Just as an overview, I am generally a pretty good defensive driver. I have driven all types of vehicles including semis. I obey traffic laws, I personally think that the 75mph speed limit is plenty here in OK. on the toll roads. But here it is. There is this guy who I sometimes work with that just bought a brand new 883 Harley Roadster. I believe it is his first bike. This guy is good ole OK boy who is somewhat full of crap an likes to brag. I try to be nice and even told him where to get some reasonably priced saddle bags and leathers, he is buying in to the whole Harley philosphy, whatever that is. He came to my building for a meeting in his new leather vest and told me his bike was here and I could look at it. Jee...like I feel so priveledged to look at another Harley . Anyway he says in so many words that he thinks his bike is faster than mine. I told him any place anytime. Then he gets a little doubtful and says you really think you could beat me, how many CC's is your bike. I said just 790. He said why do you think you can beat me? I told him I'm raced a couple of bigger Harley's and I just know how many hp I have and how many you have. I really would like to put him in his place and it is soooo tempting, but should I just continue to taunt him or meet him on a rural road and put him in his place. I already told him he was riding the girls Harley. He's had it it maybe two weeks and is already talking about buying a bigger one. Maybe I should be the bigger person and just smile at him. That would definetly be the more sensible thing to do. Oh... but how I would love to see the look on his face after I tromp him.
