RE: What is a 'biker'?
Putting in my 2 cents worth only because I've seen this type of threadtoo many times on this forum, a true biker rides whatever the hell he wants, goldwing, roadking,dyna,sportbike,etc. and he wears whatever the hell he wants ,full leather and helmut, gel gloves, etc, or none of the above,if he's smart he dress's for a fall.A true biker will respect all other two wheeled vehicles and will stop to help same if needed, even if all he does is ask are you OK? Live and let live, I don't care how long you've been riding or what you ride as long as you don't endanger my space, and even then I'm pretty tolerant at a distance, we've all been there once.I will never put down someone as a rub,posser or bambi, etc. because who cares they are out there riding and in the long run that benefits us all. A true biker won't ride past you when your helmuts down on the ground,a sign of distress in case you didn't know, and A true biker know's his bike intimately, it reacts as he/she does instinctively. If you have to think about about it, that's 2 seconds too late. Ride safe and anyone on two wheels is fine with me, just don't get too close.

I ride in all weather. Wear cut off shirts to show my Tats. Wear a dew rag most of the time and an old pair of Ray Bans. Mostly wear black and jeans. When I wear my leather jacket that has patches, **** on it after every ride. Wash my bike more than I wash my cage. I guess I'm a poser.lol!!

there is no answer to any of those questions because different people have their own opinions about each one of them. i say the heck with definitions and stereotypes. but i know what you're saying. every now and then you'll see stupid threads like this crap:

All the time I hear 'wanna be biker' and RUB or Rich Urban Biker etc, usullay applied in a deragatory manner like there is some kind of 'real biker' out there compared in some way to others.
So .. what makes a real biker? What is a RUB? What is a wanna be? What is the difference?

What is a RUB: Rich Urban Biker (most of the folks on this forum)
What is a wanna be: a Hondusch rider.
What is the difference: you figure it out.
