The ups and downs of year round commuting
 
The ups: The weather has improved, corners become more fun, sunglasses come out, the feeling of damp clothing is going.

The downs: thousands of mopeds being ridden by brainless twerps who think a 50cc engine being revved will magically move cars out of the way, and the self same hair dryers attacking you from bizarre angles.

It was my rant after a twerp got up my backside revving his hair dryer at me for a gap that just didn't exist.
I had enough when he got close to my exhaust and just gave him a mouth full and some rev limiter when he felt the need to have the last word.

Nice "LOUD" pipe I hope?? 😛
Coming past local College the other day......3rd gear/2000 revs/28-30mph, big gang of kids at side of road watching me approach.........got a earful of 1000 twin/PipeWerx-no baffle @8000+ with couple of big handfuls with clutch dipped.....nearly wet them selfs 😝

I get the same souped up "Slowped" trying to beat me off the lights on the commute to work.
As I'm usually on the 750, you can guess how that goes, as he's trying to talk to me at the lights it usually goes like this..

him...."mumble"

me *Brraaaap* "Sorry i can't hear you over" *Braaap* "the sound of how awesome my bike is"

He's since given up.
