are some real t*****s around on fast bikes, who enjoy slaloming them through fast traffic. They are usually very LOUD and prominent in colourful Power Ranger babygrows suits so cause a lot of ill-feeling as we see here.

You've met our Shytalks then John?

Teehee

WDIK... i feel you're out to "get" me tonight.... "sorry sport negative"? what the hell does that mean?


and as for calling a scooter riding kid a biker..... i don't think the word "biker" appears in my post... go pick on someone with a similar IQ to you...
