Default Messing with biker...

Today early morning I got onto a main road to get to work as I do every morning, but as im approach a stop light I start hiting the brakes and I hear a loud grinding, rough sound. I felt my cars transmission or engine is about to die but it wasn't my transmission or engine. On the next lane a biker with a very loud motorcyle pulls up next to me and as he's stoped he revs his bikes engine and now I know I got a challenge. Knowing their is cops on this road every now and then I decide to let him go fist to see if he want to race or not. As soon as the light turned green he hit it hard and so did I. We were at forty miles per hour in 1 or 2 seconds and looking at my speed I decided just to stay neck to neck with him and play with him. He keep trying to race past me but could not. Everytime he speed up I was right next to him, he must of thought his motorcyle wasn't advancing. At the next red light I get to the light first and I roll down my window and he yells "That fu**ing car kicks a**" and I complemented him aswell. I can honestly tell you I could have embarresed him badly but decided not too, he knew if I wanted to I would have left him standing still.

most cruisers aren't hard to beat, not only are they slow, but the people who have them usually don't know how to ride all that well (fast). good kill! next time, go ahead and embarress him.

My dad has an '03 Harley Road King thats been punched by Star Racing. Has a wicked idle to it. It moves too. It did almost 115mph in the quarter with a 250ish pound rider.

Exactly, say what he wants but I dont believe it for one minute. Sure there are bikes that a stock ls1 (yes a lid and cutout is still stock IMO) can beat, but not anything you can toy with to that degree and still have enough to claim you'd leave him standing still.

I totally embarassed a harley on the highway in front of his "biker gang" when I was near stock.

They are slow POSes.

Why are some calling BS on this? There are lots of bikes out there that are loud, with chrome, and are slow. It sounds like a fun race. No one really knows what type of bike it was. It could have been a Nighthawk with no exhaust. Nighthawk=slow. I know, I own one .

Yes harley bikes are very slow for the most part (i know a couple that could rock my 600). however i still dont think it was quite to the extreme of toying with it and knowing you could leave it standing. that kind of a difference would equate to 1.5 - 2 second differences in the 1/4. I dont know many bikes that eek out 15s unless they have shyte riders.
