Anyone ever have "tuners" try to race you on your bike?

I wasnt really pushin it that much and I knew could be faster.

Aannnndddd.....So what's that mean...He got'cha??? ;)

I notice there's no response to this one still :D

It's funny........When I was headin' outta town Sunday for the Pony, this kid in a red Civic was next to me at a stop sign. Didn't pay much attention to him......only thing "tuner" about it was the can. Anyways, I pull away normal from the light, and so does the kid, but then he starts gassin' it & I notice he's pullin' away pretty quick. So having just read this thread, I nail it & pull up next to him, then let off the throttle & look over at him. He's laughin' his ass off, thumbin' at something in the back seat. I give him a "C'mon....Go ahead" wave, & he's starts laughin' even harder & shaking his head, still thumbin' at whatever's in the back seat. At this point I wave "Bye-Bye" to him again, crack the throttle & take off :rolleyes::)

Did he have a child in the back or something Fonzie?

If so, he's 2x an idiot. :nono:

There was someone else in there, but I couldn't tell age. Even so, if he's gonna use them as his excuse, why go hittin' the gas after we're away from the stop? Why start somethin' you can't finish?!? ;)

This one time I was rolling up 75 in kentucky after a day of riding and this guy on a ZX 14 pulls up next to me and starts honking his horn. When I looked over at him, he started dropping gears to drag race me. So I followed suit and dropped my bike down to 2nd and laid into the throttle..... Wait, wasn't that you nick? I'm ready for round two with a new air filter and some engine work coming soon.

Anyhow, that was probably the only time I'll leave your bike behind. GET THOSE MODS!

With you being -1/+2 gearing, fully piped, and weigh sooo much less it was a win for you I agree. Me weighing much more and being totally stock didn't help at all. With my normal mods I need to get done I should be 25hp more. Plus I am running on the elliptical a lot lately trying to drop weight. We shouldv'e done a roll from 160mph and see who would win that day..:lol::p

Sucks you're moving in July down to TX, because I won't have anything done by then bro.:(

160! ha, it's hard to race when you start just below redline. Although, I will be back sometime to ride again.
