Alright, who on here is trying to kill motorcyclists

[Tarzanman]

Some asian ricer in a blue 350 (don't know if he's on the board or not) has a lot to answer for.
From http://georgiasportbike.com/forums/showthread.php?t=34832:

Last night my roommate, jordan, was on his way to diggers with two other riders when he was intentionally hit by a 2004/5 Nissan 350 Z, blue, driver asian male. If any of you see a car fitting this description PLEASE get a tag number!!! This guy was apparently pacing jordan shawn and james when jordan pulled ahead of the other two, the Z was on their right and cut into the fast lane, in the process clipping jordan's rear wheel hard enough to break it. Jordan hit the concrete construction barriers and slid about forty or fifty feet. the bike slid an additional 70 or 80 feet. Jordan was wearing gloves, jacket, blue jeans, and an icon helmet. He went to the hospital, no breaks or fractures, by the grace of god, just one hell of a lot of road rash. Anyone who sees this car, with or without an asian driver there will be marks or damage to the front fender. Please get a tag number and call 911, give them the tag number, present location and tell them gwinett police are looking for this guy. Thank you everybody!!

I really hope the bikers find you before the cops do.

F*cked up. This why I won't ride a motorcycle.

I doubt he hit him intentionally, its just that asian cant drive :D . GL on finding that asain. so u bikers are going to go beat up anybody in a blue 350z, I hope yall have on yalls vest

You don't know that. He followed the bikes hit the guy and then drove off. Had the rider died it would be vehicular manslaughter. Are you trying to defend him? Would you have the same piss-poor atitude if it had been a chick in a car that got rammed into and wrecked? Doubtful.

P.S. I dont' own a vest.... but i'll bet $50 that you have a fart pipe on your 0.5 liter honda :taun:

Mr2 turbo with a quiet exhaust, try again my friend. what proof do u have that he hit your friend intentionally or than he hit your friend and left?? Ppl ride bikes ass all the time down here, thats why I think he or she might have just not paid attention at the time and hit your friend. I hope the police catch him, but I am not going to support your cause to go out and beat up any asian in a blue 350z. I respect bikers, I always stay 3-4 car lengths behind a bike. Nobody should run from a accident, but ppl get scaried.

Would you have the same piss-poor atitude if it had been a chick in a car that got rammed into and wrecked? Doubtful.Same thing could be said on your side. You don't know that this was intentional.

For example: A 350Z is pacing some bikes, just playin around like people do. He turns in to get behind the bikes and clips the biker by mistake. Seeing the guy slide down the road, the driver of the 350Z panics and hauls @ss.

Sure, this doesn't make it right and I do hope that this guy gets caught, but bluntly yelling out that it was intentional is pure assumption.

The rider who got hit isn't my friend. And where exactly did I say that anyone should go out and beat up asians in 350's? Obviously, one of the riders in the pack got a good look at the guy. Should you be nervous if you are an asian who drives a blue 350? Probably, since Gwinnett PD is looking for a guy matching your description. Are bikers going to ride out in gangs looking for people to beat up? If you think that, then you watch too many movies.

I don't know if you really respect bikers or not, but you were pretty fast to defend the asshole that caused the accident. Actions speak louder than words

Your pseudo-intellectualism is just that (pseudo means 'fake', btw). Being a 'liberal' describes one's political views. It isn't at all related to playing 'devil's advocate' or second guessing (which is what you were doing).

There is a difference from being liberal (adjective) and being a liberal (noun). The only meaning it has as a noun has its etymological roots in political speech.

Nothing in your previous posts even remotely resembled advice. If you want to help someone, then help the cops find this guy before he runs another person off the road.

Yeah homey well nothing in your previous posts made me want to do anything even resembling helping you.

RACIAL PROFILING FTL

[kittychick]

Its a very lucky thing that your friend/ the bike driver is safe!

