First ride of the year and a angry old biker yelling "it aint a motorcycle" as he rides up beside my wife and I then she got out the cell phone. He was purposely looking for something so as he slowed wayyy down in a 45 zone egging me to pass him I drove passed him and laughed really loud, then each intersection we had an adult conversation. LMAO
Yea dude its a CAN AM SPYDER maybe if you rode one you'd be happy!
I'm the wrong person to find out if your desperate for attention Ill gladly give some, so finally he said he knows the State Police and he kept yelling out my license plate number and he was going to send them to my house.
For what having a MC linc plate on a "Not a motorcycle"?
He's just pissed that he needs a Spyder but can't afford one.

I find it best for my well being to simply avoid people like that - tailgaters, meanies, the lot of them. Even if I have to turn off the route I had been taking, I am better for it. And you know what else? That more than likely pissed THEM off.
Ours is a red, black and chrome 2017 F3 Limited. Bought new in 2/2019. The avatar is my first bike back in 1952, a Simplex Servi-Cycle. Photo taken at the Barber Museum.
I wonder what it is about them that's so scary, or why he's so threatened by Spyders??
Back a few years ago when Spyders were the new kids on the block down this way, there were a few riders like that to be found, but these days, there's waaaayyy more interest about them from both young and old riders.
Pretty much every time I go ryding in the Hills around here and eventually stop for a coffee or lunch, just about every one of the bikes I've passed getting there will eventually pull up (some take longer than others! ) and the riders start asking about my Spyder. And there's never a word of anything but wonder &/or envy! There was a time they'd ask about Max the Miniature Maltese ryding in the tank bag first, but since he's passed, these days it's straight into asking about what's the powerplant under the tupperware and how the bleedin'eck does it corner at speeds that it's does as if it's on rails regardless of the surface or how tight the corners are!

When told "that ain't a motorcycle," I reply, "You're right - it's actually a snowmobile and I ordered the optional tires so I can ride it year round." Shuts 'em up every time!

I tried BUT he was watching us in his mirror shaking his head and started slowing down were allllll the traffic he passed had to pass him now so he wanted attention. I didn't swear and no middle finger as he was more than happy to share with us. So I made fun of his Honda Shadow not being a HD LOL

Or you could tell him your motorcycle aint a racoon, but it has 2 tails and you're sitting on the rest of it!
Well,
First, I think he was jealous that you had your girl on the back and he had nothing to go home to.
Second, Imagine his surprise if you waited till you got to a light, got off your stable 3 wheels and pushed him over... I have doubts he could lift that thing back upright on his own. (!! I am not advocating this, but it would be damn funny!! )
LOL.. Those types of people make me laugh.. Still not sure what the hell his problem was looking at your videos.. I send the video to the State Police and let them go to his house for endangerment and harassment.
Is that one of those HDs he's riding just looking for a verbal confrontation? Some people can be piss ants and disgustingly rude, they think it gives them power, but it's just opposite, shows ignorance.
You should have asked if that was a cheap Japanese Harley he was riding.
I did tell him "that's not a harley". LOL Not like I would ride up besides someone and yell at the about that either.
Its a Honda Shadow he was riding........
He's just pissed that he needs a Spyder but can't afford one.
No, he's pi$$ed he wants a Harley and is riding a Japanese Honda.
No helmet, no license for flying the bird. He may want to let the raccoon out of the tail bag too.
Jerks like that don't get one second of my time.
Dang, y'all still beating up on that poor guy! He been wanting a bike ever since Easy Rider was in the theater and his wife would never let him have one until now. It ain't his fault if all he could get with his stimulus check was a used Honda.
If you look very closely at the text of the original Declaration of Independence with a powerful magnifying glass, right after, "pursuit of Happiness," in very small, barely legible print appears, "and to be an a*****e."

otherwise be a vulgar brawl.
