So I am riding down the street and.. - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

So I am riding down the street and it is a bout a 10 mile strip with a median. I get about 6 miles down and make a u turn. I see off in the distance that another bike is coming up behind me about 100 yards off.
I get into it and I am doing about 60-65. I see the bike coming up quick thinking maybe we will ride together and I see he has no intention of slowing down. I move into the right lane (all the way right) so he has plenty off room to pass me. Before I know it he is about 30 feet away and moving real quickin the left lane! He switches into my lane and passes me about 2 inches away from me. I think our foot pegs almost touched. He passed me doing well over 100mph since I was doing about 70 and it looked like I was standing still. I thought this jerk off was gonna kill me to be honest. That kinda chit is not funny. I noticed he only had on a tank top, shorts, and a helmet, I figured if he didnt care about his life he didnt care about mine. Well needless to say if I had a bigger bike and could have cought him I would have kicked his arse!!!

So I learned not to trust a rider just because it looks like he knows what he is doing!!

This is the time one needs a paintball gun mounted on the front of the bike....blast his gearless ass....maybe then he would keep some distance

airsoft gun, shoot boogers at him.

big stick thrown in the front wheel would have taken care of that problem

Pull up next to him on his right side. Reach over with ur left hand and hit his engine kill switch.

I like the paintball idea.....lots of idiots to shoot in Seattle....

Paintballs hurt.

A fellow rider got it a few days back in the highway. Probably some kids having fun shooting at bikers and cars possibly. Police told him that it wasn't the report they got on this...

Shooting with a paintball or airsoft gun is not a wise choice. That could be viewed as an assault. But shutting off his bike, that's hilarious

. Like a smack upside the head. Plus your not attacking him so it's not assault.
