I don't know, but I bet I heard/read it on this forum.

I did just get a PM that said: "If you see kay... you beratch!" from a member with a picture of his harley barbie dolls for his avatar, but he didn't mention motorcycles, so that may not count. Seems like a lot more gayness here than among Harley riders in the real world.

In WV we have yearly inspections and the guy at the station wasn't going to pass my 03 R6 because it had a headlight out. If you now sport bikes, then you know that 99% of them, after moving to dual lights, have a low on one side and a high on the other. It took me a bit of arguing with him before telling him to hit the internet and look it up if he didn't believe me.

That's just sad....I mean, any place that's authorized to do bike inspections should really know bikes.

I don't like sport bikes for the most part & knew that about most dual-light setups.

While sitting in a town having a cup of coffee after a ride out east...someone pulls up on a green Royal Enfield and parks, another 2 bikers park next to him...1 of the guys jumps off his bike, yanks his helmet off and excitedly asked...Is that a "Billy Joel" bike?! At this point I spit up my coffee, told myself "I'm outta here", jumped on my bike and road-off...I felt bad for the owner of the Royal who seemed very insulted by that question.

I work in a Trauma/Surgical ICU. When co-workers find out I ride, they all say "you know you're gonna die one day, right?" To which I respond, "and you're gonna live forever?"

"It's not how long you live, but how well."



And I gotta add this comment I remembered:
Was walking though a local mall, helmet in hand, and a couple idiot gang-banger-wannabes go "So, what, you ride? Where's your bike?"

My response: "I don't have a bike, I just like carrying this around. Moron."

I find it ironic that the thread right under this one is titled "Buy a Harley, change your lifestyle"
