that is some fucked up shit man. I've had that happened to me a few months ago. Fucking punk kids would brake check me on the freeway and try to speed off. I was lucky, caught up until I could read the plates and back off. Called the cops, i'm sure nothing ever came from it though. What is up with these people?

I might ordinarily agree, except the minute I merged over in traffic (this is constitution ave in DC) he slammed the brakes. This is right after he tried to take me out from behind. this wasn't a matter of me tailgating -- I had JUST gotten behind him.

How was the damage to your bike and was the cost of the repairs paid by your motorcycle insurance? I ride through DC too and know how it is. you seem nearby, we should go for a ride sometime down GW parkway

not too bad -- sliders took all of it. right side mirror and passenger peg mount a little scuffed and a couple other scuffs and that's about it. Oddly, it killed the battery. It wouldn't hold a charge after the accident. Replaced it and it was all good. didn't get the insurance involved. I haven't really ridden much since the "accident."

Odd about the battery. Proof that motorcycles contain a still-significant amount of voodoo.

Hope you get back to riding regularly.
