Buy A Harley, CHANGE your lifestyle??
#1761
Yep , ah the memories of my oh so happily wasted youth
#1763
the moco needs the posers to stay in business...they buy most of the new bikes that are sold. the posers then provide well maintained low mileage used bikes for the rest of us. they are a very important part of the supply chain. accept them for what they are--some of them will even become bikers!

I found this on another site and thought it might be relevant to the original subject of this thread. It explains how being a biker isn't a fad but a lifestyle so I thought I'd share.
Biker Lifestyle:
It's not just about owning a bike or how much you spend on it...It's not about how many miles you ride a year or how many bike functions you attend...
It's not about how much leather you wear or how many trophies you have won...It's NOT about "Harley Davidson" or how many black T-shirts you own...
It's about the untraveled miles that lie in wait...And of all the People you met in your journeys...
It's about a feeling of Oneness: You and Your Bike. That scream and rumble beneath your ***...
That look of wonder and amazement of the crowd that gathers as you drive two by two roaring through the city streets...
It's about those lonely nights when you're freezing your *** off and wish nothing more than a friendly face to offer you a smile...
It's about the wind in your face, The fight against Nature and how much dust and rain You have wiped from Your brow...
It's about making your own rules, Believing in what we stand for...
A Stand we make against a system that tries to hold us back...
A system that cages our Brothers for senseless reasons...and struggles we have and will fight for to the bitter end...
It's about helping a Brother, Being there when all the chips are down...
Lending a hand despite the circumstances, Going that extra mile...
It's about our Freedom... Our Independence... Our Fight... Our Lifestyle...
It's about Honesty, Loyalty, and Respect! It's ALL about the Honor of Brotherhood!
Yuppies and Rub's read this and weep. We haven't respect for You...
You guys are just Men on Motor Cycles, NOT Bikers...
10 years ago You all hated us...
Now with Your "Hog Chapter's", "Wild Pigs" Clubs, and "Wanna Be" Rallies...
You wanna be like us...
So no matter how much that Bike cost... How far You trailer it...
How many miles you brag about... How much leather you wear...
Or How many mustard covered weinies Your Old lady choked on...
You are not one of *US* until you learn what Brotherhood means and LIVE it!

Yeah, so? Not everyone aspires to achieve that "goal" as it has been defined in this forum.

Thanks, bro.
This is what I'm taking about. And this is also what they don't understand, and never will.

This irrational hatred reminds me of Prius drivers with their "coexist" stickers in the back window. It isn't about the ride, it's about who you get to feel superior to!
Interesting observation: I pass a guy on the way to work that rides a Big Dog chopper - nice looking ride. When I pass him on my Goldwing, he takes great pains to avoid noticing me - although I always wave to him. When I ride the Ducati - he always waves - usually before I do. I can’t decide if he’s a poser, loser, or just another clown with an inferiority complex.
