Saw this thread on another forum and thought it would be cool to start here.

1. Bikers that don't wave back when you wave
2. Little kids that expect you to do a 12 o clock wheelie everytime they see a sportbike and give you the finger when you don't
3. Bugs that splatter over your freshly clean visor
4. Riders/cagers that think you are racing them just because you increase your speed gradually
5. Stupid comments like "you're going to die on that thing"
6. Cagers cutting you off or drifting in your lane w/o signaling
7. The wind from trucks on the highway
8. People highbeaming me for having my highbeams on so THEY can see me
9. Cars making left turns that never happen to see bikers
10. Getting stuck behind slow cagers on your favorite road.

+1 on the other riders not waving back. its usually only with hogs though. instead of doing the 2 finger salute, they get it initially and it quickly turns to one. the one up just so happens to be the middle:finger

hitting your kill switch on accident LOL If you haven't done it yet...give it time

1. Cigarette flickers...no your cigarette hasn't hit me YET.
2. Road work with no warning what so ever.

3. Guys asking if they can ride with me...from their car.
4. Guys saying "let me show you how to ride that thing" :shakehead
5. "How big is that?"

I've done it, and I always feel sooooo dumb when it happens.

 

[motomummy]

next time tell them "so if you're so good where is your bike?"

 

[ronaldo9]

Forgot about stalling on steep inclines. LoL

 

[motomummy]

how can you stall on an incline? Shift down LOL I made it up Bear tooth highway with a carbed r1...wasn't easy but shifting down and all your problems are solved. Altitutde and incline were messing things so up so bad I had gas dripping out the exhaust at a quick rate.

 

[ronaldo9]

Sorry what I meant was let's say your at a stoplight or stop sign on a steep hill. I've stalled alone and with a passenger and it's quite embarrassing.

Rain is probably the thing I hate most... and 16yr old drivers.

Well this isn't really while riding but you set up a group ride and peeps show up 20 minutes late and then want to get coffee before we get going.
Traffic lights that won't change
Long straight roads
Other sport bikes feeling the need to pass you at 120mph while Commuting in traffic
