"Ped Bois"

[FragReaper]

Hi,
Thought I'd just start a thread on what actually constitutes a "ped boi" in people's opinions. What is a ped boi as opposed to simply an aspiring 16 year old biker? Is being a "ped boi" a state of mind rather than what you ride? if so, surely you could get 125cc ped bois riding on CBT Do proper licenses automatically alleviate ped boi status?
Opinions people !

A ped boi is identified by his actions and his wardrobe.

If they're in trackies and trainers with their feet on the rear pegs and chin on the handlebars, good chance they're a ped boi.

If they come up beside a bike at the lights and actually seriously think they're going to beat you in a race, good chance they're a ped boi.

If they have no consideration for anything else on the road, they're a ped boi.

Check yourselves against the above categories. If none apply, you're not a ped boi.

TS50 has gears. A ped does not.

Ped bois generally have automatics... (although this is not always the case)

They also always try to tell you that their bike will beat aything and will do 150mph.

For example, if a certain mito owner were to come on here and claim that it did 120mph then he would be considered a ped boi.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

peds, i.e moped do not have do have gears..
as mopeds were originally motrbikes with pedals, i.e fsie's

plus a ped boi would right a speedfight, whats with that anyway, yes they challenge speed, as they have none of it, but why decal it on the ped!? odd in my oppinion.

If you get a scooter, get a real one, not some sport bike rip off.

Ped boi is attitude and clothing.

Hoodie + trainers + tracksuit bottoms + 50cc scooter claiming to top speed of 60 mph ridden with no L plates or insurance = Ped boi

Ped boi's typicaly have no interest in bikeing but instead want to go as fast as possible around and around the town center. most ped boi's get a £500 1.3 nova with a £1000 sound system as soon as they are able to.

You live and learn.


I thought this thread was something about pedestrians and islands for them to walk around.

I must be getting old.

Another thing that annoys me about those "ped bois" are the ones, who have their CBT, but instead buy a, rs125 or such like. They ride around in a hoodie and jeans, no boots, sometimes not even any gloves.

An rs125 can be just as dangerous as any superbike (de-restricted), because their top speed is one to which the average superbike rider would normally use... With no protection is is incrediably unresponcible, not in the least to say stupid.

Just becase you can buy one on your CBT, doesnt mean you have to ride one like it is a ped.

I saw someone on as rs250 with virtually no proper riding gear on today...I dont understand.

They're on 2 wheels aren't they.

A little gentle education is what they need from their peers (ie others on two wheels).

I'll start to dislike them when they hit 17 and decide to try and impress us all by driving about like idiots in a 1.1 Nova with a body kit.

[synaptyx]

Burberry should be wiped off the face of the planet. Mind you, if their uniform didn't consist of something Burberry, how would we recognise them?

Nah, not really... https://www.chavscum.co.uk to the rescue!

Mind you, Burberry's appeal to oriental tourists as well as old folk and veterans. Other than that i agree with most of you.

Ever seen a guy wearing burberry boxers cos my mate does and he just looks absolutely gay. BTW, chavscum with the guy clad in 100% burberrys except for the shoes.

Oh, if your ever in West Hendon on the A5, look 2 your left hand side as you drive past and you will see a 1989 Austin Metro done up like a Burberry's wardrobe