But this title is pretty presumptive "Alright, who on here is trying to kill motorcyclists"

*just an fyi: my dad owns a motercycle and he drives very safely

Using such a title and relpying to people's comments the way you have makes everyone get defensive (I'm sure you've notices).
Perhaps it was the biker's fault- did he hit is breaks "break checking" or cut the car off? Its possible, I saw a guy on a bike going on 85 right after the 75/85 split and he was cutting across lanes and all kinds of crazy stuff!! In the dark!

There are always two sides to a story.

*grab pitch fork and hunt down any asian I see in a blue 350z just for u* Watch out u pesky asians.

But I seriously hope your friend makes a 100% recover with no ill effects. I hightly doubt u will find the 350z owner though, but I do hope he gets what he deserves by leaving the scene of a accident

Scroll back up. This was posted on another messageboard and no, I wasn't present.

I posted it here because there's a pretty fair chance that a guy iin a 350 who tries to race bikes on the highway would visit this messageboard... and even if he doesn't, there is a pretty good chance that someone here would know him (whether they realized it was this guy or not).

In short... I am putting the word out because this guy is dangerous... and the road will be safer for everyone if he gets busted...but a few dolts on here apparently think that attempted murder on the road is ok.

[thinkfast®]

we mean muggin too, this pic is somethin serious

p.S- please refrain from using words like "dolt", its not helping your cause, whatever that may be (I hope its not to make friends)

[ATK_Designs]

I find this hard to believe.

No one in even their **dumb** mind would try to hit a motocyclist, not to mention drive a nice 350z. :screwy:

90% of the time, I find bikers are bunch of assh0les who tried to race through and cut through traffic. Something happen, then they lied. Most of the accidents are caused by the bikers themselves. Whoever it was may be was trying to change lanes while the biker tried to cut through traffic. No offense, I do have friends who are bikes and yes, more than half of them admit that they got that adreline rush whenever they on the bike and acting stupid. There are only few exceptions that ride nice and safe and obey the law. I mean, it's simple psychological concept. I'm not saying the 350z Owner is right either; he should've stopped. But I'm pretty sure that the biker was initially at fault.


Btw, Asian ricers don't own a 350z, they own a riced out CRX with Double Deck Alu Wings. So stop racial profiling son. :gay:

[turbosx©]

I'll let my posts speak for themselves. I've been on this board long enough to know that there are *plenty* of people here with more horsepower than brains (or good judgement) who don't have a problem with racing on the street. (Its not like you even try to hide the fact *cough*killsforum*cough*).

In this instance, apparently some of you had your feelings hurt when I pointed out the fact that a few posters were trolling. Cry me a river. Make a valid point and then you'll get proper respect back. Carouse around like an adolescent, well... there's no shortage of that on this board either (nor in this thread). A few of you sound exactly like the stereotypes from television and movies that you emulate. If you can't understand how that is an insult then just ignore anything I say because you wont' understand it either.

If anyone does know who this particular 350z driver was then they should let Gwinnett PD know as at the very least he is responsible for a wrecking a bike and putting someone in the hospital.

Talk all the nonsense you want, but that is what this thread boils down to

Insurance company studies have shown that the 3 top reasons for motorcycle wrecks are:
1) Failure of a car driver to see the rider and hit the rider (Most common method is turning left in front of the driver) - In two-thirds of motorcycle accidents involving another vehicle, the driver of the other vehicle violated the motorcycle's right of way and caused the accident.
2) Failure of the rider to negotiate a curve (usually a single vehicle accident)
3) Failure to stop in time (usually riders fault, can be single or multiple vehicles involved)

It is not cutting through traffic. It is not lying about it (all bikers are liars, right?). The majority of accidents are caused by car drivers.
You are sure the biker was at fault? Were you there?

I ride and I drive. I have had cars long before bikes. I have not had many wrecks in cars - even with racing, track days, etc. I have had 0 accidents on a bike. And I have been riding for years.

Get over your stereotyping. Car drivers can be at fault as easily as bikers can be at fault.

Dude, made it clear, I didn't say that all Bikers are liars. I have many friends who are Bikers. I just spoke from what I've experienced AND what them, the BIKERS actually told me.

