JUICEDSS:
At 4:30 on Church Street heading to the thruway and someone pulls in front of me from the right lane without looking because they didn’t have the brains to see that their lane had cars parked ahead of them gives me the right to give a little blip of the throttle. Now keep in mind, I am the same guy that turns his bike off at night and glides the last house and right up to my garage at night. I am also the same guy that turns his bike off when going down the side of the Peace Bridge into Canada by rolling when their is a ton of traffic. Also keep in mind that everytime arrived home at my parents house, I would shut the car down at the end of the driveway by the street, walk up and open the garage and start it and get it in the garage and off as soon as possible. I am also one of the few that doesn’t sit at a light and rev the throttle because it sounds cool. I know how annoying loud exhaust is. I rarely go 5 over the speed limit as well.
Loud exhaust can be annoying, I do understand that and I do my part to make others more comfortable when next to them. Funny though, no one ever bitched about the loudmoth that was on my Camaro. Oh thats’s right, it’s ok because it’s a car!
Someday maybe I will be a perfect motorcyclist like yourself and leave enough room for the assholes that can’t look before they pull out.
And you know what, my front and rear wheel has never been off the ground while I am riding. How many can say that ?
Fair enough. Props to you for using some discretion. It’s too bad Harleys don’t come with horns, then you could use your horn instead of blipping your throttle for safety.
Whatever. Loud pipes save lives is a BS excuse. You have loud pipes on your bike because you want to. tee up to you for using discrection and not being the guy who goes WOT to show off.
