And, you have to admit, it is more likely for the "crotch rockets" to cause more problems then the Harley riders because the majority of them are teens and twenty somethings that have a "me" complex. Harley's are loud, you get heard before seen, unlike "crotch rockets" that zip up on cagers. Now, with all that said, I do believe it is the few that give the majority a bad rap. And before you start flaming me, if you choose to do so, remember......this is just MY opinion.

I agree with you. Both sides have those that ruin it for the rest of us. When I rode with a sport bike group, we had strict rules of conduct and a mandatory full gear rule. The wheelie popping dangerous assclowns were not tolerated. My issue with Harleys in the wild, so to speak, is the utter lack of courtesy to other riders. My own motto was never ruin another guys ride. If someone wants to go faster, move over. Too many times we came across the typical land pirates that seemed obsessed with blocking the road. Even when riding solo, I have had Hardley's block instead of just moving over. Just let people ride they way they want.
