I was wearing all my gear, but still, 130 was sketch.

The whole reason I was going 130, a mustang thought he was faster than me.

^^ Luckiest guy alive.
I have been riding for 15+ years. Tank slap = uncontrollable. You have no idea how lucky you are to NOT have been thrown from the bike. Steering dampers are your friend .....Glad you lived through it, but you are dumb! 130mph in traffic, and on an unstable condition road/hwy. Not smart. I hope we don't read about you in the news anytime. Keep in mind the families and innocent commuters you are endangering. Not only could you end your life but the life of others. Keep it safe so you can ride again!!!

bikers think they own the road.... On sat we were going to a race track, driving normal speed when we passed 3 bikers they got all mad (i think) and wanted to race us , me in my evo + 2 friends in my car, on race gas untuned. We did a short pull, if i woulnt slow down, either he would crush into our car or hit the truck... I decided to slow down and let him pass the truck and cut the BS and just let it go...not safe, and it is stupid.

I used to own a bike, and let me tell you ive seen alot of crazy ****.

It is only until a life threating experience does one realize how valuable life really is. I was hit by a drunk driver on Memorial Day in 1999 on my '97 CBR 600F3. I was extremely LUCKY. I was in control, doing the speed limit and in my lane with 13 other riders. This could have easily taken my life. And I was obeying all aspects and not being careless. Seriously, don;t be an idiot and lessen the chances by being foolish or a showoff. No bragging rights when your dead.