In Atlanta, ALL the time. I've seen bikers cutting people through traffics (not included Harleys folks, I'm talking about sport bikers). And they've caused a friend of mine to swirled off the traffic and is now dead. I've also had biker friend who was being reckless and is now dead also.

I don't see this accident. Again, it's just my opinion. Yes, I am stereotype because it's what I see here in ATL. I'm sure you're one of the few good and humble bikers there are. But majority of the rest doesn't convince me.

So this car figured it was some here.. hehe.

[David88vert]

I'm sure you're one of the few good and humble bikers there are. But majority of the rest doesn't convince me.

There are lots of them. The news just doesn't report the everyday rider who never has any accident or problems. I have been riding for years with sportbikers. That's what I ride myself. Not one of the many regulars that I ride with has had an accident where he has died or was at fault for hitting a car. However, several of them have gone down due to cars hitting them (from behind while stopped at a red light), or turning right in front of them. When I ride, I ride as though every single car was aiming to kill me. Because if I don't, one of them will.

I travel a little faster than the flow of traffic every time I ride. It is 5 times easier for a bike to change lanes than a car. I can out-accelerate and out-brake almost every street legal car (there are some highly-modded ones that can beat a bike).

Think about this: If a 400lb bike travelling at 100mph hits you in the rear or side while you are traveling 70mph, how much damage will he do to you? Answer: not much at all

Now the reverse: If you are traveling at 70mph and rear end a bike traveling at 65mph, what happens?
Answer: The rider will go down and you will probably run over him.

If you think that bikers are dangerous on the road, you should consider what a mom on a cell phone turned around yelling at her 2 kids in the back seat is. Bikers are usually focused - since they are vulnerable. Soccer moms are not focused on their driving when they are paying attention to the kids in the back - and they are driving a 6,000lb SUV at 75-80mph down the interstate.

Cliff Notes: Don't worry about the bikes, they won't hit you. Worry about SUVs. Don't assume that the majority of riders are reckless - many are very calculating (at least the ones that survive).

That I agree with you 100% on this. :cheers:

Freaking ridiculous people. Get off the damn phone or at least use a headset. Don't try to hold the fone, talk, putting make ups, eat, and changing lanes at the same time. EVERY DAY, I see those type people almost run over me, if not, others, in busy traffic. :2up:

+1. Very good post. :goodjob:

I've had people literally ride over onto me where I could've hit their fender with my hand ....usually talking on their cell phone. :rolleyes:

People don't respect motorcycles at all on the road. Just like big rigs often times muscle their way over on the interstate. They figure they're bigger than you, so they just come over and MAKE you let them in. Cars do the same thing to motorcycles all the time. That is why most of us ride on full alert all the time when in traffic. I'd rather be riding at 100 mph in FRONT of the traffic than 75 mph right in the middle.

[quickdodge®]

Here's my take on bikers:

They are perfect examples of hypocrites. They run around crying and complaining about cars/trucks not watching out for them on the road and wave the "LOOK TWICE. SAVE A LIFE" slogan everywhere, which is all well and good. But the next thing you see, is they are the ones running over 100 down the highway, darting in and out of traffic, no turn signals, no nothing. As with anything in life, people need to watch out for themselves before needing others to watch out for them. Makes no sense to me.

Here's my take on bikers:

They are perfect examples of hypocrites. They run around crying and complaining about cars/trucks not watching out for them on the road and wave the "LOOK TWICE. SAVE A LIFE" slogan everywhere, which is all well and good. But the next thing you see, is they are the ones running over 100 down the highway, darting in and out of traffic, no turn signals, no nothing. As with anything in life, people need to watch out for themselves before needing others to watch out for them. Makes no sense to me.

Hey, without bikers getting hit, you'd have no ghosts to hunt! :tongue1:

Lolol. True. I should also iterate that I want a bike, so I'm not knocking bikers at all. Just that as much as I am on the road, I see bikers and how they are out there and they blame it all on autos. Later, QD.

Having recently (just over a year ago) started riding a motorcycle I can say that the folks who say "Bikers are hypocrites because they go 100mph" don't or can't really understand the situation.

