We all love tight turns, adding shiny expensive bits to our bikes, and going a leeeeetle faster than Johnny Law would prefer.

But what is the one thing that you love about riding your bike that might be frowned upon by polite society?

For example, mine is the guy down the street with an Acura Integra with a ridiculously sensitive alarm system. Every third time I ride by his car it seems, whether I'm on the gas, idling, or decelerating, his damn alarm goes off. Make me grin every time.
Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

...and going through a parking garage to see how many alarms I can get to go off.

I like passing someone in the last corner, and holding that spot past the checkered for the win...not much else is that satisfying.  ;)

I like airing one out when leading on a group ride.  ;D

I wheelie at jaywalkers who try to act all nonchalant.  If I go by a car and its alarm is too sensitive, sometimes I circle around the block, wait for the alarm to stop and then set it off again.  Hee-lar-ious.   [laugh]  I'm also guilty of speeding to a read light and then aggressively downshifting and braking to a stop just to scare the shit of the too-cool-for-school folks in the crosswalk.  Oh, and when someone is on their phone and driving, I pull up next to them and drown our their conversation with my pipes until they hang up.

Wow, I'm kind of a dick.   [evil]

I also love car alarms. Specifically parking garages filled with 'em!

It was most fun when I'd just started riding and had an old Suzuki 750 with an open megaphone exhaust. ;D
