You obviously don't know how to ride even your grandmothers moped, if these close calls happen to you everyday then you don't know how to ride ****.
Now get your kissing cousin to make another sarcastic remark. As for my bike not stopping your full of BS it stopped faster then any crap sport bike.
O.P. glad you are alive and able to share your story. As I'm sure you all are aware - increasingly, we as riders must take the situation into our own hands and take evasive maneuvers to save our lives! I've lost count of just how many times I've had to skid, swerve or "crack it" to avoid becoming road pizza. I can't seem to understand why this forum has become such a pissing match of opinions - after all, aren't we all brothers and sisters of the same fellowship, regardless of what bikes we choose to ride? Ride safe everyone!

ride and enjoy what bike you choose.
That explaination would of got me killed, if I had waisted "one" second to rev or more stupid to blow the" horn" I would of T boned, my post said was a panic stop not
a sunday school scenic tourist stop... there was only a split second left before impact... sorry if miss understood but seemed sarcastic all the same.
I rode a sportster once..I didn't enjoy it.
To add to this thread -- Out at Brampton Powersports, leave the dealership and sitting a red (2 lane each way) and after sitting about 30-45 seconds a car blows the red right next to me at around 100km/h...guess he had important **** to get to. (and why is a cop never around when you actually need them)

I don't know whether you're serious or joking, whether you like to banter or get your shorts into a twist. You go onto motorcycle forum claiming the Sportster an excellent bike for curvy mountain roads. Measured against what? Why bait people? If you're so pleased that you don't grind into every guardrail at every corner I'll be happy to take your comments in that context. Enjoy.
You sir, get a solid hand shake.
He's serious, more so then the "Joker".
Elwood: You've clearly never driven in the city of Toronto or surrounding area. This does indeed happen on a daily basis. Finger salute could get you killed one day. Keep Calm & Drive On.
Bonus his female passenger was freaking out on him so hopefully he got an earful from her for being an idiot.
