Stupid scooter riders

Post by StormingHonda »

Is it just me or are most of these scooter riders some of the biggest morons on 2 wheels, was out of my Fireblade came off the A13 and saw this scooter rider screaming his scooter on the roundabout trying to overtake me, so I thought I would have a mess about with the fella, I let him keep up and then sped off, slowed down to let him catch up then sped up, slowed down as we came up to a set of lights and what does the moron do?, undertakes me where I cant see him just as I'm about to open the throttle and filter down the centre, seriously felt like kicking the prick off his scooter, couldnt care less about being overtaken, just didnt fancy sitting in the freezing cold after an RTA.

So many times I see these young lads riding these scooters like they think they are immortal.

I've seen this sorta thing too, it's fun playing games until this happens.

I was following one down the centre of traffic on a dual-carriageway when a car pulled out to stop us filtering (he didn't change lane after the traffic started moving). I called it quits and moved in behind him, this scooter started going round people with his handle bar practically scratching the central barrier/separator thing. No one saw him and he almost got himself killed when traffic did start moving again

It was always the same chaps, cut em some slack. The era of the sports moped brought the same behaviour, you will always get youthful exuberance and a rush of testosterone from them.
It's your fault really Jay, for not using your immense power to crush the little weasel into submission at the first opportunity. You gave him hope that he could get all the girls knickers dropping by telling them he kept up with, and overtook, a blade!!! :lol:

The majority of scooter riders are morons, the exception being those with a full bike license and a lot older (where's B&H :lol: ) I was a moron once on my 125 non twist and go. :biggrin

You do not have to say anything. But it may harm your defence if you do not mention when posting something which you later rely on in quote. Anything you do say may be ripped to sh*t.

Yeah he owned me, my blade just couldnt do him :lol:

What actually sh1t me up was he undertook me just as I was about filter a car, luckily I saw him at last min and didnt open the throttle, he would have been knocked off and probably me too.
