Thanks I will take a look.

Anyone have a good recommendation for a good front and back video system. Thanks.

I'm not one to panick, I went into survival mode, I knew to get somewhere safe, my local market was only a couple of minutes away, had I stopped straight away it would have been very bad, getting to my safe place gave him time to calm down, live another day. Cheers mate.

Can't afford a car even if I could I wouldn't buy one, been driving bikes for approx 55 years I'm not going to give it up now, I'll get video system fitted to both bikes, first time road rage has ever happened to me doubt it will ever happen again.

What if I don't want a car, what if I want to be able to drive and enjoy my bike without the fear of some crazy trying to hurt me and possibly others?

Because of the way I'm feeling about this I'm going to the police to file a report, they can't find him but it will help me deal with this, right now what could have happened is stuck in my mind. What he did could have hurt me and other people who were driving in the same direction. Hopefully I will get over this in time, at the moment I can't focus on anything other than "what if"

I'm not whiney mate, I'm sharing my experience and how I am feeling now it's in the past, if this helps just one person then I have done a good job.

In hind site I should have just smiled and said "thanks for that, have a good day" Doubt me not saying anything would have helped, he was crazy, the red mist is a well known phenomenon.

Difficult to let it go from your mind, how could I have possibly over-reacted? How many people would not say a word being hit by a bike very hard? Who will be next for this person, will it be a girl or maybe some Thai just going about his or her business? This person and his red mist problem will kill someone or he will pick on the wrong person, someone who will fight back, best of luck to him if he does pick on the wrong person.

Yes true, I've never seen someone get the red mist before it was very scary, I just wanted to get to a safe place as he was trying to hurt me, attempting to kick me off my bike, hit my helmet with his fist as he past, shouting all the time. I was just driving in a straight line when he hit my nearside wing mirror hard, straight away he just went crazy He admitted to being angry because his day had been bad. It's shaken me up quite abit, I keep thinking what if he had pushed me into oncoming traffic, I've seen many RTA's I don't want to be another one.

Never been involved in road rage, seen plenty of videos so I know what to expect should it ever happen and it has. I'm at home, can't sleep, this man went crazy he hit my wing mirror hard trying to get through a gap that was to small he instantly lost the plot, yes I shouted more in shock rather than anger, I was trying to get away from him but he just wanted to get me at all cost, shouting, he kicked me, hit my Helmet all the time shouting, I was not going to stop untill I reached somewhere I Knew would be safe, I reached my local market and pulled in expecting him to launch another attack, he ran over to me and said " sorry I've had a bad day I'm angry, I thought you wanted to fight me" crazy!! I'm in shock not many things scare me but this did, he was now calm but inside I wasn't, I'm not and have never been a violent person, never hurt anyone in my life and never would. Can't get this out of my mind, wish I had video or taken his reg number, I just wanted to get away from this person. No point going to the Police and reporting it, I just want to move on. Been driving for approx 55 years 21 years driving emergency vehicle's in London, driven all sorts of cars and bikes never been involved in Road Rage, hope it never happens again. How do I get over this, can't sleep all I can think about is what if. I feel sick. My worst day in the 18 years of living here

Imagine driving the BMW1000rr over 110 bhp it's crazy, same as the Ducati streetfighter again over 110bhp I've seen them driving so fast it's a blur as they pass you.

Not in my lifetime.

I've had the big bikes Z1000, Susuki GSX 1000, never went fast on them to old for superbikes now.

Oh no I've got mirrors, what do you do with them? I thought they were for looking to see how handsome you are.

Every bike goes way over the speed limit, it's all down to the individual.

I'm going to buy another set of eyes for the back plus bigger ears, lazada is great, get the Hospital to fit them lol

I only drive local, I do a few kms per day, love driving bikes ,love driving here, done many trips to Cha Am without any problems but a few yrs ago now.

Lol I'm going to take a course it's called " recognise the sound of over 100 different motorbikes plus 50 different cars whilst driving in traffic and its windy" can't wait.

I've got these boots or very similar.

It was in Chalong, Phuket, I've got all the gear which I don't wear I prefer light clothing it might be unwise but thats me, I always wear a good crash helmet, I've got a full face Shark helmet very good quality, I am not a fast rider, I keep up with the traffic, excessive speed scares me. I've got 2 bikes the ADV160 and the ADV350 both amazing.

Think one of his gf's

No I didn't kick out at him, yes I shouted more out of shock as it startled me, soon as he hit my mirror he went crazy, I'm over it, I'm still breathing, he went way over the top, he admitted he was angry because his day had been bad, I dread to think about the outcome if he had managed to push Me into the on coming traffic. Live another day, I will look into video for a bike. To be honest it's affected me, I can't believe how crazy he was, when we stopped at the market he was calm, first thing he said was sorry I'm angry I've had a bad day my day could have been very bad.

His comment not mine.

No problem taking criticism from sensible people but not someone that makes a stupid comment.