I'll try to explain, but its hard to understand this until you've putted around in traffic for a while on a bike.

If you are in a car and you get get cut off by a driver for whatever reason (cell phone, inattentive, just a jerk, etc) then you might get a little upset, shrug it off, get pissed... whatever. In most cases the offending driver maybe has risked getting rear-ended or you getting sideswiped.

You guys who drive cars should understand that a *good* *attentive* rider takes getting cut-off as a very real threat to his life. Even a minor fender bender will throw a rider off his bike (our wheels aren't protected by bumpers and break a LOT easier than car wheels)... and that is always bad news... the *best* case scenario in that situation is getting bruised/road rashed and getting your bike/helmet wrecked.

Believe me when I tell you that any rider who doesn't take something run-of-the-mill like getting cut in front of as a major hazard won't stay accident free very long. The old riders are the paranoid riders.

Why do you see bikes going down the highway at 100 mph? Isn't that dangerous? Well, I don't go 100mph (I keep it in the high 70s-to-low-80's depending on traffic)... but yes.... of course it is... but its not nearly as dangerous as going that fast in a car.

First off, a bike will do a lot less damage to people/property/other cars on the road at a speed like that. If I go that fast on a bike... then for the most part I am only increasing the risk to my own well being by lowering the amount of time I have to react . This depends on the situtation, of course.... but generally this is the case.

Second, bikes are a lot more stable at high speeds due to gyroscopic effect. I have to work a LOT harder to turn/drop my bike at highway speed than at side-street speeds. This means that I have to make a conscious effort to get really stupid on the highway if I want to do anything other than ride in a straight line. -This isn't the case with cars. Your crappy mustangs and rice boxes with their stock suspensions aren't designed to handle at high speeds without aftermarket modifications.... whereas my race replica bike actually gets easier to ride at a higher speed.

Last... accident/obstacle avoidance. There *is* such a thing as excessive speed, but staying with the flow of traffic isn't a good idea either. A bike just doesn't intimidate a car like another car does... which is a big part of the reason why bikes get ignored on the road. I'm not saying car drivers do it on purpose... but there is a subconscious part of your brain that tells you "don't pull out now or that Semi hauling two trailers will flatten you", which doesn't necessarily get triggered when there is a bike on the road. Ask any motorcyclist how aggressive the drivers around him are when he's on a bike vs in a car. When i'm on my bike, cars tend to go to one extreme or the other.... some people will wait longer for me to pass before they try to shift lanes... and others will try to squeeze into smaller spaces by me (presumably because I am a smaller target).

The behavior of other cars is not necessarily worse when you're on a motorcycle, but the stakes are definitely much, much higher. The same car that would cause a fender-bender if I were in my SUV would take out my front wheel and send me under the wheels of the car behind me while I am on my bike. How safe would you feel around other vehichles if the driver seat of your car was on the front of your hood?

I am not trying to make excuses for motorcyclists... I am just trying to give some of you non-riders a glimpse into our mindset. Too many of you look at bikes using speed (sometimes justifiably, and sometimes not) to get out of potentially sticky situations and equate it with driving a car. Its not the same thing... and believe when I say that anyone who rides a bike like its a car will likly be hit or in an accident within a year.

I agree, it is a pretty serious matter, but you did post it in the WHORESLOUNGE. This shit is like the sp'ed department at a redneck highschool, everything is a JOKE.

Should have private messaged Random Guy as opposed to calling him out like you did. Then posted a thread asking for help looking for this guy.

:yes: ;)

I think i posted the thread lookin for the guy before i posted about husan ..It was late cant rememeber ..Just look at th etime of my post ..


Halfbaked thought he was being funny and sending me in the direction of the whorelounge ..I had just signed up and had no idea he was just a smart ass kid trying to play a prank on his friend .

If you go to my first post on here and read the thread you will see that halfbaked started the shit and told me to post up about it on the whorelounge section ..If some of the people on here were a bit more mature and less smart ass they would have been treated a bit differently by me as well ..I am usually a pretty nice guy ..http://forums.importatlanta.com/showthread.php?t=80067
