While you might never be caught, but you choose to put yourself over the rest of society. Isn't that the definition of selfishness and narcissism? I am not Mr. Perfect, but I choose to minimize my negative impact to society to the best of my ability.
I believe I had said this rant isn't just about bikers, stupidly loud cars are just as guilty. If you relax and stop getting so defensive, perhaps you can read the entire thread and see where I am coming from. I believe I also apologized for generalizing as I know there are not guilty parties out there. Of course there are people admitting they have the loud a$$ ones and they are proud of it, I rest my case.
I've been to the track to speed, something Harleys can't do. I do have to admit it would be interesting to see how Harleys handle the uphill esses, corkscrews and all the other fun turns around North America.
You can call me all the names you want. I have had 20+ cars, I have heard every good and bad terms tossed at me and the cars. I honestly don't give a crap as I am past the point where I have to use a car to get people to look at me (going back to the loud pipes).

see once again, self righteous. So you breaking the law where you choose isnt a big deal compared to others who choose to break the law where they choose.
So a guy who does nothing but charity work and help others, but drives a harley is a selfish narciccist by your definition. Boy I wish Mother Teresa drove a harley, I woulda called her a selfish narciccist when I met her back in the day.
im not getting defensive actually, if you read my posts im just playing the other side. I dont have a bike or a loud car. in fact, i like quiet cars myself. But i dont go around telling people that just cus its not my cup of tea that what they enjoy shouldnt exist. If your gonna call them out based on "law" then you sure as hell better obey every single law yourself.
and I didnt call you a name, i made a generalization about people who drive blue z's and prius's. Similar to the one you made about people with loud cars/bikes. But we can move past that as you apologized.
Since you dont know me, i dont take things like this seriously. I was watching hockey last night and responded during commercials. /shrugs
in fact, im at work now and their avaya system is down, so im sittin around going hrmm.
oh well, need to go read the other new posts over night!
