You are the one suggesting people should watch 'Biker Boyz' as a primer on the behavior of people who ride sportbikes and then you expect to be taken seriously?

I was being generous. Biker Boyz went out of its way to make squids look good. The reality is that squids are much more reckless than depicted in the movie. The movie always had them drag racing away from the rest of civilization. The reality is that packs of squids fly down highways leaning in and out of corners at insane speeds with absolutely no regard for anyone else.

Yes, like taking a blackbird racing on a dirt road? Laugh.

What is wrong with taking twisties fast? Jealous because you can't do it without scraping half your bike away?

In all fairness, I've seen plenty of people on four wheels drive at break-neck speeds with little or no regard for anyone else on the road. Shoot, I had a guy in a Lincoln LS play road warrior the other day. I had to brake hard to avoid contact with this guy who cut me off coming into my lane, so I beeped my horn at him. Since I had the temerity of signalling my horn at him, obviously I deserve the bird and to be run off the road. Do I paint all automobile drivers as reckless? No, of course not. Just because someone's wearing leather, a bandana, and a hog doesn't exempt them from stupidity, either. As an aside, I didn't see Biker Boys. The trailer showed them racing street bikes on gravel. LOL It's a rum old world when you meet the nicest people on a Harley and the Honda riders are the hooligans. ;)
