Super Snake - Been off-line for a bit. . . Taking care of wife's "final arrangements" and such. On-line for a short time after work 3-4 times a week. The 'building trades' are slow and the 3-3 1/2 day weekends are rough. AND, I'm getting tired of eating my own cooking. I can cook all right but it's NO FUN cooking for 1, the bed is a lot bigger too. Not grumbling. The cards were dealt and I couldn't get a re-shuffle.

I can't explain my disgust towards moped/scooter riders around here without being banned 
I have to drive through the "rough" side of town every time I leave the house to go to work/store/anywhere...and the frickin idiots are everywhere! 99% of them are 13-18 year old gangsters, doubled up on one with their feet dragging the ground. Every little bump sends them wobbling toward the curb, they are oblivious to traffic around them, don't wear helmets, and you know they don't have any type of insurance...
They weave from side to side, and try to race people.
I have had a couple try to race me while I was on my FZ1. I take off like normal and still leave them in the dust! Idiots wave and honk their horns at other bikers (me)...
I have seen one license plate rotated around at least 6 or 7 different scooters/mopeds. Usually a different one every couple days.
This makes me want to get in my truck and go kamikaze on the little freaks whenever I see one!

Today I saw one riding behind a car going through a busy intersection at approx 35/40 mph and he was only about 3 feet behind the car. He wont have this habit long thats for sure. I bet he ends up under something within a week.
