Yeah, I don't get SUV attitude at all. I've actually had all black Tahoes and Escalades try to race my bike. There was one time on the freeway with no traffic at all, I was coming up on him not too much faster, and he sped up to stay ahead. Yeah Mr. SUV, maybe you have yer engine bored out or a blower in there somewhere, but it's annoying to have to remind them that they better be beating Enzos to have a chance against a decent sportbike.

That of course was in my first few unwise encounters. Since then I've also learned such SUVs are fearless and reckless, and I keep my distance in case they try to remind me they have an 8 to 1 weight advantage in a collision.
