Neither, I am a gun nut that just wanted to know which pipes I should get and what oil I should run.

To me a biker is someone that actually rides his bike. I know it's good to keep it clean but if you spend more time cleaning than riding I think you are a poser. Forget the tuff guy image. I've been in the saddle since I was 4 and considered myself a biker even then. I rode!!!! I ride in the cold, hot, wind and rain. That to me is a biker. Poser=fair weather biker.

After 40 years and over 400k miles on Hondas, I traded in my Gold Wing for a new Road King Classic last year. I liked it so much that I bought a Harley leather jacket and a couple of Harley t-shirts. Yeah, I guess that makes me a poser, but ask me if I care what someone else thinks.

I have not washed my bike even once since I got it - when it's nice enough outside to wash it, it's also nice enough to ride it. I choose riding over washing anytime! It really does need a good wash though. It's been in the rain, but that just leaves spots.

And nobody has ever called me a poser to my face, I can tell y'all that much.

Let me think.

I may be a biker cause I have been riding for 43 of my 57 years. Metrics when young cause that is all I could afford and for the last 15 years, 5 different harleys working up from sportsters, to softail to my brand new RKC. I do most of my own wrench work, got the tattoo from the 60's, shave my head cause the old long hair is gone, have drank a bunch of beer, cussed like a sailor and earned a living doing real tough manual labor. I chased women of questionable character.

But now, I am very respectible, have a real good high paying job with a very good salary. So I can afford a nice bike and some logo clothing. I still like sleazy bars and dancing girls. That makes me a poser.

Hell, it never occured to me, I am a bi biker/poser! My parents will be so disappointed.

I've been riding bikes since I was a kid, close to 50 years. First road bike was a 47 knucklehead, I've put alot of miles on motorcycles, crashed em, built em, loved em, hated em. I guess that makes me a poser.

Both have the potential for varying profits and losses. Best bet is to diversify, split it up between biker, poser, enthusiast, rider, cager, pedestrian, RUB.se there you each just earned
