straightouttalocash Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 No, he didn't need to. If he lives long enough to understand he'll eventually slow down. If not, he'll be a pic on rotten.com with his butthole hanging out of the back of a minivan... Without the traffic? Sure, get on it, let your ZX14 flag fly, but in traffic the little old lady in the Cutlass Ciera will surely kill you... My 2 cents. Of course I'm a newb, so who's to say..?

Radio Flyer1647545514 Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Sorry, that was me. I was running late for my haircut. On a real note, I've had sort of the same situation. I was one lane from the fast lane and I was getting ready to pass the person in front of me. I check my mirror, check my blind spot then get ready to get over. Look again and next thing you know I have a Vette, BMW and a GTO fly past me on 670. I don't know why I didn't get over, just checked that one more time or it would have been a bad situation. I've opened my bike up on country roads w/ zero cars around, but on the freeway in traffic, that's just dumb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LS_Sonoma Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 I see this all the time in Chicago and usually with chicks on the back in heavy traffic. Makes me sad to see insurance rates go up for the rest of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
