Default haters...

so i took the bike out yesterday to go riding with a friend. im 17 and i ride a 2002 883 sportster (i paid for it). on my way out to my friends house i stop to get gas and see two guys in probably their late 20's riding huffy stunt bikes. i dont think anything of it and got my gas. i go up to pay inside and i hear these 2 guys on their bikes sitting right by the door very obviously making fun of me. (i shave my head and have a goatee and thats what i heard em talkin about). then as i come back out they are still talkin trash about me and my bike! i turn my shoulder and as i get back on my bike and start it one of them screams at me "little boys shouldnt be riding big bikes they could get themselves hurt" by this point i was pretty pissed off so i just make sure i hit the throttle a little harder than normal and make them shut up.

im sorry for the huge rant but i mean these guys had obviously done nothing with their life i still cant understand why people like that feel the need to bring down people that have something they dont.

i paid for my bike with no help from my parents and i am damn proud of it.... but then again... they probably paid for their bikes too

Lighten up brother, chill. Get used to people talking about you - it will go on forever.

Maybe they were jealous of your ride - your shaved head, goatee, clothing, etc, yada, yada, yada.

If I let everything that has been said about me - get to me - I'd be in an asylum right now. or jail.

You should be proud of your bike and how you bought it. Many folks two or three times your age can't claim the same.

As for guys in the mid-20s hanging around a gas station on the BMX bikes......I'm guessing they were not home on vacation from law school or med school. whatever they hell they were saying, consider the source.

Man up. A "real" biker would have gone over and knocked their teeth in. Then when they were on the ground, crushed their pelvis with your boot. And finally urinated on their unconscious bodies. I think you need to do a search on this forum for threads that define what a "real" biker is. You clearly are not one!

They have no life, just wannabe's. Go on with your life and let them be jealous. You should be laughing at them for riding bicycles.

+1--Enjoy your ride and don't worry about what others think! As said above--there will always be people thinking or sayin something.

Just be glad that you are already on the enlightened path and riding a Harley at age 17. I'm sure there are many here who wish they could say the same.

Why should you care what a couple of swinging dicks think? Take the high road and ignore them... your blood pressure will thank you for it.

Let me see if I have this right, you were on your Sprotster and two guys in their twenty’s that were on Huffy bicycles were giving you a line of crap about your bike. I would have asked them if that was what their mama had told them, and when they got older and were out on their own maybe they could get a motorcycle too. Then I would have laughed like he!! and left. No matter were you go you will find that the supply of people who are jerks is always well represented.

Don’t sweat the small stuff man.
