Worst of all worlds

[Jalopyshoppe]

Call them cliques or subsets, but each genre of motorcycle specialties has good and bad aspects.
Think patch wearing HD guys and loud exhausts. (loud pipes, slow, attention grabbing)
Then there's the stunter/sumo crowd that wheelie and act like clowns.
Then there's the sprotbile squids in shorts and t shirts on sweet gixxers doing 120

So, today I saw a guy on a sweet gixxer, bro riding in shorts, a t shirt, and a leather vest going a legit 100+mph in the far right lanes splitting, despite an open left lane, with NO FUCKING MUFFLER at ALL on his POS bike.

Is this the latest hybrid of motorcycles? Has it come to this? We're now just a hybrid of the worst behaviors of every subset?

*Edit:
He didn't have a loud stereo, neon underglow, and he wasn't running his hazards, so it could have been worse.

Some people do things for themselves and some people do things for a reaction from others.

I don't have feelings. You on the other hand avoided the question showing your feelings...

We hate every motorcycle, sportbiles with no muffler especially. Seriously though loud stereo and neon underglow...get some pictures and video. That shit is hilarious. We thrive on BikerBoyz shitposting and honestly you cannot post too much shitpost for true boyzzz.

I thought the mufflerless crowd was contained to the greater region of Washington DC. Apparently they have migrated to the west coast for the summer... Damnit.

I was surprised to see someone on a cruiser (don't think it was a Harley but didn't get a good look at it) with a hat, but no helmet, riding down a major street in Alameda yesterday

fairly quiet pipe though

some of the HD crowd is now using digital exhaust enhancement. Where a recording of the exhaust is played thru the stereo speakers when they're on the gas, making it incredibly loud...

My neighbor has one of these...:mad

I thought you were pulling our chain and then I Googled. Stupid just keeps getting more stupid. Wow.:wow

I knew playing noises over speakers was a thing on cars, didn't realize it was on bikes too

sure is; my neighbors bike was incredibly loud before, now it's doubly so. The entire neighborhood hates this fool. Wakes everyone up every morning early warming bike f/5 minutes, then off he goes terrorizing the town.

Hear him coming home when he's blocks away...:rolleyes

If truly running no mufflers his valves will burn out soon, keeping this guy off the road. :thumbup

Well, considering this is a forum for crotchety old people to bitch about the youth of today, I figured this was where to do it.

The idea of being an ambassador aside, ridiculous anti social behavior like this guy's is purely awful. Rider or not, being an asshole makes you an asshole. There's no special bro code that excuses shitty behavior just because you operate a two wheeled vehicle.

I will admit to a bias here, and that's the vest/patch. While there are many clubs who wear patches that do good or at least don't make it a habit to be socially repugnant assholes, there are so many fledgling groups that do. Combine that with cries about profiling harassment, and I lose all respect.

... most of us vest/patch types only last in
the sport a season or three ...
wonder if our mufferless friend’s
bike will still be on the road in December ...? :dunno

:thumbup I hear ya, I have a stock pipe on my bike and anyone that uses speakers as exhaust or to enhance exhaust deserves a good bitching.

Here you are as an example of all the good things a patched club can represent. Same goes for OMC. This guy's patch is from a club whose Facebook page is cluttered with promotion for the Sac2Bay ride.

Don't get me wrong, I am all for people having fun on bikes. Just quit being blantant shitbags about it.

1: Use throttle lightly when you have a loud pipes and you're in a neighborhood.

2: Turn that shit off (Music in town)

3: Do wheelies where no one but you and your Instagram buddies have to watch you

4: Don't fucking split with your hazards on. As a matter of fact, don't use your hazards ever.

There's more, but that's the idea, right?
