What he didn't know is I was riding out with a police grade-1 examiner, on his lunch hour and so had his warrant badge, the works. The trucker was forced to pull his truck from lane 2 to the hard shoulder and await the arrival of the cavalry in the 4x4 patrol wagon
Gave me time to lose the shakes  unfortunately I never did find the lid-vent to put it back on

U always were a cock Storey. Not the truth? Why will the police be going after them then? Why the witness? etc.
Yeah, i've taken a few wing mirrors off before. People stopping you getting past on purpose, swerving into you, cutting you up then blaming you for it. Holy deseverd. You should speak to vibrio. Two muppets who think they know all.
Hard man act lmfao, no act, maybe this is why u've never said anything to my face before. Im not no big mouth poofy nerd who can sit and slag people off behined a PC. I'll say exactly what i think to anyones face, especially yours.
Now toodle off back to nova land little boy.

I have a Gilera VXR 200cc 
0-60 is 8 seconds rougly. However, the other month i got ripped apart by a 125cc bored out to a 180cc, zorst, filter, some other bits, i dunno. It looked a wreck, being rubbed down to be repsrayed etc, but boy it flew!!!!!
Italiajet 180cc is pretty quick though. Bough the same as mine up to 40mph then mine slowly pulls away.

Yeah, its a 4 stroke, and it doesn't seem to pickup as well as the 2 stokes, but its better for long distances. Do 26 miles each day, 14 of which are at 80mph (cruises along nicly).
Its my work bike so i dont wanna do anything to it. I know they are tunable, and i'd love to have a crack at tuning it But nope, staying standard and reliable (till some cunt knocks u off!).
I still ahve your address, must get my arse in gear and sort it for you!!!!

Dunno why, the truck driver had done nothing wrong.
Bikers cuttin thru traffic do so at their own risk

cutting thru traffic is illegal, i.e. along the side of a car then sharply across the nose at 90 degrees in order to reach the next lane's gap - they must cross lanes normally and face the flow of traffic.
filtering is unlawful but unprosecutable and a test-fail if you face a queue of traffic and don't go past or through when safe (undue hesitance).
HOWEVER, to hinder a filtering biker is unlawful and is prosecutable by means of dangerous driving. Opening one's door intentionally to cause harm to another road user can be interpreted as attempted murder.
He got off lightly with Dangerous Driving, 9 points £1000 + court costs and a community service order for 12 hours.
Did you know that if a bike is filtering and deemed to be doing so safely and another road user moves over intentionally to make the gap already occupied tight or impassible that there is no consequence in law if the offending driver's vehicle is damaged by accident. So if you get close enough that the rider may lose his balance either due to physical effect or fear or an accident and you subsequently get dinged or damaged as a hand or arm flies out to counter-balance, it's your tough luck. Few bikers will do damage to your car intentionally, and those who claim they will often don't. It can happen by accident though, and it'd be very hard to prove that an arm stuck out to collect a wing-mirror was intentional given the circumstances.
I'm not defending damaging other peoples vehicles but I can tell you if you block me while filtering and it's either your car or my bike, then I'm looking after number one. Indicators, doors, wings, mirrors and lights are the most likely victims of accidental contact while I maintain my balance - and there's nothing you can do in law without bringing charges upon yourself.
One of the few occasions the law looks after the interests of the more vulnerable road user.
