I tell you what pisses me off. Is car drivers that when they hit a stretch of road that heads into th esun they spray their F-ing windscreens and I land up with a nice visor full of screen wash or lemon scented fairy liquid while also trying to squint into the setting sun.  And some of them have a double squirt just to make sure your visor is totaly opaque and that the bugs are nice and wet so when you wipe they smear better.  and it is normaly when you have just polished the bike.

Got to agree with you here. Maybe we sould carry a small squeezy bottle of  water, drive past and hope they have a open window and spray water over them.

Thats a good idea. Where you gonna keep the bottle though

i'm with you guys thats bloody annoying

[Shongololo]

mmmm .... what about some cooking oil on their screens? I think I'm going to start sneaking around at night with a bottle for glue and seal up all squirters that I find, if I start tonight I can be finished before I my kids start riding.

Maybe we could fit washer jets on the bike 'To Clean The Screen' and accidently spray others. I'm sure someone somewhere haas already done it.

[Shongololo]

somehow I don't think that would work as we would land up getting a face full from your own. What about rear facing ones ? as most cars always land up behind me

[Shongololo]

or what about some oil into the exhaust like the red arrows? could leave a smoke trail

a mate of mine (ex harrier techie) decided to smear grease on his boss's wiper blades, so when she used em, the screen went white!!!!!!!!!!!

Try hanging back a bit you dont get wet and get the benifit of better visibibilty.

Doesn't help if you are in a que of traffic trying to make progress.

this thread is making me laugh........... when I see a sports car with a 'oh I'm so cool bloke'  in it and the roof down I must admit to having a need to clean my windscreen thoroughly

I bet you have twin jets on each side and 1 of each goes right over the top of the car as well don't you.

I used to like my old Astra estate, could turn the rear washer to the pavement and spray someone walking along.

But it was never young fit women in t-shirts in the summer, never, not me guv.

[GRNINJA]

never ever had this problem never sit behind cars ... what a waste of my life that would be...... whats the point of having a bike if you sit behind cars ... I don't even sit behind car when I am in my car
