Cool, another opportunity for yuppie posers to pretend that they are bad a$$ just because they plopped down a check for a motorcycle.

I look at it like this:
I do not and never have tried to cause a motorcycle to crash. In fact I move over and give them as much room as possible to get by, unless they are inconsiderate low-life posers with very loud pipes on their motorcycles. I absolutely hate sitting in traffic minding my own business and having some POS on two wheels go right by my window and blast my ears with loud pipes.
In those cases all bets are off. If these morons are more concerned with they bad boy poser image than with my personal right to reasonable peace and quiet, F-em. I don't try to make them crash but I will not allow them to share my lane. They can sit back and wait like the rest of us or they can split someone else's lane.

I discussed this with my older brother recently, he has drag pipes on his harley (he sells insurance ooooo big bad biker )
He said something about how I might get my door kicked in. I responded that I have insurance and asked him which would hurt more, my door getting kicked or some clown going down and getting accidentally run over because he tried to kick my car. If someone kicked my car I might get startled and react in a way that could possibly casue my truck to suddely swerve.

It is my lane. Motorcycle riders can split my lane if I allow it which I will always do, unless they make too much noise.
I say don't be obnoxious, don't threaten to kick my car (or anything else) and we will get along just fine.

If you are cool and don't infringe on my rights, I will go out of my way to make things as easy and safe for you.

If you are one of those idiot *********s who don't care about anyone else, I will show you the same courtesy you have shown me.
