I have the Brightass lights brake light and just added the Custom Dynamics LED turn signals and Tourpak lights all with RTB. I just gently squeeze the brake and all those lights flashing and strobing back there will make most idiots back off

Not really good for the bike......but I warn my wife that I'm going to "Bang" the a$$hat.....then I keep my throttle open.......turn the bike off.......wait 5-6 seconds......then turn the bike back on. The ensuing BANG and 6' flame shooting from the tail pipes usually gets them to back off. Like I said.....I don't do it often. But when it doesn't work, the lug nut option works pretty well.

i never leave home without a pocket full of broken spark plugs. toss a handfull over the shoulder... no more tailgaters. was stopped once but i explained harleys have been known to lose parts while going down the freeway. excuse didnt work. spent three months in county... no biggie. worked out... got stronger, hung out with my car and giggled about the *** hole driver that did a 360 across two lanes. he was on my back wheel flashing his head lights and i had no where to go.... felt i had to defend myself. thats my story and my attorney said to never change it... lol

Call bullshit all you want. You just need to carry two in your vest pocket.

Don't win the battle, but lose the war.
If at all possible, pull over, let them pass, don't flip them off, don't throw things, etc.
I know that's hard to do - my often hot headed self included - but there are too many stories out there of riders being maimed, paralyzed or killed in these situations.
Just not worth it.
I'll live to ride another day, and those clowns are going to hell anyway.

Same around here! They'd chase you down and run over you if they could.
