2 stroke terror

[polar]

So there are a few young lads, round my way with mopeds,
the noise drives me insane, it also, sets the dog off, which sets the kids off, which sets my gf off, its not good,

long story short, i had a chat with these fine young men, to kind of see what was going on, i may have mentioned something about them making a hell of a lot of noise, for such slow machines.
i was then informed that they are noisey because they are de restricted,
one of these gentleman then said, (in his own words) my bike is well fast mate, it would lick your cbr 600 in a race to 50, ill bet a grand on it.
on that note, i said good bye, walked back indoors, where i
proceeded to laugh, and laugh.

What on earth are these kids smoking, now days, because i want some.

original intentions were to maybe get the lads to stop driving by my house so much, that has backfired, if anything they drive past more, probably, to talk more crap to me,

any ideas how to get rid of them?
what would BCF do?

Steal some tyre spikes from the police, and throw kittens at them

Remember that I had 2 strokes when I was younger, probably exaggerated their speed repeatedly, take a long look in the mirror and be disappointed at the pipe and slippers old man I've grown up to be I reckon

I think a well aimed steel pole through their front wheels a few times will discourage them from riding that way in future

Bet his scooted wasn't worth a grand. Take that off him after you've kicked his ass in a race.

[jcewright]

offer them all or a race and defend your honour

Why are you posting on here and not collecting your grand man :O

RECORD RACE, WIN, POST, DONE.



After race when they can't produce the grand. say don't worry man, but just fyi, I see a ton of police round this area. so just watch your speed down this road mate.

This will ether work, or encourage them to drive faster.

I find there's nothing more infuriating than someone doing something annoying that I'd be a hypocrite to complain about.

They might beat your CBR to 15 if you don't launch right, but certainly not 50.

My experience of kids is that it's usually best to ignore them when you can. The more their actions cause you to change your behaviour in ways they can see, the more control they have. It doesn't matter what your actions are, short of murder.

I love 2 strokes and even 50cc sporty scooters!
I bet they all have a really cheap and nasty aftermarket race type exhaust fitted, and that's why they are so high pitched and tinny.

You can get decently silenced race pipes for most scooters, but the problem is that they have probably got crap exhausts in a crappy condition. The silencers on some of these pipes are re-buildable, and it makes a fair bit of difference when a silencer is correctly packed with new material.

I made my old Speedfight100 exhaust much quieter when I sorted out the leaky joints at the silencer and re-built the can with new wool material. It was still a very shit machine though, but I had to make it quiet as I could, as id attracted the local 50cc crew and been raced a few times, and the 100cc Pug could barely beat some of the tuned 50's, and I sat neck and neck up to 45mph with a Piaggio NRG once, which was too embarrassing to think about.

Must have been my biggest biking Noob moment, to have a 100cc scooter covered in Malossi sticker's and a noisy expansion pipe, big open carb and other tuning work, and still be no faster than a 50cc with a race pipe.

whoever invented a race pipe for a scooter, should be shot,
but your right,
they all have race cans that drive my dog nuts

I live on a main road and get a moped pass every weekday at 4 to 4.30am
It's not as bad as it sounds as I'm used to the constant traffic noise (lived here since I was born). I'm immune to pretty much everything except for him. Most nights I just stir and doze off again within seconds, bet some of my neighbours aren't happy though.
