Hmmmm, i've made a couple of wing mirrors explode in my time and i can honestly say this. Its not big and its not clever.







but some diks understand nothing else and it serves it purpose from time to time.

Be very wary of doing this. If you are in a position to smash the wing mirror you are also in a position to be swerved into!!

Also if caught by our friends in blue I'm guessing you could be looking at criminal damage as well as riding without due care and attention/dangerous riding!

Never kicked in a wing mirror - don't see the point when you can beep your horn & gesticulate angrily at him.

Surely a car without a wing mirror means that they definitely won't be ablt to M-S-M when changing lanes & therefore be MORE liable to hit a bike?

I hate coming across cars with no mirrors! I dont uderstand how people dont notice their missing mirrors...unless, of course, they never use them to observe they are mising...

Still, fuel exhaust is in the post I think. I'll soon blast them out of the way with some NOISE

I worked out its not noise, since noise is unwanted sound

it is, instead, loud sound

Loud sound works lovely, if they dont move or are ignorant, some full revs just as you pass their window gives me some satifaction knowing they are probably screwing up their faces. Unbaffled dual port no baffles mmmmmm.

I don't have a loud can, I'm really not sure it's as important as people make out, if you're relying on them hearing your engine, and getting annoyed if they don't move even if they've heard you, then I guess you do this filtering thing diferently to me.

But then, I'm slow...
