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.

Funny thing is that here in my area, the ricers are not the ones who want to race me, but instead, the SUVs, pickup trucks, and luxury sedans that want to have a go at stoplights.
