Challenging anti-social behaviour

[Vegan1]

There's a massive difference in perceived noise between riding a big capacity bike with slightly modded pipes at low revs and a 'ped with baffles removed at high revs.

When would you ever ride a big bike at low revs? Sorry but you are talking rubbish, many miles spent commuting in London with other motorbikes and big bikes are louder than a moped which has been modified.

In the future it maybe worth while thinking about of all the people you may have annoyed before you start acting pious.

Big bike at low revs in an urban environment that isn't particularly busy. London may well be different. I think we'll have to agree to disagree.

I was walking home at about 10pm a few nights ago when a yoof on a *very* noisy moped drove past me. I heard him from a few hundred yards away and mouthed, very obviously, "noisy farker", at him as he passed me.

He gave me the finger and proceeded to wheelie down the road, which is probably what I've had done when I was 16

In the very unlikely event that he'd stopped I'd have tried to explain that he was disturbing loads of people and was being very selfish. On the other hand he may have pulled a knife and stabbed me.

Right / Wrong / Foolish / Worth a try?

Unfortunately, violence seems to be a common reaction if you challenge anti-social behaviour in Notts - this happened last Saturday when someone objected to a shaven-headed middle-aged thug using foul language in front of his kids.

Given your lecturing views on other subjects, I don't think you can go round calling other people pious

Those of us with motorbike will be meeting up down Vegan1s street for a Wheelie-A-Thon, sponsored by Yoshimura.

I most rode my big bike on low revs, compared with many 4 cylinder bikes the boxer twin is quite happy low down.

Thug
I politely pulled a young man up at work this week (busy public office) for his general torrent of swearyness.
Just asked him to mind his language.
His response was "shut the f**k up"

I really wanted a fizzy but couldn't afford one, had a Puch instead (as below), it was unrestricted and good for 50mph downhill. Friend who lives over the road has still got his fizzy and it's immaculate too!

Long before the advent of fizzies I remember the must have bike for the owner of brothel creepers and drainpipe trousers was the BSA bantam.

Take a tip from an old geezer.Ignore him and he will find another street to annoy .Don't rise to his bait.He will get fed up of no reaction.
