I figure this would be fitting to put this here and I need some level headed advice.
Today I went to change lanes as I went to the car in front of me put there signal on and considering I had already merged I pulled forward. Well this bloke did not like it so he followed with speeding past me on turn lane and braked checked me.
From this point I was pissed because he nearly hit me so I (i know filtered him and busted his mirror on his SUV). After this I'm just trying to make sure he knew that yeah im pissed. He pulls into the shoulder jumps out and starts hitting me. I am in gear so I try to put it in neutral and I end up just putting the side stand down and get off. I push him back to get them away from me and leave well then this other guy gets out and joins in as I try to leave kicks my rear tyre and I almost run into another car. Then they take my tag and run the intersection and get on the freeway.
I know the car and feel now am deteines to destroy his car since he had his irk uniform on.
Please give me some advice.

I have road rage, very bad but not on a bike. I wouldn't of hit his car. If someone does something dumb I honk and give them a thumbs up. Works every time.

umm, perhaps, don't be such an idiot next time and cool your jets
So if an SUV brake checks you, I guess your like " oh whatever"
I get sick of people trying to run a bike off the road. People gets pissed if I pull up to close to there car at lights. That will sometimes cause people to try and run me off the road. I normally try and just away from them.

Lesson here, if you're going to punch out a mirror you make sure you have an escape immediately after that's easy & clean. I'd rather not risk some asshat knocking my bike down while off of it playing rockem-sockem boxer in traffic.

I barely understood what you wrote but from the 2nd post I think I understand now.
So was this in the freeway or the streets and why did you stop? You could of kept going and ignored them...and how the fuk did they have enough time to take your tag off the bike? Did they have some powertools and find some time while fighting you to screw off your tags?(im assuming tags mean your license plate). Thats pretty crazy.
My advice find where he lives and fuk up his car and leave a nice note on the windshield.

No offense to OP or anyone else, but I always think that anyone who punches or kicks a car is an idiot...I don't care how angry you might be at whatever the driver did...But be smart about it...All they have to do is turn their steering wheel 30 degrees, in either direction, and you're smashed...
Consider that you got lucky, OP...What if instead of all that, he was some idiot (which there are a lot of) who was equally furious because he thought YOU wronged him so he pulled out a gun and shot you?
It's not worth it man. Give him a finger, cuss a bit inside your helmet, and drive off.
Better yet, knock on his window and say, "Hey sir, you should really be careful. You almost killed me."
Ride away, done deal.

^ ok so you told the police good, i was thinking he would go to the police and show them your plate etc? so whats done is done, how much for a new tag? any damage to the bike?

I was on public streets blocked in by traffic trying to get on freeway.
Look I know I was aggressive on my actions but sometimes you can't help but get mad when you are one bike amongst a sea of cars.

He looked at my plate for "taking it" and no damage it has track plastic on it.

Why the hell did you stop? If you're going to start a fight against a car while on a bike, you better have a better escape route planned out because you'll lose.
You've got to let that kind of stuff go. You can't win against a car/SUV/whatever. Not smart breaking the mirror, but...
When he hit you and you, I assume, were in gear, why didn't you hit him back? If you managed to get your stand down, he couldn't have hit you that hard. Sounds like he was a bit of a wuss and you could've... and shoul've... beat the hell out of him. I think it would've been easy to prove he instigated the fight since you were already in the open and he had to get out of his vehicle to attack you. You could've said the mirror was busted during the scuffle. Actually, you can still say that anyway, but there could be another witness to say what you did now.

Don't get me wrong dude, he sounds like a douche, but vandalising his car?
Would have been better to flip him the bird (or pull a Rizzo) and get the fk outa there, it's not like he can catch you...
This story sounds like a bad case of 'An eye for an eye'.
Beyond all the bullshit and slagging thats going on here. I would say that you will be fine.
If you tag is your number plate, wait till he presses charges or goes for insurance claim then charge for assault. should not have hit you even if you did dip out and break his mirror... the law lies on the shoulders of the last man to escalate the situation which is **** in most circumstances but good for you cos you pussed it and didn't knock him one.
just lay and wait, suck it up, don't make any sudden movements dude. don't feel bad either. human emotion is a primal and natural thing, all the nay sayers are whiney bitches that have probably never had a hard day in their lives.

I did hit the guy once he started hitting me basically he was slapping my helmet so I through him against the car, that's when his buddy jumped out and kIcked my rear tyre as I was leaving.
I am going to leave this issue alone I don't want/need to have something else to escalate from this.

I can't say I haven't had stuff go down that has made me want to yank someone out of their vehicle, but you have to let it go.
In this type of situation there is no winner, and there is no telling what the end result will be. Generally not good for either party.
You may think you have gotten away only to be run the eff over 10 miles down the road.
My advice is to take a deep breath next time and remember that when you ride a motorcycle you are the minority, and you have chosen to accept all the risks associated with riding.
