It happens to most bike riders every time they get out of their driveway. You'd swear that people in cars are dedicated to killing your a$$.

I notice a lot of this same behavior while driving the Cobra too.

I don't know if it has to do with the size of the Cobra/bike or not. I do get the impression from some drivers that they think you have more to lose,so you better get out of my way attitude.

I do think having loud exhaust on both the Cobra and Harley do help some. Especialy when close enough to pull/run into you. If they don't see you ,they might at least hear that someone is very close.
Then you hope they give a $hit.
