After 107 years in Milwaukee, Harley could leave

Just make them ride a bicycle... you think Motorcycles lack respect on the road... try being a cyclist. While it is a bit different in CO due to quantity of cyclists, it is still likely that if you ride a lot you will get clipped at least once every 12 months or so.

I had a cop pull me over on my bicycle for riding on the wrong side of the road. Of course the reason I was on the wrong side is some jack ass clipped me as I was making a left turn (obviously I wasn't going fast enough for him) and forced me into on coming traffic. Cop was sitting right there. When he turned on his lights I thought he was going after the guy that hit me. But alas, no... he came after me.

Bottom line... I feel your pain... literally.

I tend to agree.
Those who constantly drive cages, seem to think that they become gods on the road.

I never got pulled for speeding when I rode because I'd obey the laws. On the downside of this I was constantly tailgated by motorists. I had several strategies to deal with this.
1. First, never ride the center of the lane because it has an oil slick. Don't ride the right side because they'll pass you like you're riding a bicycle, and because you're going a lot faster, will cut in fast sometimes pushing you off into the shoulder. So you ride the left side of the lane.
2. When you are behind another car, make sure you have 6 seconds between the car behind you and the one in front. This is the "3 second rule" of following times two, to enforce the rule on Mr. Asshole behind you.
3. Since there is an "open space" in front of you, Asshole will have a hard-on for it. When there is a clear passing space, use your left arm and give him a big, exaggerated wave to pass. He'll accept this as a challenge and pass. He'll then cut in quickly, but you'll anticipate this and pull over to the right side of your lane after his rear bumper passes your front tire.
4. If Asshole tries shit like tapping his brakes, slow down, give him room, flash your high beam just once. If he does it again, follow him home. When he starts doing circles around the block he'll prove to you how much of a pussy he is.

Extra Large Assholes warrant special treatment. Pulling up to him at a stop light and rear ending him at about 5mph usually causes them to piss their pants. Since its your rubber tire it doesn't do any damage to your bike or their car. I've done this several times and only once had a guy enough balls left get out of his car and start to approach. My response then was to put the kick stand down, stand up, take my right glove off and half unzip my jacket, which froze him. The light then turned green, I back-footed the bike away and passed him on the left side, leaving him standing there with wet pants and cars behind me honking.

I like to carry a few ball bearings in my jacket pocket, for those that think it's funny to try and "push" motorcycles by riding the rear tire.
Take one out, use your thumb to flip it (like shooting a marble) over your shoulder.

I never had anyone actually make contact but if they got really close and wouldn't pass with my wave I'd do a "reverse pass", followed by a flash. I never had anyone try and escalate that. Once you get behind them you gain the upper hand, as they can't do anything to hurt you and you can follow them all day long if need be.

GOD you are such a MAN...at least in these homo-erotic fantasies you've posted for everyone to read...

You really expect everyone to buy into this horseshit after all the other lies you've told on these boards?

On the other hand, you should maybe try your hand at writing...you've shown some aptitude for sweaty, overblown fantasy that I'm sure bikers and lonely housewives everywhere will love...ROTFLMAO!

I suppose slinging that over your shoulder back towards them would be intimidating, but I am right handed and thus the loss of contact on the throttle would be a problem. Plus, this was back in Massachusetts, where arms were difficult if not illegal to obtain and carry.

Maybe one of these would help you get around, since it's obvious you aren't that mobile.

Left handed holsters are the way to go.
