trianglechoke Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 I have to say, violence is never the answ....... mmmmm...... I get nasty when I come out of the shop and some guy, unknown to me, is casually sitting on it...... That actually happens.... But I do have a devastating good bike............ Anyway, violence is OK in this situation as long as it isn't a true kicking! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The guys with noisy bikes are generally overcompensating and likely to be violent. Transam being an exception of course I am sure he never left his ride rumbling and popping right were everyday folk were conducting business. Like motorists with sound turned up too loud. Supposed to be a sign of sexual inadequacy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Russell17au Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 The Swiss guy needs to be deported because what other trouble is he going to cause, he does not like noise but he has gone to Pattaya, so now all the bars and music and other normal noise of Pattaya must stop just for him or he will go and turn everything off so it is quiet for him. What a flipstick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guarantee you I would not be so audacious as to touch another persons motorbike and turn it off. wonder though if there were possible other concerns as well besides the noise. Was there excessive exhaust fumes? Whatever transpired between the Swiss fellow and the Bike owner, the outcome seemed to be a pretty strong reaction.

BBJ Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Thai guy completely overreacted, but I wonder if the the Swiss guy would have had the nerve to open a car door and turn the engine off. I’ve seen many cars running while numpty has popped to a stall or seven eleven. Don’t touch other folks stuff. Simple! Just for the record, my lovely sounding exaust and a couple of rev bombs stopped bike-guy selling critter snacks pulling out on me. Would have been t-bone time otherwise.

Kinnock Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Suspect this was a nutter just looking for an excuse to attack someone. In Europe and US touching someone's bike may be the start of a fight, but in Thailand touching another person bike or car is an everyday occurrence. Bikes are often parked in tight spaces, so they are moved about to let other bikes out, in car parks you need to leave your parking brake off so it can be moved to let other cars out.

He is not in the nanny state of Switzerland now. what a tool No he didn't 'deserve' a beating, no one 'deserves' for something so harmless... He did not escalate a situation by using violence himself. He did however respond without thinking carefully. His mistake; he thought it could make a minor protest in an uncivilized country. His actions were not violent but 'touching' someone else's property in any country can incite a negative reaction. In countries where the consequences for violence are so insignificant his actions were risky and naive and he paid and unreasonable consequence. The motorcycles overreaction was extreme and unwarranted but ultimately not understandable on some level. In a perfect world the motorcycle rider would be considerate of those around him, he would have turned off the motorcycle. The motorcycle caused the issue with his lack of consideration for others, the foreigner was silly to do what he did, but that does not warrant a beating and those who suggest that this is acceptable behavior are perhaps a little mad.

wvavin Posted November 27, 2017 Share Posted November 27, 2017 Hey mate! It is impossible you were being assaulted by a Thai guy because Thais are very peace loving Buddhists. Therefore, that guy must be a Burmese. Thais don't do such a thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They work for avoiding t-bones too! You mean those horns that no car driver pays attention to? A beep while nearly getting side swiped from a car driver that hasn’t figured that both mirror and turn signals are NOT optional extras! Doesn’t work, but a rev bomb does. I’ll stick to not gettin side swiped as I have before and continue with the tried and tested method, thanks. Unfortunately here, the attititude is lower class bikers on scooters. But a rev bomb from a bike that costs the same a small car sends a different message in my experience. Rightly or wrongly it works. I didn’t create the attitude, I’m using the tools I have to protect myself regardless how obnoxious some might think it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
